"They Stood Up for Love" by "LIVE"
Album: "The Distance to Hear"

Tuned down half a step. Eb MajorEb AbAb DbDb GbGb Bb majorBb Eb.

This, in my opinion, is the best song on the whole album excluded
"the dolphin's cry". The intro is correct even though it doesn't sound
exactly right. I watched how the guitarist played the song on the
music video and it fits. The organ that is used in the intro of the
song made it very hard to tell what the guitar was doing. But if you
tune your guitar down half a step and play with the album, it works.
I have also included alternate ways you can play the song. So, you
can either choose between the two different ways of playing that I have
tabbed out, or, you can grab a buddy and each take a different part.
It's up to you. Comments and suggestions would be greatly appreciated
if you'd like to email me. Thanks. Enjoy.

Intro/Verse: G5, F5, C5....G5, C5, F5F5
(the way it is played on the album)(use heavy distortion)

(G, F, and C majorC major chords can be strummed over top of is being
played if you wish... but they have to be used in the same
order as the power chords shown above!)
