Chords
Hey, this is my first Tab and one of my fav songs!
The song is basically D and Em on the verses and it, though it can be strumed,
sounds good when you play it like this.
D Em
e|---3--3--3--3--3--3--------------| You should listen to the song
b|----2--2--2--2--2----------------| and try that against it. Played
g|---------------------0--0--0--0--| at a paced speed it should work!
d|--0--0--0--0--0--0----2--2--2--2-| Also use your fingers it helps!
a|--------------------2--2--2--2---|
E|---------------------------------|The chorus is another story I can't see the finger picking working for a beginner
but try it on these chords. It works it just sounds strange if not worked on.

Now here is the bit everyone loves about this song. The Steve Hackett bit when
it gets to, "You gotta get in to get out".
Also remember I have figured this out through the live versions but can be put
in the studio one just as easily.

Thank you very much for trying this tab. I doubt there are many with the Steve Hackett
bit but if you watch the video of Genesis Live zyou'll see how it done. Once again thank you.
