Keziah Jones (born Olufemi Sanyaolu on January 10, 1968 in Lagos, Nigeria) is a Nigerian singer-songwriter and guitarist. He describes his musical style as "Blufunk", which is a fusion between raw blues elements and hard, edgy funk rhythms. Also his Nigerian roots in Yoruba music and soul music can be considered a major influence on his sound.
He is known for his distinctive style of guitar playing, including his percussive right-hand technique which is similar to a bass guitarist's slapping technique.

#----------------------------------PLEASE NOTE---------------------------------# #This file is the author's own work and represents their interpretation of the # #song. You may only use this file for private study, scholarship, or research. # #------------------------------------------------------------------------------# #
Em : 022000 EmVII : 779987 Am : 002210 AmV : 577555 BmVII : 799777 Bm7VII : 779777
To play this song like the master, play Em with your third and fourth finger on the 4th and 5th string, then slide while continuing to play the first three strings G, B, E, up to the 14th fret. Then play only the three first strings with your 1st finger crossing them at the 12th fret. Come back to Am and then go to BmVII with your fingers sliding in the Am position... ! It's too complicated to explain in a text. Just hear the song and try it !
It should look like :
E|--0--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-12-12-0-0-0-7-7--5-5--0---------------------.. B|--0--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-12-12-1/////7-7--5-5--0---------------------.. G|--0--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-12-12-2/////7-7--5-5--0 and do it again.--.. D|--2/////////14-----------2/////9-9--7-7--2---------------------.. A|--2/////////14-----------0-----9-9--7-7--2---------------------.. E|--0--0-0-0-0-0-----------0-----7-7--5-5--0---------------------..
//// : means slow and regular slide
Once you've got it, you simply play it again and again and start singing :
Part 1 ------ Em (slide etc.) Am BVII AmV Em (slide etc.)... Please tell me where... life is ?
Em (slide etc.) Am BVII AmV Em (slide etc.)... I'm feeling scared... like this
Em (slide etc.) Am BVII AmV Em (slide etc.)... Why do you ask ?... Sadness
Em (slide etc.) Am BVII AmV Em (slide etc.)... Why should you care ?... This madness kills
Part 2 : ------ EmVII AmV Bm7VII EmVII and do it again Talking like one of those reasons Looking like one of those dreams looking like one of those moments
AmVII AmV (let ring) You can't fool me
And then on again with the sliding stuff (part 1's rythm):
I'd like to see... Spring When will you be with... me ? Why should you care ?... Madness Why do you ask ?... This sadness kills
With part 2's rythm :
You're lyin' You're lyin' You're lyin' You're lyin' Moments, dreams and reasons Moments + dreams make love Come in seasons Yeah ! Seasons
With part 1's rythm :
Where do we go... from here ? These lonely roads... I fear Wipe your tears Don't you worry I'll always be here For you
With part 2's rythm :
You're lyin' You're lyin' You're lyin' You're lyin' Look at your face ! You're looking like one of those reasons (You're cryin') You're looking like one of those dreams (Look at your face) You're looking like one of those moments You can't fool me...
Note : ---- For part 2's rythm, on a 4/4 measure, you play : EmVII : 4 times AmV : 3 times Bm7VII: 1 time And on again !
In fact this song is a dialog between "Chance" and "Destiny". Hear the song, you'll recognize who tells what... This file is of course an approximation, from what I hear. Any corrections, please E-mail me.
