The Meaning Of A Ritual Chords
The Meaning of a Ritual by Villagers
(Tabbed by Dylan Colley)
This is the version from Villagers debut LP, Becoming a Jackal, with the unusual
chords he uses and all.
These are the chords used:
A: D: Bm: E: C#7: C#aug7(w5): F#m: F#m7: D/A: D/Ab:
e|---0----2----2----0----4---------5------2------2--------------------|
B|---2----3----3----0----6---------6------2------2------7------7------|
G|---2----2----4----1----4---------4------2------2------7------7------|
D|---2----0----4----2----6---------6------4------2------7------7------|
A|---0---------2----2----4---------4------4------4------x------x------|
E|------------------0---------------------2------2------5------4------|
The song comes in with organ, but it's then joined by acoustic guitar. I'm just
going to call the C#aug7(w5) the C#aug7 from here on in:
Intro: A D
A D
A D
My love is selfish
Bm A E
And I bet that yours is too
C#7 C#aug7 C#7 F#m F#m7
What is this peculiar word called truth
Bm D/A D/Ab
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/v/villagers/the_meaning_of_a_ritual_crd_ver_2.html ]
A D
My love is selfish
Bm A E
And it cares not who it hurts
C#7 C#aug7 C#7 F#m F#m7
It will cut you out to satisfy its thirst
Bm D/A D/Ab
For the meaning of a ritual so habitual and cursed
A D
My love is selfish
Bm A E
How it separates the earth
C#7 C#aug7 C#7 F#m F#m7
It takes every shiny stone but leaves the dirt
Bm D/A D/Ab
For the cowards in the corner who just don't know what they're worth
C#7 C#aug7 C#7 F#m F#m7
They've been twisted by a hollow kind of pain
Bm D/A D/Ab
Oh I can see it in their eyes but I ignore it every day, coz
A D
My love is selfish
Bm A E
And remembers everything
C#7 C#aug7 C#7 F#m F#m7
Like the first time it was moved enough to sing
Bm D/A D/Ab
How it dangled on that stage just like a puppet on a string
