Into My Hands

Transcribed by James Dignan.

Here's one that's simple enough for even the most novice of guitarists

Gsus is played as 330003


G             Gsus  G      G               Gsus  G
I take love into my hands, journey back to winterland
G              Gsus    G     G               Gsus    G
Cut my losses, grow my hair, see some man to take me there
      C          G                C             G
As it gets so uncertain, when the girl gets too near
     C             G                C        G
It's never as good as I hoped or as bad as I feared


G                   Gsus       G       G                  Gsus     G
Some seek sleek and slithering charms, out of reach their grasping arms
    G                   Gsus      G           G            Gsus  G
Our skin like milk, our breath of words, like happy, awful and absurd
      C          G                C             G
As it gets so uncertain, when the girl gets too near

It's never as good as I hoped or as bad as I feared

F  C  G  F  C  G  F  C  G  F  C  G
G  Gsus  G  Gsus  G Gsus  G  Gsus

              G               Gsus  G      G            Gsus       G
You know it's always out here in my head, stupid bloody things get said
     G             Gsus   G      G              Gsus     G
Then drifting on a summer pond I notice that my love has gone
      C          G                C             G
As it gets so uncertain, when the girl gets too near

It's never as good as I hoped or as bad as I feared

F  C  G  F  C  G  F  C  G  F  C  G

G             Gsus  G      G               Gsus  G
I take love into my hands, journey back to winterland

G  Gsus  G  Gsus

G             Gsus  G      G               Gsus  G
I take love into my hands, journey back to winterland


G  Gsus  G  Gsus

G             Gsus  G      G               Gsus  G
I take love into my hands, journey back to winterland


G  Gsus  G  Gsus

For the more proficient :), there are several picking parts, notably the
intro/ending, where there are two guitars:

|------------------|------------------|
|------------------|------------------|
|---0---0---0---0--|---0---0---0---0--|
|--0---0-0-0---0-0-|--0---0-0-0---0-0-|
|-----2---3---2----|-----2---3--------|
|-3----------------|-3-----------3----|

and

|-----0-------3----|-----0------------|
|-013--310-13------|-013--310-13------|
|------------------|-------------0----|
|------------------|------------------|
|------------------|------------------|
|------------------|------------------|


Then the bridge part, (chords F C G) which has a slidey part ( an equals
sign here means slide to the second note...Frets are numbered in
hexadecimal, so A=10, B=11 etc)

|-3=A-9=A-9=A-3-|-3=5-3=5--------|
|---------------|---------5=8----|
|---------------|----------------|
|---------------|----------------|
|---------------|----------------|
|---------------|----------------|

Then back to the G, Gsus pattern for a frightening lead part (done on
12-string, so this is only approximate)

|----------03-7----|-CA8A87-ZZZ-3=F---|
|-------013---8----|----------------h-|
|-----02------9----|----------------h-|
|---02-------------|------------------|
|-23---------------|------------------|
|------------------|------------------|

ZZZ is a trill played on the 10th, 8th and 7th frets somehow, possibly with
the 2nd and 3rd strings in there too. The slide goes up from the 3rd to the
15th fret, and is followed by 5th fret harmonics on the 2nd and 3rd
strings. OK, I admit it MWP is a bloody good 12-string player! Good luck!!!

If you've a friend who wants to play along with you, get them to play this in the followuing frets:

D CHORD                    Am7add6 CHORD
-10-                        -0-

 -0-                        -0-

D Am7add6 D Am7add6

D
Badman's woman with that look in her eye
Am7add6
You stop to wonder as she passes by
D
Something inside you is never the same
Am7add6
Something outside you is always to blame
D
Follow her home where she lives with some friends
Am7add6
They have some good things to add to the blend
D
The games expanded, invaded the place
Am7add6
You're the only one who's forgotten his face

Chorus:

              Em7   G         D        G
You're saying no no no I must be on my way
       Em7        G                D    A7
But it really has been a pleasant night
        Em7   G                 D         G
And you go so slow hope they'll ask you to stay
    Em7          G            D
And indifference gives you a fright

The same pattern continues for the other verses:

Walking outside you come to a door
You go inside and you wonder what for
At least it's good to be out of the wind
You turn around and the clocks all begin

Just like the winter your memory thaws
Just like the ocean your memory pours
So many pieces to match or to find
So many doubts to have in one mind

It's hard to see how the tables have turned
It's hard to see how the people have learned
It's hard to watch the past drizzling past
It's hard to watch them picking the cast

And it stacks up badly that it never makes sense
You sense that sensation is who's paying the rent
And she beckons to you with her fingers and lies
She says: can't you slice the price of your paradise

The sliding lead break in the second and third verses is:

|-----------------|
|-3=>5------------|
|------2=>4-------|  repeated
|-----------4-2-0-|
|-----------------|
