Topic: Astral Woman in Blues

Well I spent a week traveling from Basel to Amsterdam and on the last night I heard a blues song that was sounded so  beautiful. I got to thinking that my Astral Dream Woman song might fit so much better into the blues. So when I got home I changed it up to this.

Let me know what you think. I'm "pretty sure" I did this in 12 bar blues style, about 80 BPM tempo.

Astral Dream Woman BLUES VERSION  by Jim Kenyon


Verse 1


.




[E]A butterfly vision with lovely soft wings [E]etched with free spirits like cosmic stars


Yeah, she[A] lived by her own rules, made no excuses [E]kept no secrets, just followed her heart


With her[B7] head filled with dreams, no boundaries, no fear


and a [A] siren's song in her heart, that only I can [E]hear




Verse 2


.


[E] A free soul filled with love and passion, [E]like a rhapsody played just right


with a [A]smile that lit up any room, like the [E] moon as an enchanted night


yeah a [B7] dreamer dancing with magical steps


She’s the[A] kind of woman you never can for[E]get


.


Verse 3




[E] all I've got are these mystical memories. to [E]keep my hopes alive


Like the [A]stars shining in the sky above, I can [E] still see her pretty eyes


with her [B7]kisses so warm, my troubles just melted away


oh ya' [A] know I miss her, every second of every [E] day



.




Verse 4




[E] this astral dream woman, the love of my life, [E]her love sparks burned my soul


In the [A] silence of the night, I still fight back [E] the tears I can’t control


But these [B7] ecstasy winds are blowing across the sea


And I [A] still hear her sweet, sweet voice that brings her back to [E] me




with her [B7] gentle kisses so warm, troubles melt away


And I[A] know I miss her, every second of every [E] day


.


outgo- slower


oh these [B7] ecstasy winds are blowing across the sea


And I [A] still hear her sweet, sweet voice that brings her back....


yeah, they bring her back,


yeah, they bring her back,


yeah, they bring back my astral dream woman to [E]me
