Chords

Song: Sad Lisa Artist: Cat Stevens Composer: Cat Stevens Album: Tea for the Tillerman Tabbed by: DJ 12th Mar 2014 I've tabbed the instrumental verse chords against bar beats, notice that there are a couple of bars of Am in 2/4 time, in amongst all the 4/4 bars. All the verses follow this same rhythm pattern. (Will then sound in the recorded key of Em) IGNORE THE CHORD BOX DIAGRAMS that the website displays, they are generated automatically from a generic database and often don't show the best options for a particular chord progression. Just use the voicings suggested in the text column numbers Chord names & fret positions are relative to the capo Am = x02210 F = xx3211 D7 = xx0212 G6 = 320000 C = x32010 Gsus2 = xx0203 G = 320003 D = xx0232 D/A = xxx232 D/F# = xx4232 Please take a second to scroll down to the bottom of the page and select a star rating for my tab, thanks ===================================================== [Intro -see bottom of page for tablature]

[Verse 1]
    Am                              G     F
She hangs her head, and cries in my shirt------,

    G       Am        G     C
She must be hurt very bad - ly,

       G          Am     D
Tell me what's making you sadly-----?

Am        D7          Gsus2       F
Open your door, don't hide in the dark,

       G           Am            G     C
You're lost in the dark, you can trust me,

           C    G             Am       D   
'Cause you know that's how it must be-----!

    Am
Her eyes, like windows,

          G    F     G       Am            G      C
Trickling rain--- u- pon her pain, getting deep - er,

               G             Am         D
Though my love wants to re - lieve her-----,

    Am        D7        Gsus2   F
She walks a - lone from wall to wall,

G         Am               G    C
Lost in a hall,  she can't hear me,

         C        G           Am       D
Though I know she likes to be near me----,

[Verse 4]
    Am                       G     F
She sits in a corner, by the door------,

      G       Am         G    C
There must be more I can tell her,

              G           Am        D
If she really wants me to help her------,

     Am        D7     Gsus2        F
I'll do what I can to show her the way,

     G          Am         G    C
And, maybe, one day I will free her,

         C       G       Am  D
Though I know no one can see her
