You need a guitar of at least 20 frets to play this, elsewise try 1 octave lower or use bendings for notes on 20th fret Song Structure

Chorus: ------- 1 x Part 3 Dm I hear the word for love G# I hear the word for death Dm A# G But I don't hear any answer 1 x Part 4 Dm While death can talk of la mort G# A# and love can whisper l'amour G F D Gm The floor has lost its dancers 2.
