Played behind the lyrics:
(this little intro speech comes before the music:)
"Good afternoon and welcome. Today we celebrate the songs of two of my
head parishoners, Royston and Antony Langdon. In this song they deal
candidly with themes of brotherly love and homosexuality. Turn now to
page number 372, Space is the Place."
Riff#1: G#
C C# FmEmD#mDm and when you kiss your other lover
[G#]I will [C]try to under[C#]stand[FmEmD#mDm]
[G#]and just because you're f*cking him
[C]it doesn't mean you don't love [C#]me[FmEmD#mDm]
[G#]do what you want, b[C]e what you want to [C#]be[FmEmD#mDm]
Riff#2
[A]space is the [C#]place that i will [D]go when i feel[F#mFmEmD#m] all alone
[A]nobody [C#]calls me on the [D]phone and i feel[F#mFmEmD#m] all alone
[A]medi[C#]tating in the [D]zone,[F#mFmEmD#m] all alone
[A]space is the [C#]place where i will [D]go[F#mFmEmD#m]
Bridge:
play A and D in a funky little reggae rhythm
Continue with verse and chorus pattern for the rest of the lyrics:
and just because you kiss your brother,
it doesn't mean to say you're gay
and just because you're f*cking him
it doesn't mean you don't love me
do what you want, be what you want to be
space is the place that i will go when i feel all alone
nobody calls me on the phone and i feel all alone
meditating in the zone, all alone
space is the place where i will go
(chorus part for the end)
space is the place in your face
space is the place in your face
space is the place...etc.
oy! oy! oy! oy!
If you play along with the album, then eliminate riff#1 completely and
just use the chorus riff for the whole thing. when i saw them in concert,
they used riff#1, but it's not on the album. also, you can spruce up the
little shuffle part by playing it like this: FmEmDmD#m instead of FmEmD#mDm
(and the same goes for the chorus part: F#mFmD#mEm
there it is, any questions, comments, or religious disbeliefs can be
