Land of the Living - Roo Panes
He plays the verses of this song picking the B and A strings followed by the G
string (pun not intended), simultaneously playing the riff with his pinky. He
strums for the Pre-Chorus and Chorus. Brilliant song - love it!
Standard Tuning
Intro:
C
verse 1:
C
Where they go
That we shall cherish and that I wrestle
Don't want to be like the dust that settles
V2:
This empire of nothing
I find that I'm king of all these empty homes
That are ruled by my own flaws
Pre-Chorus
C
But you can't be an old fire
F C G
If you are burning with a new flame
C F C G
So remember that, you are never a forgotten name
C F C
Cause I know a land called the land of the living
F C
It's the world beyond those curtains where we learned to play
F C F
I hear the voices of my childhood singing it's the world beyond those
C
doorways
F C
Where we used, to play
V3:
Cause every moment
Is a chance to define what you want to become
You're not a slave to things you've done
V4:
Be brave and be bold,
Be childish and old it's the same old story
Every life needs a hope of glory.
V5:
But you can't be an old fire
If your burning with a new flame
So remember that, you are never a forgotten name.
Chorus:
