Traffic

Cryin To Be Heard

by Traffic
Traffic

Biography:



The English rock band Traffic started out with Steve Winwood, Dave Mason, Jim Capaldi, and Chris Wood after Winwood left The Spencer Davis Group. From their beginning, in 1967, they were quite popular in their native England, though success elsewhere was slower in coming. Their first three albums combined psychedelic rock and soul with elements of British folk music, giving them a unique, groundbreaking sound. Their most popular single was Dear Mr. Fantasy, from the album of the same name.

"Cryin' To Be Heard"
(Dave Mason)

Intro:

(saxes, bass, and organ over verse chord progression)

Chorus:

D Bb F
Somebody's cryin' to be heard
D Bb F D/A
And there's also someone who hears every word

Verse 1:

Am D Am D
Sail across the ocean with your back against the wind
Gm C Gm C
Listening to nothing save the calling of a bird
Am D Am D
And when the rain begins to fall, don't you start to curse
Gm C Gm C
It may be just the tears of someone that you never heard

[repeat chorus]

Verse 2:

Reflected in the water is a face that you don't know
And isn't it surprising when you find out it's your own?
And so you try to find out whether it is friend or foe
And what it wants to know, and what it wants to know

[repeat chorus]

Verse 3:

Well, you're wrapped up in your little world and no one can get in
You sit and think of everything, then you wonder where you've been
You put the blame on someone that you've hardly ever known
And then you realize too late the blame was all your own

[repeat chorus]

[repeat verse 1, call-and-response]:

Sail across the ocean with your back against the wind
(sail across the ocean with your back against the wind)
Listening to nothing save the calling of a bird
(listening to nothing save the calling of a bird)
And when the rain begins to fall, don't you start to curse
(and when the rain begins to fall don't you start
to curse)
It may be just the tears of someone that you never heard
(it may be just the tears of someone that you
never heard)

[repeat chorus]

Coda:

(long jam on D to end)
