Love Song To A Stranger by Joan Baez Not entirely sure about the tab for this one. Suggestions/corrections are reall welcome. you don't like the Bb chord (I don't) it can be played in G with a capo on the 5th fret. Intro: -------0-3---0-------0-3---0-------1-3---1-------1-3-----------0-3---0--| -----1-----1-------1-----1-------3-----3-------3-----3-------1-----1----| ----0-0-0-0-0-0---0-0-0-0-0-0---2-2-2-2-2-2---2-2-2-2-2-2---0-0-0-0-0-0-| ------------------------------------------------------------------------| -0h3-----------0h2---------------------------------------0h3------------| -----------------------------3p1------------3p1-------------------------| This is also the basic verse pattern. So, the chords then. [C]How long since I've spent a [Cmaj7]whole night in a twin bed with a [F]stranger His warm arms all [C]around me? [C]How long since I've gazed into [Cmaj7]dark eyes that melted my [F]soul down To a place where it [C]longs to be? [Em]All of your history has little to do with your [F]face You're [Bb]mainly a mystery with violins filling in [F]space[C] There is a little bass run after each verse, moving from [C]-[G] in something like then back for the start of the next verse. Some verses open with a little bass run as well, a-b-c. Finally, a much more important one goes with the last move from [F] to [C] by humming or singing. It's f-a-bb-c. Rest of the verses (the last has only the first twice): You stood in the nude by the mirror and picked out a rose From the bouquet in our hotel And lay down beside me again and I watched the rose On the pillow where it fell I sank and I slept in a twilight with only one care To know that when day broke and I woke that you'd still be there The hours for once they passed slowly, unendingly by Like a sweet breeze on a field Your gentleness came down upon me and I guess I thanked you When you caused me to yield We spoke not a sentence and took not a footstep beyond Our two days together which seemingly soon would be gone Don't tell me of love everlasting and other sad dreams I don't want to hear Just tell me of passionate strangers who rescue each other From a lifetime of cares Because if love means forever, expecting nothing returned Then I hope I'll be given another whole lifetime to learn Because you gave to me oh so many things it makes me wonder How they could belong to me And I gave you only my dark eyes that melted your soul down To a place where it longs to be www.TAB6.com
