BUFFALO TOM - Late At Night (Big Red Letter Day)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
CRD done by Menno Luitjes, February 1994
"Euh.. This next song is about ghosts.
The kind in your mind, you know.. the ones in your castle."
(Tabbed from the live version they played last year in the Dutch radio
program 'Villa 65', lyrics are a bit different from BRLD.)
(i) INTRO:
D // D (2 fr.) D / Dsus2 //// D D(2) D /
(ii) PLAY THIS AT THE VERSES:
Dsus2-D // D (2 fr.) D Dsus2 O A (2 fr.)-Am
I-i close my door at ni-ight
Am / / / A (2 fr.)-C
But they get in all-right
[C]And [/]she [/]turns [/]on the [G/D]light[////] [D] [//]
(3 TIMES) AND AT THE END DO THE 'G/D-D' BREAK ONE TIME EXTRA.. THEN PLAY
(iii) THE CHORUS, LIKE THIS (I hope):
[C]If I could hold them in my [G]hand
G O-Am
I'd make them under-stand
[Am]I'm not a haunted [C]mind
[C]I'm not a thoughtless [G/D]kind[////] [D] [//]
(2 TIMES) AND AGAIN AN EXTRA 'G/D-D' BREAK.
THE SONG ENDS WITH PLAYING THIS 3 TIMES:
[Am]I do it if I [C]could
[C]I hope you know I [G/D]would[////] [D] [//]
YOU PROBABLY GOT IT AFTER THIS SLIGHTLY OVERDONE EXPLANATION...
LYRICS:
-------
I close my door at night,
But they get in allright,
And she turns on the light.
I, I held her hands so tight,
'Cause words don't come out right,
When she sees things at night.
But me, I'm closer to the door,
I don't get scared no more,
But i don't know the score.
(CHORUS:)
If I could hold them in my hand,
I'd make them understand.
I'm not a haunted mind,
I'm not a thoughtless kind.
If I could put them in a jar,
I know they wouldn't scar. (??)
I do it if I could,
I hope you know I would.
(END:)
I do it if I could,
I hope you know I would. (3x)
