X Japan is one of the most influential visual kei bands in the history of the Japanese music scene. Formed by childhood friends Yoshiki and Toshi in 1982 at Chiba, Japan, X was originally founded to play high energy rock music. Besides being one of the first Japanese acts to achieve mainstream success while on an independent label, the group is widely credited for pioneering the visual kei movement.
Their early music was speed metal, but later on they acquired a more symphonic metal sound.
Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Title : Crucify My Love Artist : X-Japan Album : Dahlia (Track 6)
Please note that I'm actually a piano player mostly, and that these chords are taken directly from the Dahlia songbook.
Intro: (Gb)///////(Ab)/(Bbm)////(Ebm)///(Ebm6)///// (each / is representatitve of one beat n the piece is in 4/4)
Chords fade out until the first word is sung, then they come in like this:
GbAb7 Crucify my love Bbm If my love is blind GbAb7 Crucify my love Bbm If it sets me free GbAb7 Never know Never trust DbAb/CBb That love should see a color Ab7GbAb7 Crucify my love Bbm If it should be that way
Second verse is the same:
Swing the heartache Feel it inside out When the wind cries I'll say goodbye Tried to learn Tried to find To reach out for eternity Where's the answers Is this forever?
Quick piano solo here: (Gb)//(Ab7)//(Bbm)////(Gb)//(Ab)//(F/A)
bridge:
Bbm7Eb/G Like a river flowing to the sea Ab You'll be miles away Ab/GbF/A And I will know BbmBbm/AbGb7 I know I can deal with the pain Eb7/GbAbF7 No reason to cry
(same as the first verse)
Crucify my love If my love is blind Crucify my love If it sets me free Never know Never trust That love should see a color Crucify my love If it should be that way
Till the loneliness shadows the sky I'll be sailing down And I will know I know I can clear clouds away Oh is it a crime to love
Then this:
Swing the heartache Feel it inside out When the wind cries I'll say goodbye Tried to learn Tried to find To reach out for eternity Where 's the answer Is this forever
Straight into:
If my love is blind Crucify my love If it sets me free Never know Never trust That love should see a color Crucify my love If it should be that way.
the ending is just the Bm7 let ring on til the piano fades out.
Okay, that was probably really confusing. Hope it works for you, if not, gimme a yell on [email protected]. I have MSN messenger, and am always willing to talk X-Japan/music ^^
