The Storyman Theme 4:00 Tabbed by: NBA96 Here are the number of counts/beats for every chord to make it easier for you. This will help you a lot if you want to play this song on piano. When it says (Em-2) it means the Em is played for 2 counts/beats. I've tried this way of writing chords for instrumental music before and it seems to work out well.

The Mirror of the Soul 9:15 Tabbed by: NBA96 Intro: Bm G Bm G Bm F# Bm F# Bm F# Bm Bm F#m Bm Brother, there's a man at the gate, he has something in his hand, G He says it fell down from the sky, should I let him in? Bm Maybe it's an omen, maybe it will take away our sin, our sin..... Bm F#m Bm 'Tis a diamond that he has, the biggest one I've ever seen, G And when he holds it in his hand, it's shining like the sun, A He says it's from another world, he calls it the mirror of the soul, D Bm G A D Bm G A We must place it on the altar high, send the Devil to the fire, E D A G G A Bm Power over men we'll have when they see it shine, when they see it shine, Bm F#m Bm Brother, fetch the Abbot now, tell him of this wondrous thing, G Tell him that we'll have control of all the riches it will bring, Bm When people come to see it, for money we will purify their souls, their souls, Bm F#m Bm With my knife I'll kill this man, I'll send him to the Promised Land, G A And when we take the diamond, we will have the future in our hands, in our hands, D Bm G A D Bm G A When we place it on the altar high, send the Devil to the fire, Em D A G G A D Bm G A D Bm G A D Power over men we'll have when they see it shine, when they see it shine! Bm Bm D A G That's how it started, that whole new religion, and people everywhere, G D Em F# Had to give up all their possessions at the Abb St. Pierre, Bm D A E But with their gold they could buy a redemption, and the promise of eternal life, G D A And the centre of it all was a diamond divine, D Bm G A D Bm G A It was up there on the altar high but for the monks it would not shine, Em D A G A Bm So with subterfuge they used the light of the sun, fooling everyone, Bm D A G It was late at night when a young boy was in there with his friends, G D Em F# And they dared him up to the altar, to touch the famous gem, Bm D A E And when he did, the whole place exploded with a great and wonderful light, G D A And the people came from everywhere to see, D G A D G A When he took it from the altar high, everyone could make it shine, Em D A G Except the Abbot and his men, for them, no light, A D Bm G A D Bm G A Em D A G A D They could not make it shine. Dm Bb C F C F Bb Dm Gm And in the end, many heard the brothers, making confession of the, Bb C Things they had done, F C F Bb F And the Abbot led that sad procession, as they went through the, C Bb C F Gate past the place where it had begun C Dm Bb C Bb And all their dreams of glory, all their schemes and stories, F Gm C Would come to nothing after all, Dm Bb Am Bb Because a power greater from the world's creator, F C Dm Bb Gave us love to light the mirror of the soul, F C F Only love can light the mirror of the soul, F C F Bb F Gm All through the world, there are many others, who always follow Bb C Everything they are told, F C F Bb F C By men with rules and regulations, using old superstitions and Bb C F Tales to assume control, C Dm Bb C Bb But all their dreams of glory, all their schemes and stories, F Gm C Will come to nothing after all, Dm Bb Am Bb Because a power greater from the world's creator, F C Dm Bb Gave us love to light the mirror of the soul, F C F Dm Bb C Bb Only love can light the mirror of the soul, F Gm C They come to nothing after all, Dm Bb Am Bb Because a power greater from the world's creator, F C Dm Bb Gave us love to light the mirror of the soul, F C F Only love can light the mirror of the soul. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________________ 10.
