"Your Sweet Voice"
transcribed by Efren Leonida eleonida@mail.sas.upenn.edu
Basic chord progression:
| Gb | B | B | B | B | Gb | B | B | B |
(the number of measures changes a bit throughout the song, but it
remains just Gb and B)
There's only two changes, one at the "If I could close my eyes" line:
| Bbm | Ebm | B | B |
and one at the "It's as close as I get to love" line:
| Bbm Db | B | Bbm Db | B | B |
The solo looks like this:
(played over one time through the basic progression, and one time
through the first change)
s=slide h=hammer on

(You can also tune down one fret and play open chords, where Gb=G, B=C,
Bbm=Bm, Ebm=Em, and Db=D. The solo is just played one half-step down)
Speak to me with your sweet voice
And take me through another night
Speak to me with your sweet voice
And I will surely be alright
If I can close my eyes without a fear
Speak to me with your sweet voice
Near
Hold me in your warm hand
And I could sleep with you tonight
Hold me in your warm hand
And I could sleep with you tonight
And all my earthly cares might fade away
If you hold me in your warm hand that way
It's as close as I get to love
As close as I get to love
Speak to me with your sweet voice
Again
[solo]
Speak to me with your sweet voice
And take me through another night
Speak to me with your sweet voice
And I will surely be alright
If I can close my eyes without a fear
Speak to me with your sweet voice
Near
Speak to me with your sweet voice
That way
Speak to me with your sweet voice...
