[ Предположительная тональность: C ] Authors for Jesus Christ Superstar was Andrew Lloyd Webber (music) and Tim Rice (lyrics). I have saved some files with chords for this rock opera that were posted on the Net earlier; here is a repost. Hopefully the original poster's name is still in there somewhere! The complete lyrics to Jesus Christ Superstar is found on the original 1970 album, with Murray Head as Judas and Ian Gillan (Deep Purple) as Jesus. I think the CD reissue has the lyrics as well, but I am not sure. (The original version lacks one song that was added in the movie, called "Then We are Decided" or something similiar.) -- Trond J.

Ah, limitations, limitations. The chord is actually very easy to play if you use some untraditional fingering/positioning across the progression of that line of the verse.

A true perfect blend of Lloyd-Webber and Rice at their finest! This is a difficult tune to put into ASCII, mainly because the bulk of the piece is arranged orchestral, and even on piano it's hard to capture the magic of this work... here goes nothing... ad lib where deemed appropriate) [in 4/4, Bb] [verse] Bbm Bbm/Ab Bbm/F# Bbm/F I only want to say Ebm Ebm/C# Ebm/C Ebm/Bb If there is a way Ab Absus Ab Dbsus C# Take this cup a - way from me F F+ F Bbmsus Bbm F# For I don't want to taste its poison -- feel it burn me Bbm/F C7 F F+ F7 F I have changed, I'm not as sure as when we started Bbm Bbm/Ab Bbm/F# Bbm/F Then I was inspired Ebm Ebm/C# Ebm/C Ebm/Bb Now I'm sad and tired Ab Absus Ab Dbsus C# F F+ F Listen, sure - ly I've exceeded expectations Bbmsus Bbm F# Tried for three years -- seems like thirty Bbm/F F Bbm Could you ask as much from any other man?
