WE'RE THE SAME (Version 2)


G - 320003, 355xxx
C - 032010, x355xx
D - 000232, x577xx (only use the power chords if you're gonna use
Em- 022000, 022xxx  distortion + make the whole song sound harder)

INTRO: G C D Em
       G C D
       meanwhile, the lead guitar starts off what sounds like picking the G
       power chord, a few octaves up, then the C power chord octaves up,
       but then it loses that pattern and just starts going up and down hthe
       appropriate scales; you should make up your own intro to this song

VERSE:

    G               C              D             Em
  e-------------------------------------------------------
  B---------------0-1--------------3-------------3-3-1-0-- (you can choose
  G-0---------0-2----------------------------------------2  either octave)
  D-------------------------------------------------------
  A-------------0-2-3--------------5-------------5-5-3-2-0
  E-3---------3-------------------------------------------
    i don't have to speak, ....
    G               C              D
  e-------------------------------------------------------
  B---------------0-1--------------3----------------------
  G-0---------0-2-----------------------------------------
  D-------------------------------------------------------
  A-------------0-2-3--------------5----------------------
  E-3---------3-------------------------------------------
    you don't need to hear....

    i don't have to ask, cause you'll .....

1st HALF CHORUS:
 Em                   C             G                     D
 baby, baby we're the same, when we ....
                                   (shine in each other's sky)
 baby, baby we're the same, so  you ....
                                                                  to you
2nd HALF CHORUS:
 Em       G        C     ***
 i never  told ...

 maybe .....
 (sometimes .....

 maybe it's ....

*** the chords sound alright, although in the 'maybe it's me' parts, you
    have to fool around with the rhythms, but it sounds better if you play
    a combination of the Em and G chords and/or then add-to/replace them
    with the following:

     e--10--8--7--5--3--2--
     B--0---0--0--0--0--0--
     G---------------------
     D---------------------
     A---------------------
     E---------------------

    if you have more than one guitar playing, you don't need to play the
    B string at all

2nd VERSE:

   i don't have to act, so you'll ......

CHORUS

SOLO:
   pick your own picking rhythm (or listen to the record) - i didn't
   include the number of times to hit each note, but the notes sound right

   e--------------------------------------------------------------
   B--------------------------------------------------------------
   G--------------------------------------------------------------
   D---5--7--9--4--5--4--2--0--2--5--4--5--4s-0-------------------
   A---------------------------------------------3--2-----0--2--5-
   E---------------------------------------------------3----------
