Heliopolis By Night


http://www.myspace.com/aberfeldytheband Simple, lovely, silly, fun. That's how I'd describe this song. Hit a Bm7 instead of Bm sometimes, in fact I do it most of the time. Standard tuning. Chords: A: x02220; Bm: x24432; G: 320003; D: xx0343;; Dsus2: xx0340 INTRO A - Bm - G - D (Dsus2) VERSE 1 A Bm One thing I was sleeping, G D (Dsus2) D Then I was taken high, A Bm Through the veil of darkness G D (Dsus2) D That had stretched across the sky. A Bm Though I could see nothing, G D (Dsus2) D I heard a voice say this.....

A Bm Bathed in gold and shimmering light, G D(Dsus2)D Heliopolis ... by night. --> Straight into VERSE 2, same chords as verse 1: They sent me for the first time To the place they call their home. Words could not describe to you The things that i was shown. And though i was so far away, Not one thing did i miss, Safe among my friends in golden Heliopolis rpt CHORUS VERSE 3: And the reason why they took me is Something i never learned. My body lay there sleeping when I Finally returned. And the lover who I left behind Awoke me with a kiss, And asked where i had been I answered "Heliopolis." End on G, but only the lower notes.
