Write Me A Letter
(Tyler)
4:10
Write me a letter, write me a letter, write it today, I'm goin' away
Write me a letter, write me a letter, write it today, I'm goin' away
Well I've been away forever
Suicide's crossin' my mind
But I'll never never never never never get so far behind
I said, the ways of the night are evil with eyes that love the day
but I'll never never never never never get so far away
I said write me, ohhhh, write me, ohhh, write me
I said write me, ohhhh, write me, ohhh, write me
Well there's nothin' I can see that'd ever make
Me want to be without her she's good, she's good to me
Said there's no way to explain the kind of feeling
That you get out in the rain she's good, she's good to me
See this emptiness inside it make me scream
It make me crawl out of my high, she's good, she's good to me
I love her
Write me a letter, write me a letter, write it today, I'm goin' away
Well I've been away forever, suicide's crossin' my mind
But I'll never never never never never get so far behind
Well I've been so many places hidin' from the wind and the rain
But you could write me a letter for to save me from a goin' insane
I said write me, write, write, write me
Write me, write, write, write me
Write me, write, write, write
I said write me, write, write, write me
Write me, write, write, write me
Don't write me baby
Scrivimi una lettera
Scrivimi una lettera, scrivimi una lettera
Scrivila oggi
Me ne sto andando
Scrivimi una lettera, scrivimi una lettera
Scrivila oggi
Me ne sto andando
Sempre lontano, il suicidio in testa
Ma mai, mai, mai, mai, mai mi ero spinto così in là
I movimenti della notte sono malvagi, per chi ama la luce del giorno
Ma mai, mai, mai, mai, mai mi ero spinto così lontano
Ho detto scrivimi, scrivimi, scrivimi
Ho detto scrivimi, scrivimi, scrivimi
Nulla al mondo mi farebbe desiderare di rimanere senza lei
Lei mi fa bene, lei mi fa bene
Non c'è modo di spiegare ciò che si sente sotto la pioggia
Lei mi fa bene, lei mi fa bene
Vedi, il vuoto dentro mi fa urlare, mi trascina fuori di senno
Lei mi fa bene, lei mi fa bene
La amo
Scrivimi una lettera, scrivimi una lettera
Scrivila oggi
Me ne sto andando
Sempre lontano, il suicidio in testa
Ma mai, mai, mai, mai, mai mi ero spinto così in là
Ho visto tanti posti, nascondendomi dalla pioggia e dal vento
E il fatto che tu mi scriva non mi salverà dalla pazzia
Ho detto scrivimi, scrivimi, scrivimi
Ho detto scrivimi, scrivimi, scrivimi

Write Me(or 'Write Me A Letter')
from the album AEROSMITH
REVISED(11/22/96): intro riff slightly changed
I don't have all of this but I do have most of it. Correct it if you can.
intro riff-
guitar 1(distortion)
E------------------------------------|
B------------------------------------|
G------------------------------------|
D--5--3----------3--3-----2--2-------|
A--------5-5-------------------------|
E-------------3--------3---------3---| repeat
I find it easiest to use my thumb when playing the lower notes.
(pay more attention to the rhythm and the feel than to the numbers)
E------------------------------------------------3-|
B------------------------------------------------3-|
G------------------------------------------------4-|
D-5-7--5-7---5-7--5-7---7-9--7-9--3-3-x-4-4-x-5--5-|
A-3-3--3-3---3-3--3-3---5-5--5-5--3-3-x-4-4-x-5----|
E---------------------------------1-1-x-2-2-x-3----|
guitar 2(right before verse)
E---------------------|
B----------3--0-------|
G---0--3b--------3----|
D---------------------|
A---------------------|
E---------------------|
verse/main riff-
E-----------------------------------------------|
B-----------------------------------------------|
G-----------------------------------------------|
D-------------------------5-5-7-5-7--5-5-7-5-7--|
A---5-5-7-5-7--5-5-7-5-7--3-3-3-3-3--3-3-3-3-3--|
E---3-3-3-3-3--3-3-3-3-3------------------------|
E------------------------|
B------------------------|
G------------------------|
D--7-7-9-7-9--3---4---5--|
A--5-5-5-5-5--3---4---5--|
E-------------1---2---3--| continue similar pattern
Then there are a bunch of chords that I don't feel like figuring out right now
and this lick right before the harmonica solo:
E---3------------------------------|
B---3------------------------------|
G---4---------------------------3--|
D---5---------------------3--5-----|
A---5------------3--4--5-----------|
E---3------3--6--------------------|
After the harmonica solo the rhythm guitar goes into this riff:
E----------------------------------------------------|
B----------------------------------------------------|
G-------------------------------5-0-7-5----7-5-------|
D---5---7-7-----5---7-7----5----5-0-7-5--0-7-5-0-5-7-|
A-0-5-0-7-7---0-5-0-7-7--0-5-0--3-0-5-3--0-5-3-0-5-7-|
E-0-3-0-5-5---0-3-0-5-5--0-3-0-------------------3-5-|
During this part, the other guitar plays something like this:
E------------------------------------|
B------------------------------------|
G------------------------------------|
D--------7-------------7-------------|
A------------------------------------|
E------------------------------------|
Follow the tab here loosely.Just play it in rhythm and it should sound alright:
(Palm mute)
bend it when it sounds appropriate
E-----------------------------------------|
B-----------------------------------------|
G---5-7-7b-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7r-5-|
D-7---------------------------------------|
A-----------------------------------------|
E-----------------------------------------|
E----------------------------|
B----------------------------|
G-5-7-5--5-7-5-5-7-5-5-------|
D----------------------5-7---|
A----------------------------|
E----------------------------|
That's all I have right now but it should get you through most of the song. As always, send all comments,questions,additions and corrections to meunier.1@osu.edu Have fun with it.
Symbols used:
