Peter Hammill - Now more than ever (chords)

From: Eamonn Monaghan


Subject: Chord/tab transcription of 'Now more than ever' from 'Patience'
Date: Sat, 3 Jul 1999 19:56:50 +0100

Below is a chord/tab working of 'Now more than ever' from PH's 'Patience'
album. Naturally, the student will need to refer to the CD/Album for the
arrangement.

I make the guitar 5/4 riff (allowing for double tracking, harmonies)
starting with e on the 3rd (G)string at the 9th fret

e b, d# a, a b g a - the g is low on the 5th (A)string


e b, d# a, a b g f# - the g and f# are high on the 2nd
(B)string

The vocal verse section is a very manic set of strums with no third
something like:

Strums:
1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4
5
Esus2 / F#sus2 / Dsus2 Esus2 / / / (Em)
(the Em stab is at the 12th fret)
...coma and consciousness no hard and fast line......etc

then in triplet time:

1 & 2 & 3 & 1 & 2 & 3


&
F#sus2 / / Gsus2 F#sus2 / /
Gsus2
I don't know what to make of the dreamtime ... it

1 & 2 & 3 & 1 & 2 & 3


&
F#sus2 / / Gsus2 F#sus2 / /
Gsus2
seems as though I'm me but I'm .......

then just sustained strums of Esus2 (thankfully) before the chorus

1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5 etc
(probably a bit of whammy-bar here, more dissonance - aaaaargh!)
Esus2 Esus2
now more than ever happening inside myself.....

The chorus hints towards being major chords all of the way through
(although I
think the 3rd has been dropped for the sus2 and sus4 in some chords), I
make
it as follows:

F# sus2 Dsus4 Esus2 C#sus4


stored information or secretive clue.....

F# sus2 Dsus4 Esus2 / / repeat


so much will fit the design ...

Example: The Esus2 chord shape on the guitar looks something like this
played
at the 7th fret

0 = open string
X = not played

Esus2: F#sus2
Gsus2
strings
Lo Hi Lo Hi
Lo Hi
0 7 9 9 7 7 X 9 11 11 9 9 X
10 12 12 10 10

Dsus4 C#sus4

X 5 7 7 8 5 X 4 6 6 7 4

the Em stab at the end of the verse is played occasionally and is:

Lo Hi
X X X 12 12 12
