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!
This is Neil Halstead's Dreamed I Saw Soldiers, off of his album Sleeping on Roads. These chords are
pretty simple, especially if you transpose it up a few steps and play with a capo. However, for the sake
of simply having these chords out there, I didnt do that. Mess around with picking patterns and whatever else
strikes your fancy.
[Intro]: A E B C#m
A E
Climbed out the window and stared at the stars
B C#m
But the moment I wanted had already passed
A E B C#m
Lost in the silence, blessed by the night
A E B C#m
Dreamed I saw soldiers; they were all dressed in white
A
All dressed in white
[Instrumental]: A E B C#m (x2)
A E
Well, the summer came late, so I slept here for days
B C#m
'Til Winter was over and my heart could be saved
A E B C#m
I walked for a lifetime and I climbed in a hole
A E B C#m
She had breasts on the outside, she had breath in her soul
A
Death in her soul
[Instrumental]
A E
Placed in a bottle and flung out to sea
B C#m
I was stung by the thought that the ship was now me
A E B C#m
Lost in the silence, blessed by the night
A E B C#m
I dreamed I saw soldiers; they were all dressed in white
A
All dressed in white
[Instrumental]
A E
A fellow by nature, I fell for a way
B C#m
That would shake me all over and spin me around
A E B C#m
Twisted my feelings 'til I nearly drowned
A E B C#m
It was love at first sight the first time around
A
Time around
[Instrumental]
A E
We stared at the walls 'til we lost all the dawn
B C#m
Waiting for words, I said, "I've been cursed by your love.”
A E B C#m
Crying for shame
A E B C#m
So what has become of our love?
A
Of our love?
[Instrumental]
A E
Now all the neighbors have stolen my stash
B C#m
I write poems about death; I ain't finished one yet
A E B C#m
Lost in the silence, blessed by the night
A E B C#m
I dreamed I saw soldiers; they were all dressed in white
A
All dressed in white
Instrumental: A E B C#m
