'Crucify My Love' by X Japan - Guitar Tutorial

            Title	: Crucify My Love
Artist	: X-Japan
Album	: Dahlia (Track 6)

Please note that I'm actually a piano player mostly,
and that these chords are taken directly from the Dahlia songbook.


Intro:
(Gb)///////(Ab)/(Bbm)////(Ebm)///(Ebm6)/////
(each / is representatitve of one beat n the piece is in 4/4)

Chords fade out until the first word is sung,
then they come in like this:


             Gb              	Ab7
        Crucify my love
               Bbm
        If my love is blind
             Gb             	Ab7
        Crucify my love
               Bbm
        If it sets me free
               Gb          Ab7
        Never know Never trust
               Db       Ab/C    Bb
        That love should see a color
         Ab7 Gb             	Ab7
        Crucify my love
                    Bbm
        If it should be that way

Second verse is the same:

        Swing the heartache
        Feel it inside out
        When the wind cries
        I'll say goodbye
        Tried to learn Tried to find
        To reach out for eternity
        Where's the answers
        Is this forever?

Quick piano solo here:
	(Gb)//(Ab7)//(Bbm)////(Gb)//(Ab)//(F/A)


bridge:

                        Bbm7           		Eb/G
        Like a river flowing to the sea
                         Ab
        You'll be miles away
          Ab/Gb    F/A
        And I will know
                     Bbm		Bbm/Ab	Gb7
        I know I can deal with the pain
	   Eb7/Gb    Ab				F7
        No reason to cry

(same as the first verse)

        Crucify my love
        If my love is blind
        Crucify my love
        If it sets me free
        Never know Never trust
        That love should see a color
        Crucify my love
        If it should be that way

Big solo here...

	(Bb)////(Gb)//(Ab)//(Bbm)////(Gb)//(Eb/G)//
	(Ab)////(F/A)////(Gb)////(F)////
        (Gb)////(Bbm)////(F7)//(Bbm)//(Db)//(C7)//

Play the bridge with these words:

        Till the loneliness shadows the sky
        I'll be sailing down
        And I will know
        I know I can clear clouds away
        Oh is it a crime to love

Then this:

        Swing the heartache
        Feel it inside out
        When the wind cries
        I'll say goodbye
        Tried to learn Tried to find
        To reach out for eternity
        Where 's the answer
        Is this forever

Straight into:

        If my love is blind
        Crucify my love
        If it sets me free
        Never know Never trust
        That love should see a color
        Crucify my love
        If it should be that way.

the ending is just the Bm7 let ring on til the piano fades out.
