Rakim
   Dead Can Dance
   From CD-Movie: Toward The Within(1994)


A very difficult song to transcribe and play it correctly.  This is 90 % O.k. 
and i think i will make it.

First: Tunning :You may say WHAT¡¡¡ four strings?. Yes Four strings, this is 
for mandolin (i think it is played with that) but if you have a guitar just 
put a capo on 5th fret and play on the thinner strings. Notated as fret 
5(capo)=0.For non capo just add 5 to every note.
Second: Trills: Move quikcly, very quickly up and down the pick under notes 
that says Trill.
Third: The chords are arranged for main deep music layer, and here come the
scales: For DM part is a A minor.-a,b,c,d,e,f,g,a. For D part is a 
G major.-g,a,b,c,d,e,f#,g. Now you can figure out arrangements and voicing.

Lyrics:

1. Rakim

Favored son
Turn in the garden
Shades of one
Sins forgotten

Favored signs to find hope
In the rounds of life
Favored rhymes to find hope
In the sands of life

Favored son
Fence in your heart
Saviored son
Sins forgotten
