Here's a tab of one of the songs from Peter Gabriel's "Us"-album, since I couldn't find it anywhere. Very easy to play a great acoustic version as well!
Tuning: standard
Em 022000 C 032010 D x00232 (or, Dsus: x00230) G 320033 F 133211 Am x02210 A5 x02200
Intro: Em
Verse 1: Em So, you know how people are. When it's all gone much too far
The way their minds are made. Still, there's something you should know
That I could not let show that fear of letting go DEm And in this moment, I need to be needed DEm With this darkness all around me, I like to be liked DEm In this emptiness and fear, I want to be wanted CG 'Cause I love to be loved DEm I love to be loved CG I love to be loved DEm Yes, I love to be loved
Verse 2: Em I cry the way that babies cry. The way they can't deny
the way they feel. Words, they climb all over you
'Til they uncover you from where you hide DEm And in this moment, I need to be needed DEm When my self-esteem is sinking, I like to be liked DEm In this emptiness and fear, I want to be wanted CG 'Cause I love to be loved DEm I love to be loved CG I love to be loved DEm Oh I love to be loved
Bridge: FAmG This old familiar craving FAmG I've been here before, this way of behaving FAmGFAmG Don't know who the hell I'm saving anymore FAmGF Let it pass let it go let it leave AmGF From the deepest place I grieve AmGFAm This time I believe GFAmG And I let go FAmGFAm And I let go GFAmG I can let go of it FAmGF Though it takes all the strength in me AmGF And all the world can see AmGF I'm losing such a central part of me AmG I can let go of it FAmG You know I mean it FAmG You know that I mean it FAmG I recognize how much I've lost FAm But I cannot face the cost GFAmGF 'Cause I love to be loved AmGFAmG Yes I love to be loved F I love to be loved FAmA5 I love to be loved FAmA5 I love to be loved FGAmA5 Yes I love to be loved AA5AA5
Note: listen to the record to get the exact timing of the chords. In the bridge-thingy, you don't have to play Am inbetween F and G all the time to make it sound right. In the last four or five lines the guitar changes to Am at the end of each line. I've put in Am and A5 just for the sake of variation if you're playing an acoustic version. I don't think it's actually on the recording.
