Greg, as usual, inserts some variations. Some special chord forms: Dmaj* = short switches between Dmaj and Dsus4add9 no 5th (xx0232 and xx0032, just lift your index finger and hammer on again) Dmaji1 = 1st inversion Dmaj (xx4232, use pinky for 4th fret on D4) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *** Intro: D Dsus4n5 D Dsus4n5 Dmaji1 Am9 C D *** Main theme/bridge: D* G First time when you looked at me ... You tried to hide but I could see D* A special beauty in your eyes G Passion flying like a spark ... Like an arrow to the mark D* I feel it sting my jealousy Am9 C D* Before you know there's footprints in the snow (Dmaj* Dsus4n5 Dmaji1 Amin Cmaj Dmaj*) D* G Desire like a river flows ... Where it comes from no one knows D* It isn't heard, it isn't seen G Love just like a flower grows ... And then God only knows D* Am9 It comes down like guillotine ... C Now I feel the rain G D Am9 of love torn by a hurricane ... C G One night eclipsed the sun ... D* How deep still waters run Am9 C D* How deep they go like footprints in the snow (Dmaj* Dsus4n5 Dmaji1 Amin Cmaj Dmaj*) D* G Take my love into your brest ... Commit my spirit to the test You'll see him like a knight D* His armour gleams G We'll fly upon his angel's wings ... Above the clouds in rainbow rings D* Am9 We can sail a ship of dreams ... C If you will take my hand G D Am9 We can cross this desert made of sand ... C G We can break in through the ice ... D Feel the wind of paradise Am9 C D* We'll feel it blow our footprints in the snow (Dmaj* Dsus4n5 Dmaji1 Amin Cmaj Dmaj*) D* G Anytime you feel alone ... Just raise your hand, pick up the phone D* Tap in my number, there I'll be G If one day your stars won't shine ... I will give you some of mine D* Am9 Cause they could fall so easily ...... C If you will take my hand G D Am9 We can cross this desert made of sand ... C G We can break in through the ice ... D Feel the wind of paradise Am9 C D* We'll feel it blow our footprints in the snow (Dmaj* Dsus4n5 Dmaji1 Amin Cmaj Dmaj*) Am9 C D We both know there's footprints in the snow ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ====================================================================== Rainer Boettchers Paderborn/Germany mailto:boettchers.pad@sni.de Siemens Nixdorf AG LoB OEC SAM TS1 April 16, 1997 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The language and concepts contained herein are guaranteed not to cause eternal torment in the place where the guy with the horns and pointed stick conducts his business.
