Verse
|Em |D |C |Em |Em If a fiddler played you a song my love |Em|D |C |C |Em |Em And if I gave you a wheel |C |D |G |Am |Am Would you spin for my heart and loneliness |C |D |C |C |Em |Em Would you spin for my love
Verse
If I gave up all of my pride for you And only loved you for now Would you hide my fears and never say Tomorrow I must go
Chorus
|C |D |Em |Em Everywhere there's rain my love |C |D |Em |Em Everywhere there's fear
Verse
If you tell me a lie I'll cry for you Tell me of sin and I'll laugh If you tell me of all the pain you've had I'll never smile again
Chorus
Verse
I can plainly see that our parts have changed Our sands are shifted around Need I beg to you for one more day To find our lonely love
Chorus-End
Suggestions on how to play: Listen to the acoustic version on the DREAM LETTER album (2-CD). Capo on 2:nd fret to get a somewhat more muted sound. This is a beautiful lovesong with a 4/4 halfbeat folksong feeling A - corresponds to 1/8 beat. Stomp your feet at every ^ to get that Halfbeat feeling.
Verse:(finger picking) Fid-dler played you... ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ Add the base as indicated by the () above when playing line 3 & 4 In the verse
Chorus:(strumming mixed with fingerpicking) For the C- & D_chords strum the guitar while accentuating The base with your thumb at the first stroke of every chord. For the Em see above.
