1...AND IT STONED ME... by Van Morrison
-----------------------................

*from 'Moondance' (1970)


Verse 1:

G                     D
 Half a mile from the county fair,
        C                 G
And the rain came pouring down.
G             D
 Me and Billy standing there,
       C             G
With a silver half a crown.

G              D
 Hands full of fishing gear,
        C             G
And the tackle on our backs.
G                    D
 We just stood there getting wet,
         C                 G
With our backs against the fence.

Bridge 1:

Am       D      Am      D
 Oh, the water, oh, the water.
Am       D
 Oh, the water;
Em                   D
 Let it run all over me.

Chorus 1:

       G      C             G
And it stoned me to my soul,
G                    D
 Stoned me just like Jelly Roll;
       Em     G
And it stoned me.

       G      C             G
And it stoned me to my soul,
G                    D
 Stoned me just like Jelly Roll;
       Em     G
And it stoned me.

Verse 2:

        G
And the rain let up,
        D
And the sun came out,
C                G
 We were getting dry.
G              D
 Almost glad a pickup truck,
C                 G
 Nearly passed us by.

      G
So we jumped right in,
        D
And the driver grinned,
       C                 G
And he dropped us up the road.
   G
We looked at the swim,
       D
And we jumped right in,
       C               G
Not to mention fishing poles.

Bridge 2:

Am       D      Am      D
 Oh, the water, oh, the water.
Am       D
 Oh, the water;
Em                   D
 Let it run all over me.

Chorus 2:

       G      C             G
And it stoned me to my soul,
G                    D
 Stoned me just like Jelly Roll;
       Em     G
And it stoned me.

       G      C             G
And it stoned me to my soul,
G                    D
 Stoned me just like Jelly Roll;
       Em     G
And it stoned me.

Verse 3:

G
 On the way back home,
   D
We sang a song,
        C
But our throats,
             G
Were getting dry.
        G
Then we saw the man,
       D
From a-cross the road,
         C               G
With the sunshine in his eyes.

        G
Well he lived all alone,
       D
In his own little home,
       C                G
With a great big gallon jar.
           G
There were bottles too,
        D
One for me and you,
       C                    G
And he said; "Hey there you are".

Bridge 3:

Am       D      Am      D
 Oh, the water, oh, the water.
Am       D
 Oh, the water;
Em                   D
 Let it run all over me.

Chorus 3:

       G      C             G
And it stoned me to my soul,
G                    D
 Stoned me just like Jelly Roll;
       Em     G
And it stoned me.

       G      C             G
And it stoned me to my soul,
G                    D
 Stoned me just like Jelly Roll;
       Em     G
And it stoned me.

You can't hide.

7...THESE DREAMS OF YOU... by Van Morrison
--------------------------................

*from 'Moondance' (1970)*


Intro:

G

Verse 1:

(n.C)                            C
 I dreamed you paid your dues in Canada,
D                G
 Left me to come through.
                 C
I headed for the right way,
          D                  G
I knew ex-actly just what to do.

G                                 C
 I dreamed we played cards in the dark,
        D             G
And you lost, and you lied.
                    C
Wasn't very hard to do,
    D                     G
But hurt me, deep down in-side.

Chorus 1:

C      D         G
 These dreams of you,
C   D           G
 So real and so true.
C      D         G
 These dreams of you,
C   D        G
 So real, so true.

Verse 2:

(n.C)                       C
 My back was up against the wall,
        D                    G
And you slowly just walked a-way.
                          C
You never really heard my call,
       D              G
When I cried out that way.

G                         C
 With my face against the sun,
            D             G
You pointed out for me to go.
                        C
Then you said I was the one;
       D                 G
Had to reap what you did sow.

Chorus 2:

C      D         G
 These dreams of you,
C   D           G
 So real and so true.
C      D         G
 These dreams of you,
C   D        G
 So real, so true.

Bridge 1:

           Em
And hush-A-bye,
      D            G
Don't ever think a-bout it,
      Em
Go to sleep;
      D            G
Don't ever say one word.

          Em
Close you eyes;
    D      G      Em
You are an angel,
C           D
 Sent down,
       G
From A-bove.

Verse 3:

(n.C)                     G
 And Ray Charles was shot down,
       D                 G
But he got up, to do his best.
                           C
A crowd of people gathered round,
       D                   G
To the question; answered "yes".

G                          C
 And you slapped me on the face,
           D               G
I turned a-round the other cheek.
                              C
You couldn't really stand the pace,
            D            G
And I would never, be so meek.

Chorus 3:

C      D         G
 These dreams of you,
C   D           G
 So real and so true.
C      D         G
 These dreams of you,
C   D        G
 So real, so true.

Bridge 2:

           Em
And hush-A-bye,
      D            G
Don't ever think a-bout it,
      Em
Go to sleep;
      D            G
Don't ever say one word.

          Em
Close you eyes;
    D      G      Em
You are an angel,
C           D
 Sent down,
       G
From A-bove.
