  CAMERA

  

  

  So, let's call this "riff a".

  

  D(4) !0-----------0-2-!3-------------0-!2---------------!----------------!

  A(5) !----------------!----------------!----------------!------0---0---0-!

  

  D(4) !0-----------0-2-!3-------------0-!2---------------!----------------!

  A(5) !----------------!----------------!----------------!1-----1---0---0-!

  

  That's the first eight measures of the song.  In fact, that's the bass line for

  

  all the verses.  If you have a bass and a guitar both, the bass should play

  this throughout (except for the chorus) and the guitar should not come in until

  

  the third line of the first verse ("when the party lulls...").  If you have

  just a guitar, then you should play this for the first two lines of the first

  verse.

  

  We'll call this "riff b".

  

  e(1) !5-------------5-!----------------!------3---------!0-----0-----0---!

  B(2) !3-----------3---!------3---------!----0-----0-----!--3-----3-----3-!

  G(3) !2---------2-----!--2-------2-----!--2---------2---!----0-----0-----!

  D(4) !0-------0-------!3-----------3-0-!2-------------2-!----------------!

  

  There is, of course, ad lib. on the actual recording, but this is the basic

  pattern.

  

  And this is "riff c".

                   (slide)

  e(1) !------------5/10!8-------------10!7-------------!----------------!

  B(2) !----------3-----!----------------!---------10p8h!10----10--------!

  G(3) !--------2-------!                   (pull-off and hammer-on)

  D(4) !0---------------!

  

  Also, throughout the chorus, there's a pretty typical sus4/add2 chord pattern;

  for example, on the D chord, do something like this to the note on e(1):

  e(1) !2-----2-2-3---5-!--3---2---0---2-!

  Do the same thing on the second string while playing the A chord at the end of

  the chorus.  On the C chord, hammer-on to the third fret on the second string

  (Cadd2) in a similar pattern.

  

  

  verse 1

         /From the inside room when the front room greeting

  riff a

         Becomes your special book, it was simple then

  

  riff b  When the party lulls, if we fall by the side

  

  riff b  Will you be remembered?  Will she be remembered?  (Asus4/A)

  

  chorus

          G               D C                        D

          Alone in a crowd, a bartered lantern borrowed

          G                   D     C                       A

          If I'm to be your camera, then who will be your face?

  

  verse 2

  riff b  I fell by your bed once; I didn't want to tell you

  riff b  I should keep myself inbetween th pages

  riff b  Of the green light room if we fall by the side

  riff b  Will you be remembered?  Will she be remembered?  (Asus4/A)

  

  chorus

  

  play riff c twice, then:

  

  verse 3

  riff c  From the inside room when the front room greeting

  riff b  Becomes your special book, it was simple then

  riff b  When the party lulls, if we fall by the side

  riff b  I still like you; can you rememeber?  (Asus4/A)

  

  chorus twice
