From: Peter Uhd Jepsen <puhd@frhe20.physik.uni-freiburg.de> Subject: CRD: Spit into the fire/Fury in the Slaughterhouse Date: Wed, 12 Jul 95 10:17:06 MESZ "SPIT INTO THE FIRE" - FURY IN THE SLAUGHTERHOUSE ------------------------------------------------- OK, here is another FTSH tune, a song which features very mellow verses and powerful choruses. It is easiest played with a capo at the 2nd fret position. The lyrics are shown first, together with the main chords of the song. Then I tab out the melodies, which the rhythm guitar uses to intonate the verses. "Spit into the fire" -------------------- VERSE 1:

^F#Burn a candle set a light ^F#keep on going against the stream ^F#be as mean as mean can be ^F#as long as you're not too extreme ^F#read the papers watch the news ^F#be informed and get the blues ^F#collect your garbage use the subway ^F#swaying you stay on the ^Broof

VERSE 2:

^F#Search for solutions for the future ^F#find resources drill for oil ^F#raise some powerplants and then ^F#burry them under the soil ^F#Rome is burning the emperor sings ^F#waiting for what time may bring ^F#his body caressed by the virgins ^F#laughing shy he turns a^Bround

CHORUS 1:

And spits into the ^Afire and hopes that he can ^Dcalm it down fights the flames with ^Awords 'cause they're cheaper than ^Dwater thinking he can heal the ^Aworld but the only thing he ^Dreally does is sitting on a ^Bsofa and spit into the ^F#fire

VERSE 3:

^F#Rabbits running on the green ^F#and jump directly in your pan ^F#turtles transform into soup ^F#enjoy them as long as ^Byou can

VERSE 4:

^F#Silent sitting writing songs ^F#'bout all the idiots that pretend ^F#that their words can change the world ^F#I think I'm right but in the ^Bend

CHORUS 2:

I spit into the ^Afire and hope that I can ^Dcalm it down fight the flames with ^Awords 'cause they're cheaper than ^Dwater thinking I can heal the ^Aworld but the only thing I ^Dreally do is sitting on the ^Bsofa and spit into the ^Bfire

OUTRO:

and spit into the ^F#fire (spit into ^A spit into) spit into ^E5it (spit into ^B5 spit into) and hope that I can ^F#calm it down fight the flames with ^Awords 'cause they're cheaper than ^E5water thinking I can heal the ^B5world but the only thing I ^Dreally do is sitting on the ^Bmsofa and spit into the ^Dfire is sitting on the ^Bmsofa and spit into the ^Dfire is sitting on the ^Bmsofa and spit into the ^Bfire ^Bspit into it...

----- OK - that's it, man - remember: calm verses, intense choruses and outro is the key point.

I didn't bother writing it all out, it is a lot easier just to try it out. It kind of falls into place after a few tries. OK, enjoy this great tune from the best rockband in Germany, any comments and criticisms are extremely welcome.
