Maybe it's you. ----- WE'RE THE SAME (Version 2) From: [email protected] (Henry Presente) G - 320003, 355xxx C - 032010, 3x55xx D - 000232, 5x77xx (only use the power chords if you're gonna use Em- 022000, 022xxx distortion + make the whole song sound harder)

INTRO

G C D Em G C D meanwhile, the lead guitar starts off what sounds like picking the G power chord, a few octaves up, then the C power chord octaves up, but then it loses that pattern and just starts going up and down hthe appropriate scales; you should make up your own intro to this song

you don't need to hear, what i say i don't have to ask, cause you'll guess, what i'm seeking you don't need to hide, what you know 1st HALF CHORUS: Em C G D baby, baby we're the same, when we fail in each other's eyes (shine in each other's sky) baby, baby we're the same, so you should not be surpriesed when i swear to you 2nd HALF CHORUS: Em G C *** i never told you what to do maybe it's me (sometimes it's me) maybe it's you (sometimes it's you) *** the chords sound alright, although in the 'maybe it's me' parts, you have to fool around with the rhythms, but it sounds better if you play a combination of the Em and G chords and/or then add-to/replace them with the following:

{tab: e|--10--8--7--5--3--2--|}

{tab: B|--0---0--0--0--0--0--|}

{tab: G|---------------------|}

{tab: D|---------------------|}

{tab: A|---------------------|}

{tab: E|---------------------|}

if you have more than one guitar playing, you don't need to play the B string at all 2nd VERSE: i don't have to act, so you'll know, what i'm feeling you don't need to see, to believe

CHORUS

SOLO

pick your own picking rhythm (or listen to the record) - i didn't include the number of times to hit each note, but the notes sound right
