Water On Snow - Black (Colin Vearncombe)
Live electric version from the 2007 tour.

Intro - (sung without guitar)

Did I sleep? Do I dream of cold, silent water
So deep and dark
And the wires are singing our song?
Our song

As we lay back and stared into cloudless skies
And the stars up there
The wires are singing our song
The wires are singing our song


1st Verse -

	    E7 (020130@1)	                          EAnd (022100@1)to never love again like you did before

This is a great song and is also the first song I've tried to transcribe (and done by 
so there may be some errors.
I would be interested to hear from anyone that has the chords for any other Colin 
songs.
