Song:Back on Earth
Artist: Ozzy Osbourne
Album: The Ozzman Cometh
Tabbed by: Jim Barringer
Note: This tab is based on the bass tab to this song, which was written by
[email protected]. I thought I should give him credit, because although I did
do most of this, I built on his work. Furthermore, my guitar is tuned a full
step down at the moment due to bad string choice, so take that into consideration
when determining playing key. You may need to transpose up or down a few steps
accordingly.
Intro: synth and bass.
Verse 1: Clean guitar playing bar chords
I have [E]fallen from [F#]grace and my [C]ashes are [C]scattered
No [E]longer a [F#]passion and [C]flesh[C]
My [E]flame is a[F#]live though my [C]wings have been [C]shattered
They [E]lay my [F#]body to [C]rest[C]
Prechorus: Clean or mild distortion, depending on your taste, and continue to use
bar chords
My [E]spirit is[F#] breathing my [G]senses are [A]pure
Like [E]reincar[F#]nation my [G]soul will en[A]dure
A (many times)
Ohhhh
2 different ways to play chorus, one is correct according to the CD but sounds
funny, the other is backwards but sounds better if you're playing alone
Way 1: My favorite
[E]Ba[F#]ck [G#]on [Bb]earth (you feel me)
[E]Ba[F#]ck [G#]on [Bb]earth (reveal me)
[E]Ba[F#]ck [G#]on [Bb]earth
[E]The [F#]spirit it [G#]never lets go
Way 2: Accurate version
[A]Ba[G]ck[F#] on[F] earth (you feel me)
[A]Ba[G]ck[F#] on[F] earth (reveal me)
[A]Ba[G]ck[F#] on[F] earth
The [F]spirit it [G#]never lets [A]go
Lyrics to the rest of the song:
(Verse riff)
Like fountains of sorrow the faces are crying
I'm witnessing all of their pain
Death is so final for only the living
The spirit will always remain
(Prechorus riff)
Bury me deep just to cover my sins
My soul is redeemed as the journey begins
Ohhh
(Chorus riff)
Back on earth
(you feel me)
Back on earth
(reveal me)
Back on earth
The spirit it never lets go
(Prechorus riff up half an octave or so)
Another dimension, a river of light
I'm twisting,I'm turning, my soul is in flight
Ohhhhh
Ohhhhh
(chorus riff)
Back on earth
(you feel me)
Back on earth
(reveal me)
Back on earth
(still breathing)
Back on earth
(re living)
This is my second tab, so any corrections or revisions are welcome, I just ask
that you credit me if you rewrite it. Thanks! :)
