The War In The Gulf Between Us
From the "Inner Revolution" record
*Intro*
D F#m A
It staDrted long ago, you hGave to undersDtand
we thF#mought we'd make a life, we thGought we had a plan
we buDilt it like a house and fGilled it up with Dkids
the oF#mnly trouble is
I wCon't be back again G
Cause soDmething in my heart has tGmaken to the wind
and nBmothing I can do will Ebring it back again
noGbody ever wins the Gmwar in the gulf betAween us
Dsomething in my heart no Gmlonger could survive
those bBmattles in the day, the qEuiet in the night
I lGost the will to fight the Gmwar in the gulf beDtween us F#m
Am G Gm A
And tDhen it all began, the qGuarrels and the mDoods
I F#mtip-toed all around you; you dGanced around me too
and sDomewhere in between we fGound the time for Dlove
the F#monly trouble is
it Cnever was enough G
Cause Dsomething in my heart has tGmaken to the wind
and Bmnothing I can do will Ebring it back again
noGbody ever wins the Gmwar in the gulf beAtween us
Dsomething in my heart no Gmlonger could survive
those Bmbattles in the day, the qEuiet in the night
I lGost the will to fight the Gmwar in the gulf betwDeen us F#m
G What was the sense in keAeping alive
C something that never made us saGtisfied
Em sometimes it's better to get oAn with your life
I dCon't believe in hurting each otA7her all the time
*SOLO*

D F#m A
Now aDfter all the lawyers have Geaten our rDemains
and F#mafter all the nights have sGwallowed up the pain
then Dmaybe we will meet, we'll fGind a neutral Dplace
the oF#mnly trouble is
what Cwill we have to say? G
Well Dsomething in our hearts will Gmhave to try and give
and Bmsomething in our hearts will Ehave to learn to live
toGgether and apart wiGmthout another war beDtween us F#m
Am G Gm A

As always, fell free to make this tab better.
This is one of the most "pop" song written by Adrian, but I love it from the deep of my
'cause what you can find here are a very amazing words, talking about the end of his
(the following rise up is "May 1, 1990" from "Here").
I wrote only the chord just because the note and solo parts are very simple to find.
I hope you'll enjoy playing this with your acoustic guitar, singing with your friends
dedicating to your ex girlfriend!
Simple but simply beautiful.
Thank you Ade.
