You can't keep a good song down! Todd re-arranged this chestnut for WAT, lowering the key from C to A to enhance That Relaxing Feel. Note the subtle but spicy reharmonization during the solo. I've notated Jesse Gress's solo from the record, but there's gotta be an easier way to play it than I've indicated. ------------------------------------------------------------------ I Saw The Light (bossa nova version) composed by Todd Rundgren from the album "With A Twist") (intro:) E/A Em/A E/A Em/A Bm9 E13 Bm9 E13 It was late last night, I was feeling something wasn't right Bm9 E13 Amaj7 C#m7 C9 There was not another soul in sight, only you, only you Bm9 E13 Bm9 E13 So we walked along, though I knew there was something wrong Bm9 E13 A7 And a feeling hit me oh so strong about you Dmaj7 C#m7 F#m7 B7 Then you gazed up at me and the answer was plain to see Bm9 E13 E/A Em/A E/A Em/A Cause I saw the light in your eyes Though we had our fling I just never would suspect a thing Till that little bell began to ring in my head, in my head But I tried to run, though I knew it wouldn't help me none Cause I couldn't ever love no one, or so I said But my feelings for you were just something I never knew Till I saw the light in your eyes (solo:) Bm9 E13 C#m7b5 F#7 Bm9 E13 Amaj7 Cm7 But I love you best it's not something that I say in jest Cause you're different, girl, from all the rest in my eyes And I ran out before but I won't do it any more Can't you see the light in my eyes E/A Em/A (vamp to fade) ------------------- (intro/outro:) E/A Em/A xo__oo xo_ooo |||1|| |||||| ||2||| ||2||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| (verse:) Bm9 E13 Amaj7 C#m7 C9 A7 x_o___ o_o___ xo___o x____x x____x xo_o_o |||||| |||1|| |||1|| |||||| |||||| |||||| |2|34| |2||3| ||2|3| ||1||| ||1||| ||2|4| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |2|34| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |2|3|| |||||| |||||| ||||4| A/D C#m7 F#m7 B7 Bm9 E13 x_o__o x____x ______ x_____ x_o___ o_o___ |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||1|| |||23| ||1||| 111111 |11111 |2|34| |2||3| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |2|3|| |3|||| ||3|4| |||||| |||||| ||||4| (Solo variation:) Bm9 E13 C#m7b5 F#7 Bm9 E13 x_o___ o_o___ ______ ______ x_o___ o_o___ |||||| |||1|| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||1|| |2|34| |2||3| ||111| 111111 |2|34| |2||3| etc. |||||| |||||| 2||||| |||2|| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||4|| |3|||| |||||| |||||| -------- Jesse's solo: E--|- - - - - - - - |- - - - - 9 - 4 |- - - - - - - - |- - - - - - - - | B--|- - - - - 7 9 10|- - - - - - - - |- - - - - 5 7 8 |- 7 8 7 8 10- 7 | G--|- - - - - - - - |- - - - - 11- 6 |- - - - - - - - |- - - - - - - - | D--|- - - - - 9 1112|- - - - - - - - |- - - - - 7 9 10|- 9 109 1012- 9 | A--|- - - - - - - - |- - - - - - - - |- - - - - - - - |- - - - - - - - | E--|- - - - - - - - |- - - - - - - - |- - - - - - - - |- - - - - - - - | [*] E--|--------|-------0|--------|-------5|--59----|- B--|-----987|-5301-1-|-543----|---5--55|-55-----|- G--|-----987|-642-4--|-654--46|--66-66-|-6-9----|- D--|--------|--------|2----667|-77--7--|--------|- A--|--------|--------|-----5--|-7------|--------|- E--|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|- [* trill, i.e. ornament this note by hammering on and pulling off the A note quickly) ------------------------------------------------------------------ About my tab style: This message should be displayed in a mono-spaced font, or the chord diagrams and tablatures will look unaligned. The letter to the left of the slash in chord names like "A/D" refers to a triad, and the letter to the right refers to the bass note only. The number directly to the left of the chord diagram is the position on the guitar neck (or closest higher fret). "x" along the top means mute or deaden that string, "o" means let it ring open. A solid line along the top of the diagram represents the guitar nut. Each horizontal dashes in the tablature diagram corresponds to an 8th note. The song remains in 4/4 time throughout. If you see any mistakes, or have any corrections or alternate ways of playing any of my tabs, I'd love to hear from you.
