Song: Gallileo Tab


Song Title:  Gallileo
Artist:  Indigo Girls (Amy Ray, Emily Saliers)
Words & Music by:  Emily Saliers
Album:  Rites of Passage
Submitted by:  Mike Ator

Play in a straight-forward southern folk/rock 4-4.  The song is 
written/recorded in G, but it plays well in A and is more suitable to my 
limited male vocal range.

Tab guides:
F#m7   X44200
C#m7   X46600

Intro:

A   E  |  D   E  |  A   E  |  D   E

First Verse:

A     E             D       E
Gallileo's head was on the block
A              E              D     E
His crime was lookin' up the truth
A           E               D               E
And as the bombshells of my daily fears explode
         F#m7       D     E      D
I try to trace them to my youth

A             E              D              E
And then you had to bring up reincarnation
        A        E               D      E
Over a couple of beers the other night
    A               E           D
And now I'm serving time for mistakes
E         F#m7       E         D      E
Made by another in another lifetime

Chorus:

    A            E            D
How long 'til my soul gets it right
    E         A           E                 D
Can any human being ever reach that kind of light
  E           F#m7    C#m7    B7
I call on the resting soul of Gallileo
        D            E         A       E  D  E
King of night vision, king of insight

Second Verse:

Then I think about my fear of motion
Which I never could explain
Some other fool across the ocean years ago
Must have crashed his little airplane

Repeat Chorus

Bridge:

F#m7             D
I'm not makin' a joke
                   B7            D
You know me I take everything so seriously
      F#m7                       B7
If we wait for the time 'til our souls get it right
        E                     D
Then at least I know there'll be
        E       D            A
No nuclear anihilation in my lifetime
E             D      E
I'm still not right

Instumental:

A   E   D   E   F#m7   C#m7   B7  B7  D   E

Last Verse:

I offer thanks to those before me
That's all I have to say
'Cause maybe you squandered big bucks in your lifetime
Now I have to pay

But then again it feels like
Some sort of inspiration
To let the last life off the hook
Or (s)he'll say look what I've had to overcome from my last life
I think I'll right a book

Last Chorus (variation on lyrics):

How long 'til my soul gets it right
Can any human being ever reach their highest light
Except for Gallileo - God rest his soul
King of night vision, king of insight

    A     E  D  E
How long
    A     E  D  E
How long
    A     E  D  E   [A]
How long...
