Pink Floyd's 'Crying Song' from the album "More" uses the same chord and the tab for the song calls the chord 'D(-5)' so that's what I called it.) Intro: D(-5) / / / / / / / Em / / / / / / / Verse 1: D Summer princess, midnight maiden F When I first saw you I just breathed C Into your smile my past went fadin' D Inside your voice, my mind was sheathed F In lost lagoon, we waited, wadin' Em Along the streets we went paradin' D Never looking back to where we'd been (repeat intro) Verse 2: Autumn temptress, sundown angel Inside your blood you aren't so young I came to you a loving vandal And heard your heart and touched your tongue Day became a lighted candle Sky fell down beneath your sandal In your eye I began to spin (repeat intro) Verse 3: Winter harlot, moontime lover I can't speak when I feel this way Don't keep your feelings undercover Tell me what you want today Don't leave me in the air to hover Sing it out don't make me suffer Don't be ashamed love is no sin (repeat intro) Verse 4: Springtime woman, sunrise girl I am hiding behind the sea Trick or treat, the Hallowe'en world Hide and seek but you can't catch me I won't chase you until you hurl Your wing to me, and make me twirl You're alive underneath my skin (repeat intro, end cold on first Em) submitted by Hirsch Freeman mail comments or corrections to drumbo@geocities.com
