Maybe Tabs

(ver. 1)
Collective Soul



This beautiful acoustic song is in memory of Kib Browning, a songwritter as well as a 
friend of Ed's.  On the CD, the high E string doesn't ring very much, so if you want 
play exactly like the CD, omit all the notes that occur on the high E string.  I'm
going to omit Dean's part because his part is purely sugar;  If you listen carefully,
all his bits are a combination of Ross's and Ed's parts.  Also, with thos HFS pickups
of his, that ebow generates a TON of harmonics, so don't be surprised if you can't
duplicate the sound (unless, of course, you own a PRS).

                                   ACOUSTIC

VERSE #1:

G, D/F#, Em7, C9


G           D/F#           Em7          C9                G   D/F#    Em7     C9
        The sky now divides to bring you back into the fold.  Welcome home.

G           D/F#              Em7     C9                 G    D/F#    Em7    C9
   Still my need to recognize any comfort you must show       only    grows

           As4                A  C9                           C9
Guess I'll learn to accomodate  While my heart just sits and waits

CHORUS:
G      C9 
    Maybe  God you've found

G      C9              Am                    As2   G/B       C9
    Maybe  is all that you can offer now,    offer    now

VERSE #2:

G  D/F#  Em7  C9
G  D/F#  Em7  C9

G             D/F#            Em7        C9                    G   D/F#   Em7  C9
     Where am I to take refuge  when the storms of pain release?   Shelter me.

G        D/F#                Em7         C9                    G   D/F#    Em7  C9
    This blessedness of life   sometimes brings me to my knees.    Call on me.

       As4                    A       C9            C9
I have not the words to write   a farewell to you tonight

REPEAT CHORUS:

BRIDGE:

    Em7         C9
But I know that hearts are weeping,

      Em7           C9             G      G        D/F#    D/F#
While your voice is now singing on high.  Angel on high.

SOLO:

G  D/F#  Em7  C9 (Four times; electric enters after second time)

           As4                    A       C9            c9
And I have not the words to write   a farewell to you tonight.

REPEAT CHORUS TWICE:  End the song on a G and let it ring.
