Subject: Re: Blue Prairie V2

Here's Blue Prairie with a bit more difficult chording in the chorus;
the dim chords in the chorus seem to add a more haunting color to the tune.

Blue Prairie
(Capo up to 3rd Fret for same Key as recording)
Intro Am Am7 Am6 F Am E7 Am

Am F Em
Blue prairie, Blue are the skies.
Dm E7 Am F E7
Blue are the sighs, Of a night wind, Callin'.

Am F Em
Blue Prairie, Blue are the hills.
Dm E7 Am F E7
Blue are the trills, Of a nightbird, Callin'.

(chorus)-----------------------------------
Am E Am E Am E Am
Every beatin' heart beats a rhythm that is blue.
Am E7 Am E7 Am E7 Am
And the moon has cast a blue reflection on the moon
Fdim
So the wind while on it's way,
F#dim
Seems to cry and sigh and say
Gdim F#dim Gdim (or down to Fdim)
Blue ooooh ooooh

Instr. Break
--------------------------------------
Am F Em
Blue Prairie, Blue echoes ring
Dm E7 Am
Blue as I sing of a longing
F E7 Am
Blue as you....

(Chorus and repeat verse 3 to end)
