Person: Fabricio Braga
song: Sparkle
artist: Live
tab: This is a (another) great song from The Distance to Here. Although
this tab may look a little scary for some beginners, this song is not
so difficult to play. Anyway, you'd better play along with the cd to
get the correct timing. If you find any mistakes (specially in the
chorus part), please tell me.
Have fun,

I'm gatherin' up my friends today
and those who recognize the face
as the vision that changed my mind
from hate to faith
was as simple as grapes to wine and
sweet as
I'm gatherin' up my friends today
all these hookers and soldiers and swine
and would-be saints
all alone in their rooms that sparkle in
their eye
play a song that they'll come outside
to see if

to wipe our tears away
- Verse 2
the day that I was so sweetly sung
by the wind and the thunder moved by
"someone"
the feelin' of being lived was so strong
the giver became the gift, all one
the day that I was so sweetly sung
the wind seemed to whisper softly, "oh
son,
don't wait for the seas to part or
messiahs to come
don't sit around and waste this chance, to
see it!"
- Chorus
love will overcome
if this love will make us men
love will draw us in
to take our fear away
(same as chorus but without those slides)
LOVE
LOVE, yeah
LOVE
LOVE, hey, yeah
- Bridge
Eb5 C5 G5
love, this day now, this day that I was
so sweetly sung, I know, I know that

love will overcome
if this love will make us men
love will draw us in
to take our fear away, wipe our tears
away
(again without the slides and that Bb-C)
love!
and all my friends are here
in the city I sing my song
in the face of the hooker, the soldier, the
swine
I found it, I found it, I found love!!!!!
love will, love will, love will,
overcome
over come
