Ben Harper’s Glory and Consequence from The Will to Live
This song is tabbed out for a guiter tuned to E (EADGBe),
but Ben tunes his guitars down to D(DGCFAd) and then plays this
tune a tone higher, i.e A, but you can still play along
as if the tune was in G.
Riff 1
Clean

This is both the intro riff and the chorus riff, and the chord
structure also does for the solo.
the verse riff goes like this
C F G

B—-5—————1————————————-|
G—-5—————2————————————-|
D—-5—————3——–5—————————-|
A—-3—————3——–5———————-1–1–|
E——————–1——–3–1–3–1–3–1–3–1——-|
there are two guitars playing at this point, with the acoustic playing
the above riff, and an electric just playing the chords.
Lyrics:
C F G C F G
i’m more afraid of living than i am scared to die
C F G C F G
im more afraid of falling than i am of flying high
F C G F C G
every moral has a story and every story has an end
F C G F C G
every battle has its glory and its consequence
(repeat the above pattern)
im more afraid of loving than i am of being scorned
but i will keep on trying though i have been forewarned
every moral has a story and every story has an end
every battle has its glory and its consequence
i would rather be lonely and you have someone to hold
im not as scared of dying as i am of growing old
every moral has a story and every story has an end
every battle has its glory and its consequence
Maybe ill get around to tabbing the solo a bit later. till then
