Chords with lyrics
i am a big fan of joan wasser, and although i do not love this ep quite
as much as her other albums (of which, i am sure, the deep field is chief),
this song in particular got a hold on me very quickly. not so swiftly
forthcoming was this transcription, i'm afraid (it staggers around a little
in terms of key), but i think i've got it all down and all right. enjoy the
music!

D MajorD BB
I do
A augmentedA
Want every night
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
To feel like the eagle in flight
BB A augmentedA G+G
I do
D MajorD BB A augmentedA
And if you feel like you might
G+G A augmentedA
Want to share this with me
D MajorD BB
Well, I beckon you
A augmentedA G+G
To me
F#F# E7E7 D7D7
This is an attempt to recover
BB A augmentedA EMaj7Emaj7
The stone in the gold
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
And the ice, ever-crystalline
BB
And the oh
C#C# F#7F#7
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
E7E7 C# minorC#m BB
That acts like it s lost its place
A augmentedA F#F# G+G G#G# A augmentedA
In this warring world
*Listen to me!*
F# minorF#m E MajorE A augmentedA
Stagger into the light
F# minorF#m E MajorE A augmentedA
Stagger into the light
D MajorD BB
The earth is child
A augmentedA G+G A augmentedA
Treat her tonight as if she were infant
D MajorD BB A augmentedA
And you re her first springtime
D MajorD BB
Remember the human peace
A augmentedA G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
Rips like tissue when trying to get the gift
BB A augmentedA
This gift
F#F# E7E7 D7D7
This is an attempt to recover
BB A augmentedA EMaj7Emaj7
The song in the reed
BB A augmentedA E MajorE
How it bends to become you
BB
And the oh
C#C# F#7F#7
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
E7E7 C# minorC#m BB
That acts like it s lost its place
A augmentedA F#F# G+G G#G# A augmentedA
In this warring world
*Listen to me!*
F# minorF#m E MajorE A augmentedA
Stagger into the light
F# minorF#m E MajorE A augmentedA
Stagger into the light
Cause I do
Feel like tonight could be every night
For forever
And I know you feel the same way
I do, I do
Send you eyes my way
We ll recover the warmth of the dirt
And the shine in the salty air
And the oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
That acts like it s lost its place
In this warring world
*gasp, sensually
Stagger into the light
