Chase The Blues Away by Tim Buckley

Chords with lyrics

There's a much easier, yet not quite accurate, way to play the song with a capo
on a first fret and less chords. The sequence would be
Chord diagramE minorEm -> Chord diagramA augmentedA -> Chord diagramC majorC -> Chord diagramE minorEm for the verse and Chord diagramG+G -> Chord diagramBB -> Chord diagramC majorC for the chorus.

Many thanks to Dann Butterfield
from [The Tim Buckley Archives|http://timbuckley.net/]
for the original guitar transcribtion.

We'll dance along the river's edge
Chord diagramAb7Ab7       Chord diagramBb majorBb        Chord diagramDb7Db7

The midnight cries

Chord diagramF minorFm       Chord diagramG minorGm
Just like a child you'll cling to me
Chord diagramAb7Ab7        Chord diagramBb majorBb       Chord diagramDb7Db7
From every sound along that rushes near, I whisper
      Chord diagramFsus2Fsus2
It's just the breeze
Chord diagramF minorFm          Chord diagramG minorGm
That licks your skin and rubs your breast

Your woman fear

With the morning sun we'll wake

And lift our eyes and watch the eagle fly
       Chord diagramFsus2Fsus2
Up mountain high
Chord diagramF minorFm       Chord diagramG minorGm
And on his wings our love will climb
Chord diagramAb7Ab7        Chord diagramBb majorBb       Chord diagramDb7Db7
And never fail until he soars and dives
       Chord diagramFsus2Fsus2
Oh, he'll take your breath away

[Chorus]

Well, he just came to chase the blues away

For awhile
