I am a long-time fan of Mr. Gabriel and am knowledgable about all of his solo work since leaving Genesis.
I run a website about David Rhodes (with his cooperation), who has played guitar with Peter Gabriel for 25 years and am very knowledgable about most areas of his career.
Peter Gabriel has made wonderful music for 30 years!
Peter Gabriel has built his own recording compound, called Real World, in the countryside of Wiltshire, England.
Peter Gabriel has been active in Human Rights since the early 1980s, doing tours to benefit Amnesty International and starting Witness (www.witness.org), which concentrates on putting cameras and other recording devices into people's hands so they can record human rights abuses in the hopes of making the world aware.

Hi Dimitris - Because PG doesn't publish his music, there are a lot of songs that have never been transcribed. Regarding guitar chords specifically, David Rhodes, PG's guitarist, uses many alternative
As you probably know, PG's songs can be interpreted in many ways. He has introduced "Shock the Monkey" as a song about jealousy and "Signal to Noise" as a song about activism. There are a bunch of lyric
Hi James - I've never heard or seen anything that indicates PG is religious. However, it's fairly well-known that he's very spiritual and seems to explore a lot of concepts involved with that aspect
Hi Chris - I think the definitive performance of In Your Eyes was on a concert video called "P.O.V." that dates from the mid-80s. The tape (no DVD) has been out of print for years, but PG's recording
Hi Sus - The lyrics you're referring to were originally sung by Youssou N'Dour in Wolof, his native language (he's from Senegal). The transliteration of the lyric is: Sa bet chi lamp, chi tangaay
