Hi everyone here is the tab for Shakira's song Poem to a Horse, if I had to pick a favorite song by her it would be this one.
these are the chords played while the horn is playing figure 1 x2 e:----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- B:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------7-- G:-----------------------7--7-------------------------7--7-------------------7--7-----------7---- D:---9--9---x--x--x--x---7--7--x----5--5--x--x--x--x--7--7-x--9--9--x-x-x-x--7--7-x--5----9------ A:---9--9---x--x--x--x---5--5--x----5--5--x--x--x--x--5--5-x--9--9--x-x-x-x--5--5-x--5--7-------- E:---7--7---x--x--x--x---------x----3--3--x--x--x--x-------x--7--7--x-x-x-x-------x--3-----------
e:---------------------------------------------------------------------------- B:---------------------------------------------------------------------------- G:---11--7----9--6-----11--7--6-6/9------------------------------------------- D:---------------------------------------------------------------------------- A:---------------------------------------------------------------------------- E:----------------------------------------------------------------------------
She sings half of the verse without guitar then these chords are played e:---------------------------------------------------------------------------- B:---------------------------------------------------------------------------- G:---------------------------------------------------------------------------- D:-------------------7--7-------------------7--7------------------------------ A:---9--9--x-x-x-x---5--5--x--5-5--x-x-x-x--5--5-------x4--------------------- E:---7--7--x-x-x-x---------x--3-3--x-x-x-x------------------------------------
then.......... e:---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- B:---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- G:---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- D:-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9--12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12--14-14-14-14-14-14-14-14---x2 A:-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7--10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10--12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12----- E:----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
the first guitar plays this during the chorus while guitar 2 plays the figure 1 chords e:---------------------------------------------------------------------------- B:---------------------------------------------------------------------------- G:---------------------------------------------------------------------------- D:-----------------------------------7---------------------------------------- A:--2-4-5-7-9-hold--x2---2-4-5-7-7/9---9-----------2-4-5-7-9------------------ E:----------------------------------------------------------------------------
then you just repeat all that through the rest of the verses and the chorus and there is this lil solo at the end, that's pretty cool. e:----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- B:---12---10---8-----------12------------------------12--10--8--------12------------- G:--------------------------------------9(bend 1/2)---------------------------------- D:-----------------9--9--------9---7-7--------------------------9--9------9--7-7-11-9 A:----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- E:-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Verse: You're too far to bring you close and too high to see below just hangin on your daily dose i know you never needed anyone one but the rolling papers for your grass how can you give what you don't have. You keep on aiming for the top and quit before you sweat a drop feed your empty brain with your hydroponic pot Star out playing with yourself you get more fun within your shell Nice to meet you but i gotta go my way Chorus: I'll leave again cause ive been waiting in vain but your so in love with yourself if i say my heart is soar sounds like a cheap metaphor So i won't repeat it no more Verse: I rather eat my soup with a fork or drive a cab in New York cause to talk to you is harder work so whats the point of wasting all my words if it's just the same or even worse than reading poems to a horse You keep on aiming for the top and quit before you sweat a drop feed your empty brain with your hydroponic pot I'll bet you find someone like you cause there's a foot for every shoe I wish you luck but ive got other things to do Chorus: I'll leave again cause ive been waiting in vain but your so in love with yourself if i say my heart is soar sounds like a cheap metaphor So i won't repeat it no more |
