CHORDS



When I play this, it sounds pretty good when you embellish slightly on the
C, Am, and G chords (for instance I'll just hammer-on the D string for the
C & Am, and on the A for the G chord. Listen to the record and you'll hear
what I mean).

INTRO:

 C Am Dm G

VERSE:
   C
In truck stops, and hamburger joints,
Am
   In Cadillac limosuines, in the company of
Dm
Has-beens and bent-backs
G
  And sleeping forms on pavement steps,
   C
In libraries and railway stations,
Am
   In books and banks,
Dm
   In the pages of history
    G                                   C Am
And suicidal cavalry attacks I recognize
F           G                C
  Myself in every stranger's eyes.

       C
And in wheelchairs by monuments,
Am
   Under tube trains, commuter accidents,
Dm
   In council care and county courts,
G
  At Easter fairs and sea-side resorts,
C
  In drawing rooms and city morgues,
                 Am
In award-winning photographs of life-rafts on the China Seas,
   Dm
In transit camps, under arc lamps, on unloading ramps,
G                                               C Am
  And faces blurred by rubber stamps I recognize
F           G                C
  Myself in every stranger's eyes.

    C                 Am               Dm                            G
And now, from where I stand, upon this hill I've plundered from the pool
        C                   Am     Dm                      G
I look around, I search the sky, I shade my eyes so nearly blind
              C                C/G      Am                      F
And I've seen sights of half-remembered days, I hear bells that chime in
strange,
                     G
        familiar ways
           C Am F             G              C    F G Em Am Dm G
I recognize      the hope you kindle in your eyes

C                             F               G
  It's oh, so easy now, as we lie here in the dark
        Em                              Am                  Dm

Nothing interferes, it's obvious how to beat the tears that threaten to
snuff out the
        G            C     CCC
        smoke of our love.
