VERSES:
On a distant shore, miles from land
Stands the ebony totem in ebony sand,
dream in a mist of grey
On a far distant shore.
The pebble, it stood alone
And driftwood lies half buried
Warm, shallow water sweeps shells
So the cockles shine.
bare, winding carcas stalk
Shimmers as flies scoop up meat.
An empty way,
Dry Tears.
Crisp flax squeaks. Tall reeds
Make a circle of grey
In a summer way, around man
so don't drown
BRIDGE:
(This is the long section of strummed chords. I'll count measures
in 6/8 in the following way:
------ ------ ------
means a measure of one of and one of )
Begin bridge:
------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------
------ ------
------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------
------ ------
(still )
This is then repeated, except that the second time I think that
the first chord is instead of .
CLOSING:
I don't know what to call these things, but they're based on
the chord x02200 which I think is .
The chords and my (incorrect) names for them are:
: x02220
: x02200
[A5addF#]: x02202
[A5addG#]: x02204
Begin closing:
[A5addG#]
I'm trying
[A5addG#]
I'm trying
[A5addF#]
To find you
[A5addF#]
To find you
[A5addG#]
I'm living
[A5addG#]
I'm giving
[A5addF#]
To find you
[A5addF#]
To find you
The next part I think uses only the chord:
I'm living
I'm living
I'm trying
I'm giving
(Switch at this point to and diddle with it for a while)
