John Denver – Isabel (Guitar)

G          Gadd4
[tab]     C             G
In a room of many shadows

    Em                 Am
Her eyes like flashing diamonds

        C                 G
Shining brightly from the sea

    G              Gadd4
Her hair in silken tresses

       C               G
Like a robe around her shoulders

       Em             Am
Hiding tantalising treasures

         C             G    G
That the sun has never seen

G          Gadd4
Isabel is watching

       C                 G
Like a princess from the mountains

        Em                  Am
For the first soft snows of winter

        C              G
And the icy winds they bring

       G               Gadd4
With a whisper of her sadness

       C              G
In the passing of the summer

    Em                Am
Her crown is wild red roses

       C              G
With a lace of forest green

        Bb              D                G
And she wraps her arms around me and she sighs

        Bb            D                G
And she sing to me in silence with her eyes

        Em           A               D  C Bm Bb A A
And her hair upon my pillow comforts me

G         Gadd4
Isabel is weeping

        C                G
And her eyes are full of wonder

    Em                  Am
She knows that it's the time for her

        C            G
And she cannot understand

G                       Gadd4
She's a mistress of the moonlight

       C              G
To the stars she is a sister

        Em           Am
And the morning now awaits her

      C             G
To betray her once again

        Bb              D            G
And she whispers as she sadly slips away

         Bb                     D               G
Then she smiles because there's nothing left to say

        Em                 A               D
And she takes with her the sadness and the sun
