 Title : ANOTHER LONELY DAY
 Author : Ben Harper
 Transcriber : Christophe Decugis (cdecugis@club-internet.fr)
 This is an improved version of the tab already existing at OLGA
 The first version was written from,
 
   traps@ix.netcom.com (Arvin Chen)
 
 who I thank for the words I've duplicated the words from him.
 
 The differences are important :
 1 - I've tried to respect the exact rythm for the song.
 2 - This version is more difficult because there are more
 chords and variations between transitions in the song.
 3 - The result is a richer sound much closer to the original.
 4 - For absolute beginners I suggest the other version,
 which is very pleasant to play also.
 
 
 This is typically the song for acoustic guitar players to play
 around a warm fire, in the wilderness with the stars above...
 
 Ben Harper plays this song one step down (d,F,A,C,G,D),
 but it works perfectly with the usual tuning.
 
 The Rythm is very important to respect on that song.
 Work the song at slow tempo at first !

 Words:
 
 Verse:
 Yes indeed I'm alone again
 and here comes emptiness crashing in
 it's either love or hate 
 I can't find in between
 cause I've been with witches
 and I have been with a queen
 
 Chorus:
 It wouldn't have worked out any way
 so now it's just another lonely day
 further along we just may
 but for now it's just another lonely day
 
 Verse:
 Wish there was something 
 I could say or do
 I can resist anything
 but temptation from you
 but I'd rather walk alone then chase you around
 I'd rather fall myself then let you drag me down
 
 (Chorus)
 
 Verse:
 Yesterday seems like a life ago
 cause the one I love 
 today I hardly know
 you I held so close in my heart oh dear
 grow further from me 
 with every fallen tear
  
 (Chorus)
 
 
 It's quite hard to sing along when playing at the right rythm
 but if you manage it, you'll be rewarded for your efforts !
 
 Good luck and enjoy
