Temples – Sand Dance
Lyrics could be a bit off.
Note 1: Listen to the song to get the rhythms right.
Note 2: Verses follow the rhythmical pattern of the main riff.
Note 3: De parts in E in the bridge hint at the main riff. You can play around with that.
MAIN RIFF (both bars together)
[E] [F] [E] [D] [E] [E] [E] [F] [E] [D] [E]
[F] [E] [D] [E] [E] [F] [E]
Bass enters after two rounds:
VERSE 1 (same rhythm as the main riff)
From out the night sky
We were made open
That our reflection meets between two
Below the dark cries secretly laughing
The smile was passed but never on you
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/temples/sand_dance_crd.html )
CHORUS:
[E]Come to me when the [Fmaj7]lights are out
[E]Secrets left us in [Fmaj7]turn
[E]Circling the desert where a [Fmaj7]man goes now
[E]In a sand dance we [Fmaj7]move
MAIN RIFF
VERSE 2
Upon a question answers revealed
No given memory, wishes unsure
A lesser meaning left among feelings
Gave you a web left down on the ground
CHORUS
Short keyboard riff
[E] [D] [C] [D/B]
MAIN RIFF
BRIDGE:
[Dm]I could lie through
See more from you
We [E]have to be
What we have to want we have to see
Things that we wish we'd be
[Dm]Crash between you
Learning from you
We [E]have to be, what we
have to learn we have to see
Things that we wish could be
MAIN RIFF 2x
VERSE 3
Still in the night sky
We were made open
That our reflection meets between two
Below the dark cries secret in passing
A smile will last but never on you
BRIDGE
[Dm]I could lie through
See it from you
We [E]have to be
What we have to learn we have to see
Things that we wish could be
[Dm]Crash between you
Learning from you
We [E]have to be, what we
have to learn we have to see
Things that we wish could be
SOLO (over MAIN RIFF 2x)
MAIN RIFF with keyboard 2x
BRIDGE (instrumental)
Dm 2x \ 4x
E 2x /
