CALEB- Sonata Arctica Acoustic version by sinForge xJp Standard tuning, Capo 2, 4, 5 & 6 (Changes where indicated) *I know.. 4 capo positions is a bit much, and I DID try to at least avoid the switch to 5 in the middle.. Unfortunately, there wasn't a good-sounding way around it.. But honestly, none of the moves are really that much hassle =) Also, in the actual song, the guitar is pretty stationairy in the verses, and all the tonality is in the keyboards.. so I considered the tonality when doing the verse.. I've also MAPPED OUT the chords for a change =D Enjoy!! 022000 Dadd11 x54030 022100 Dadd11* x54035 x24432 xx0231 x24400 xx0232 x24442 x02210 x13331 x02200 x32010 x02220 * x32013 133211 x20010 244222 x46664 320033 CAPO 4 e|-----------------|--------------|-----------------|- B|-----------------|--------------|-----------------|- G|-------------0---|--------------|---------0-------|- D|---------9-------|--------------|-------------4---|- A|-----7-----------|------2-------|-----2-----------|- E|-0---------------|--------------|-0---------------|- There is a man in this world, who has never smiled You may know his tragedy, the later years, by heart e|-----0-----0---------2-----2-----|-----3-----3---------5---5-3-2-0-|- B|---0-----0-----0---0-----0-----0-|---1-----1-----1---3-------------|- G|---------------------------------|---------------------------------|- D|-2-----2-----2-------------------|---------------------------------|- A|-----------------2-----2-----2---|-3-----3-----3---5-----5---------|- E|---------------------------------|---------------------------------|- x2 In the beginning, there was a mother, a father, and a child A troubled little silent boy, whose life they worked to destroy e|-----0-----0---------------------|---------------------------------|- B|---------------------3-----3-----|-----0-----0---------------------|- G|---2-----2-----2---0-----0-----0-|---------------------2-----2-----|- D|---------------------------------|---2-----2-----2---4-----4-----4-|- A|-0-----0-----0---2-----2-----2---|-3-----3-----3---5-----5-----5---|- E|---------------------------------|---------------------------------|- Known to us from this day on by his father, Caleb.. -----0-----0---------------------|---------------------------------||- ---------------------3-----3-----|-----0-----0---------------------||- ---2-----2-----2---0-----0-----0-|---------------------2---2-0-----||- ---------------------------------|---2-----2-----2---4---------4-2-||- -0-----0-----0---2-----2-----2---|-3-----3-----3---5-----5---------||- ---------------------------------|---------------------------------||- .. .. *..
