Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
here's yet another song i found transcribed in a different key (G),
capoed (II), but, i like the way it sounds my way, no capo, in A.
another song i wished i'd written, too, except lucy got to it first!

THE TIDE
-Lucy Kaplansky
A E
A
There are demons in the water
E
There are devils in the sea
D
There are dangers in the current
A E
When the tide goes out of me
A
I could drink you under the table
E
I could drink you out of town
D
I could drink you off the planet
A E
Drink myself into the ground
CHORUS:
A E
And I have nothing for you tonight
F#m E D
I have nothing for you tonight
A E
I have nothing for you tonight
F#m D
I have nothing for you
A
I was made to be a good girl
E
Carried buckets made of stone
D
Full of envy, full of sorrow
A E
On a tightrope all alone
A
And all the time I was on fire
E
I burned with every stride
D
And now I see this anger
A E
Is the horse I choose to ride
A
Now you say you want something nice from me
E
Well if you find it, take it, it's on me
D
In the meantime don't bother me
A E
The tide has washed the nice from me
CHORUS:
A E
And I have nothing for you tonight
F#m E D
I have nothing for you tonight
A E
I have nothing for you tonight
F#m D
I have nothing for you
A
In nothing are the voices
E
And the pictures of my life
D
In the nothing of the sky
A E
Is an ocean made of light
A
In the nothing of my silence
E
Is a sad-eyed little girl
D
On a tightrope she is singing
A E
As she passes through this world
CHORUS:
A E
And I have nothing for you tonight
F#m E D
I have nothing for you tonight
A E
I have nothing for you tonight
F#m D
I have nothing for you ...
