Two Steps Behind Chords & Tabs
Song: 2 steps behind (Retroactive)
--------------
by: Def Leppard
tabbed by: Keiju (bunga_anciano@yahoo.com)
...Normal Tune...
...This file is better read with Courier (size 10)...
Here´s my idea of a total guitar tab of this song. I´ve used previous tabs of the song, modified them, organized them and put all in a only tab. This tab was requested by Justin Minnick.
The solo is based on the simpler solo tabbed by "unknown" (burrowpimp13@yahoo.com)
The Chords were originally tabbed by Scott Hagberg (hagbergs@stolaf.edu)
And Sharaf Hameed gave me the idea about the Intro
I want to thank all of them.
By the way the original song uses violin backup... it isn´t tabbed, of course :)
The Violin starts playing in the first verse very light but it´s better heard after the first chorus.

- Verse:
[A] [d] [G] [d]
Walk away, if you want to.
[A] [d] [G] [d]
It's okay if you need to.
[A] [d] [E] [d]
You can run, but you can never hide
[A] [d] [E] [d]
From the shadow that's creepin up beside you.

- Chorus:
[F#m] [d]
There's a magic runnin' through your soul
[G] [E] [Silence]
But you can't have it all. (What ever you do)
[A] [d] [E] [d]
I'll be two steps behind you (Where ever you go)
[A] [d] [E] [d]
And I'll be there to remind you
[A] [D] [E] [G] [Bass Drops and gets up again]
That it only takes a minute of your precious time
[d] [Silence]
To turn around, I'll be two steps behind.
[A] [d] [G] [d] (x2)
- 2nd Verse (play a bit softer):
[A] [d] [G] [d]
Take the time to think about it.
[A] [d] [G] [d]
Just walk the line, you know you just can't fight it.
[A] [d] [E] [d]
Take a look around, you'll see what you can find
[A] [d] [E] [d]
Like the fire that's burnin' up inside me.
