song: Sparkle

artist: Live

tab: This is a (another) great song from The Distance to Here. Although
this tab may look a little scary for some beginners, this song is not
so difficult to play. Anyway, you'd better play along with the cd to
get the correct timing. If you find any mistakes (specially in the
chorus part), please tell me.

Have fun,

I'm gatherin' up my friends today 
and those who recognize the face 
as the vision that changed my mind 
from hate to faith 
was as simple as grapes to wine and 
sweet as 
I'm gatherin' up my friends today 
all these hookers and soldiers and swine 
and would-be saints 
all alone in their rooms that sparkle in 
their eye 
play a song that they'll come outside 
to see if

       love will  draw us in 
            Bb      C
to wipe our tears away

- Verse 2
the day that I was so sweetly sung 
by the wind and the thunder moved by 
"someone" 
the feelin' of being lived was so strong 
the giver became the gift, all one 
the day that I was so sweetly sung 
the wind seemed to whisper softly, "oh 
son, 
don't wait for the seas to part or 
messiahs to come 
don't sit around and waste this chance, to 
see it!" 

- Chorus

love will overcome 
if this love will make us men 
love will draw us in 
to take our fear away 

(same as chorus but without those slides)
LOVE 
LOVE, yeah
LOVE 
LOVE, hey, yeah 

- Bridge

Eb5      C5    G5
love, this day now, this day that I was 
so sweetly sung, I know, I know that

love will overcome 
if this love will make us men 
love will draw us in 
to take our fear away, wipe our tears 
away 

(again without the slides and that Bb-C)

love! 
and all my friends are here 
in the city I sing my song 
in the face of the hooker, the soldier, the 
swine 
I found it, I found it, I found love!!!!! 

love will, love will, love will, 
overcome 
over come
