[Dm11] [Eb6/9] [Dm11] [Eb6/9] Verse :

--------

[C6/9]I'm travelling on some vehicle

[Fsus2add4]Sitting in some [F]cafe

A [Fsus2add4]defector from the petty wars

tha[F]t shell shock love[C] away

[C6/9]There's comfort in melancholy

[Fsus2add4]When there's no need [F]to explain

It's just as [Fsus2add4]natural as the w[F]eather

in this moody sky[C] today

In our possessive [Fadd9]coupling

So much could not be ex[C]pressed

So now I am re[Fadd9]turning to myself

These [Gadd9add4]things that you and I supresse[G9add4]d

[Gadd9add4] I see something of myself in [Fadd9]everyone

Just at this moment of the [C]world

As snow gathers like [Gadd9add4]bolts of lace

Waltzing on a [Fadd9]ballroom girl

Then back to the intro chords, and another verse...

#
#                       From the album 'Hejira'
#
#                       Tabbed by Howard Wright
#                       H.Wright@uk.ac.cf.astro
#
#
#
#First things first - the tuning.
#
#From low to high it is :  CGDFGC
#
#
#In 'Joni' notation this is :  C 7 7 3 2 5
#
#
#which means start with a C on the bottom string, tune the
#5th string to match the 7th fret of the bottom (6th) string, then
#tune the 4th string to match th 7th fret on the 5th string, and
#so on up the strings at frets 3,2 and 5
#
#
#I'll just give you the chord shapes - the picking pattern is fairly
#similar throughout - start by picking out the bottom 3 strings
#(working from top to bottom) then hit one or two of the top
#strings.  A bit vague I know, but you'll have to listen to the
#song to catch all the subtlelties.
#
#To give you a better idea, here is the intro bit in TAB :

#
