En hommage à Doc Schneider...

....que l'ai découvert hier sur ce site.

Je me permets d'apporter une petite contribution pour la magnifique chanson : "Whever you are". J'espère que çà ne pose pas de problème au niveau des droits (Oups!) (je ne pense pas puisque c'est MA transcription et c'est MON déchiffrage des accords)

Il y a certainement des erreurs dans la transcription du texte ainsi que dans les accords, je suis preneur de toutes rectifications bien entendu. Merci de me les adresser par le moyen qu'il vous plaira. Et si Doc passe par là...çà sera encore mieux !

Ce morceau n'est pas trop compliqué et se joue en picking comme vous l'aurez entendu.

Quelle merveille!




Wherever You Are (Doc Schneider)


Capo
: 3ème case





Do Lam Fa Sol


Do Lam Fa Sol




Do Do Lam

- I close my eyes to this December night.


Fa Sol

In this cold air, I turn my face up to the light.


Do Lam

I feel your lips floating down from years ago


Fa Sol

I feel my pain melting like the falling snow.






Sol
Do Lam

- I feel my feet rising
from the ground.


Fa Sol

This busy street it hardly makes a sound.


Do Lam

I hear my voice promising forever,


Fa Sol

And though we left this moment left me never






Sol Do Sol


- Wherever
you are you’re looking the sky tonight


Sib Fa Sol

You are never so far you cannot find that light


Lam Fa

And when it grows dark it shines where you are


Do Fa Rém(7) Sol

Even from this distance I can still see that star


Do Lam Fa
Sol

from wherever you are



- I lost your face somewhere long ago

And of your eyes, the color now is all I know

But in this night, this falling snow can bring you back

And in this light all the rest just fades to black.



- It is the hope that I remember here

It is the life that I remember breaking clear

It was your hand I felt within my hand

A burning warm burning down this frozen land



- Wherever you are you’re looking the sky tonight

You are never so far that you cannot find that light

And when it grows dark it shines where you are

and even from this distance I can still see that star


Do Lam
Fa Sol

from wherever you are





Lam Do Sol


- On this
very night I am imagining the sound


Lam Fa Sol

There are eyes upon the light and feet are rising from the ground.






- Wherever
you are you’re looking the sky tonight

You are never so far that you cannot find that light

And when it grows dark it shines where you are


Even from
this distance I can still see that star


Fa

Wherever you are


Sol


Wherever
you are

Wherever you are

Si quelqu'un est intéressé, je peux l'envoyer en pièce jointe à un message.
Les plus courageux feront le petit effort pour remettre le tout en place.

Sam and Rene

After countless attempts, I have broken through the JT Forum computer defense system, so that I can finally respond on the site and thank you and all of the others for your kind response to my songs!

Sam

You are a publicity machine -- I thank you for all of your notes and good press for my new CD.

I loved you note which said you found my singing on the first CD to be peuvait un peu -- which I understand means " a little fishy"! That made me laugh.

thank you also for helping me break into this site with a new email -- if anyone wants to email me, the best way is dschneider@kslaw.com.

I can only read French un peu --but I have loved your notes and comments. This site seems to be the crossroads of kindred souls, and I am glad my feet knew where they wanted me to go.

Thank you, Sam

Rene

I love that you have already worked out the chords to a song just released last week. That is such a joy to me!

Here below is how Eugene Ruffolo plays Wherever You Are -- it is very cool and fun.

I have not translated your entire note, but I understand your "drfit". C'est fantastique.

Many thanks for your enthusiasm.

Doc

And in this light,
all the rest just fades to black.


It is the hope

It is the life

It was your hand
I felt within my hand
A burning warm
burning down this frozen land

(Chorus)

and feet are rising from the ground.
