Tom: E ALWAYS NEAR YOU/NOWHED TO HIDE (from the KISS CD "GENE BMM ONS") E|--------------------| Standard tuning Comments: I like these chords, specially when the "harmony" part comes in by the second verse. There is also some very good solo guitar work here (although the last G natural against the E major chord in Riff 3 is a little annoying even with the gradual bend to the A). The high A's that fade in (both bent and straight) give a slightly eerie feel to the track. And you got to love Gene's castrato vocals during the jamming outro.
