I hadn't saved the file, but luckily an (ahem) extremely organized friend (hi, Chet!) *did* save it, and sent it to me.. so I'm reposting it now. As with all my posts, it probably could be formatted better, etc, etc, and, no, I give no real idea of timing. But I figure if you're gonna play this one, you've at least *heard* it once.. it's not *that* difficult. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Don't You Need Em7 C(9) I had a dream late last night Em7 C(9) The water was running low Em7 and my fields were on fire C(9) burning my sky. Em7 C(9) My body was moving slow B7 and when I awoke I tasted the sweat A7 Em7 of desire on my mouth. And I C(9) Em7 realized my heart had abducted my mind C(9) and they were last seen headed south. B7 Now I can't sleep, I'm so wired, A7 and I find myself screaming out Baug Em7 D Don't you need? Don't you want? C(9) Can't you taste it when you're alone? Em7 D Don't you cry? Don't you feel? C(9) Sometimes I wonder if you are real. B7 Don't you bleed? Don't you need? [instrumental 3 full bars, lyrics on 4th] Em7 C(9) Em7 C(9) Em7 There's no quenching of thirst C(9) Em7 C(9) there's no relief for the hungry at heart Em7 C(9) And as far as you're concerned I'm just a thief Em7 C(9) entertaining in the dark. B7 But it's you that holds the cards A7 Now that the joker is wild. Baug Em7 D Don't you need? Don't you want C(9) Can't you taste it when you're alone? Em7 D Don't you cry? Don't you feel? C(9) Sometimes I wonder if you are real. B7 A7 C(9) Don't you bleed? Don't you need? D Don't you want to lay it down C(9) and feel your skin against the ground? D C(9) Don't you want to ride the storm and then sleep inside the calm? D Don't you want to get that high? C/E D/F# Don't you wanna be satisfied? Cmaj7 Well, if you don't get that from me-- B7 Em7 Don't you need? [instrumental 3 full bars] Cmaj7 Em7 Cmaj7 Em7 C(9) I had a dream late last night Em7 C(9) The water was running low Em7 and my fields were on fire, C(9) Em7 C(9) burning my sky. How was I to know B7 that I burn every night in my dreams A7 and only morning can set me free....
