Chords with lyrics
Fantasies
Tabbed by Johan
I pieced this together myself, and it's not perfect, but definitely does the
job.
Capo on the 2nd fret.
Standard Tuning EADGBE
Chords Used: A, C, D, Em, G+G (not too tough)
I think it's more fun to put your own spin on a song, but if you want to try
and replicate the groove of Rogue Wave's version, you'll want to strum
something like this for those long E MajorE Minor stretches (bearing in mind that I
have split the 8 repeating beats into the first 4, and the second 4, as there
is variation and I don't want that to get missed...I'm labeling them A augmentedA and BB
for later reference):
A augmentedA|1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & BB| 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & | Over and over.
D MajorD D MajorD U D MajorD D MajorD U D MajorD D MajorD U
D MajorD
For an even more authentic sound, (referencing the strumming pattern I
mentioned above), you can do some minor finger maneuvering that would look
something like this (where "THIS" is the "B" chunk of that riff):
1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &
E MajorE|-0---0-0---0-0---|
BB|-0---0-0---0-0---|
G+G|-0---0-0---0-0---|
D MajorD|-2---2-2---2-2---|
A augmentedA|-2---2-2---1-0---|
E MajorE|-0---0-0---0-0---|
One last thing, I count this in 4/4, so that's how I'll be referencing the
number of times to repeat things. I guess if you wanted to you could do it
in 2/2 or 8/8 but I was never good enough in orchestra to learn or care about
the petty differences.

I am in no way associated with Rogue Wave, their record label, their image,
name, or product. I just thought it would be nice to make it easier for
