NOTES:
-- Listening to this song, the guitar work sounds very complex. I
was pleasantly surprised to find out that the verses are constructed
on two chords. However, Neil is adding a lot of other little licks
and "side chords" in between to make things interesting. (for exam-
ple, one of his faves is an Em form like this: X7978[10].) I would
suggest you do your own goofing around and figure out what works.
-- The bridge ("Frost on the window pane...") is particularly tricky
in this song, but once you get the fingerings down, it flows beauti-
fully.

NOTES:
-- to play this the way it was originally played, all chords on the
verses are bar chords: Em on the 7th fret, A on the 5th fret, and
C on the 8th fret.
-- in the tab of the Richard Thompson solo, the notation "11^" means to
play the 11th fret but bend the note up (not necessarily all the way up
to the tone of the 12th fret--just a quick, ornamental bend. you know,
Thompson is famous for this kind of thing.)

DO9 X32033
NOTES:
-- Listening to this song, the
..guitar work sounds very complex.
.. I
was pleasantly surprised to find
..out that the verses are
..constructed
on two chords. However, Neil is
..adding a lot of other little
..licks
and "side chords" in between to
..make things interesting. (for
..exam-
ple, one of his faves is an Em
..form like this: X7978[10].) I
..would
suggest you do your own goofing
..around and figure out what
..works.
-- The bridge ("Frost on the
..window pane...") is particularly
..tricky
in this song, but once you get the
..fingerings down, it flows
..beauti-
fully.

You take away my air
You make my lungs collapse
I die tonight
I die tonight
Feeling devastated
MImThat's what I call
DO7 SI7Livin' in your memory
That's what I call
DO7 SI7Tired and deflated
MImThat's what I call
Love
I tidy up your room
You tidy up my life
Show me the door
I'm abandoned here
I'm warm to the core
I can feel
You sink I swim
We never got in that deep
You bend I break
I die tonight
Feeling devastated
That's what I call
Hangin' on and fallin' over
That's what I call
Tired and deflated
That's what I call
Love

The train already left the station
We are neither at home nor at work
We are moving
Listen to the howling of steel
A face betraying no emotion
Like you never had a chance to be
Wild and free
