Subject: TAB: 'Give to live' - Van Halen
This is a new version of 'Give to live', for the old one, which is
already on the server is pretty incomplete and sometimes a little bit
wrong. However, I mentioned the original tabbers name in my TAB!

GIVE TO LIVE
--------------
(Sammy Hagar)
Play this song acoustically!
Em A D G
I can see that you've got fire in your eyes
A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D
and pain inside your heart
Em A D Bm
So many things have come that torn your world apart
G A
So baby, baby don't give up [ Fill 1 ]
Chorus:
N.C D G A Asus4 A
If you want love, you've got to give a little
D G A
If you want faith, you've got to believe a little [ Fill 2 ]
D Em F#m A
If you want peace, then turn your cheek a little
Bm G A
You've got to give, you've got to give,
F#m Bm
you've got to give to live
Verse 2:
An empty hand reaching out for someone
An empty heart takes so little to fill
It's so much easier to push instead of pull
So baby, baby, don't give up [ Fill 1 ]
Chorus
Bridge:
C G
Each man's a country in his own right
D A
and ev'rybody needs a friend [ Fill 3 ]
C G
One friend, one god, one country
[ Fill 1 ] D Dsus4 D
no man need de-fend no, no
Verse 3:
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/sammy_hagar/give_to_live_tab.html ]
Em A D Bm
I believe in faith and destination
G A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D
So much of that lies on our own hands
So if you know what you want,
well then you can go out and get it
So baby, baby [ Fill 4 ] oh baby, don't you ever give up [ Fill 2 ]
[ "smells good here" ]
Chorus
