Chords with lyrics
Let Robeson Sing
by Nicky Wire
from the album 'Know Your Enemy'
Tabbed by Brian ([email protected])
I worked it out on my acoustic, and I think the song works best that way,
although I saw James play it using his Les Paul on 'Later..'. If you do play
it electric, use the bridge pickup, through a clean channel.
This is the best song on the new album I think, although 'Ocean Spray' runs it
close. It's really simple: based on a D MajorD chord progression. This is my first
tab that I've posted, so any problems, please email me.
Main riff:
D MajorD A augmentedA
E:--2-2-3-2-0-----0-------------
B:--3-----------3--2-2-3-2-0--
G:--2--------------2------------2
D:--0--------------2-------------

Verse
Chorus, strange speech bit over the main riff, then chorus again
RIFF:
Sing it loud, sing it proud, I will be heard, I will be found
Sing it loud, sing it proud, I will be heard, I will be found.
End on D.
Try using Cadd9Cadd9 occassionally instead of C, either seems to work, and it gives
the song a bit of variety.
