THE BEACON LIGHT - words and music by Ween
*from the X-Files Soundtrack

This song was originally posted by Guava on the Ween newsgroup. I've changed
it around a bit, and included his transcription at the bottom.

The Beacon Light

Intro - A

A F# D B
Looking up to the sky, made me realize. Made me want to fly,
A F# D B
To a place far away, where they're singing songs and making love all day.
A F# D B
Somewhere beyond the sun where an atom splits and an ounce weighs a ton.

D A G E
Well don't you be late. I see the Beacon Light and it's on.
A G E
So Strap on that Jammy Pac.
D A
Fill it up, cause I'm gone.

A F# D B
The people all dance with their big long arms, and a peach in their pants.
A F# D B
Picking fruit from the sky as the demon ships go passing them by.
A F# D B
I'm not sure if it's love, but it's coming down from the heavens above.

D A G E
Well don't you be late. I see the Beacon Light and it's on.
A G E
So Strap on that Jammy Pac.
D A
Fill it up, cause I'm gone.

D A G E
Well don't you be late. I see the Beacon Light and it's on.

Version 3

yo dude-- heres a little addendum to Beacon Light, tabbed from aaron's
acoustic version at J&P's, the date escapes me.

theres a walkdown from the A to the F#, just slide your fingers back a fret
3 times while keeping the chord formation, strumming once on each, so it
looks like this:

A G# - G - F# D B
Looking up to the sky, made me realize. Made me want to fly,

or in terms of finger placement:

A: 577655
G#: 466544
G: 355433
F#: 244322

he also does this for the second line of the choruses
