Awesome song by Great Big Sea's Alan Doyle. Here is another way to play it, I hope you enjoy. Would love to hear some comments on what you think it is about ... I can't quite place it, but I have a few ideas. -------------------- Standard Tuning Capo 5th Fret The chords are played as follows (relative to Capo): G: 320011 Csus2: x30033 Am: x02210 D: xx0323 Em7:022033 [Intro] G, Csus2 (x2) [Verse 1] G Csus2 Let it be dark in this caravan G Am D Rocket lightning striking metal in the sand G Csus2 I'm miles from common sense, as welcome as the rain G Am D So close to madness that I even know its name [Chorus] Csus2 G Lay your lover's hands upon me D Em7 Let me understand you know Csus2 G Lay your lover's hands upon me D Let me go Csus2 G Lie to me sweetly D Em7 Then discreetly leave me alone Csus2 G Lay your lover's hands upon me D Let me go Aw, let me go [Instrumental] G, Csus2 [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/a/alan-doyle/341082.html ] [Verse 2] Let there be thunder, let me feel the trembling pain Taste me now I'm desert clean, I might never be again Long past the Thinker’s point, I'm open and I'm free I gave up the anchor when I gave up the sea [Chorus] Lay your lover's hands upon me Let me understand you know Lay your lover's hands upon me Let me go Lie to me sweetly Then discreetly leave me alone Lay your lover's hands upon me Let me go Aw, let me go [Instrumental] G, Csus2 (x2) [Bridge] Em7 And the storm hits D My finger tips G Csus2 And I'm blown to bits through the pyramids G D Em7 I buried that man the moment I could dig Csus2 And the flag snaps back D Em7 And I'm scattered to the wind G And the door pretends D G Csus2 I never let you in [Instrumental] G, Csus2 [Verse 3] Let it be dark in this endless caravan Rocked by lightning, striking metal in the sand I'm miles from common sense, as welcome as the rain So close to madness, that I even know her name [Chorus] Lay your lover's hands upon me Let me understand you know Lay your lover's hands upon me Let me go Lie to me sweetly Then discreetly leave me alone Lay your lover's hands upon me Let me go Aw, let me go [Outro] G, Csus2 (x2) |
