------ YOU >From Bryan Killingsworth (akilling@pen.k12.va.us): 'You' off Monster is Dm, Gm for the verse and it holds Am for awhile and goes to C for the chorus (I think)...with a Dm riff during the verses (the notes are pretty much in the chord, hammer-on on the 2nd fret of G string and open D string). Let the sun beat through the clouds, Let me kiss you on the mouth. All my childhood toys with chew marks in from a smile. Let me hold your syrup close to mine. Let me watch you, Hollywood and Vine. And I want you like the movies, touch me now. I love you crazy, just keep on. I love you madly, just keep watch. You wipe my lips, You turn me on. My attentions are turned to you. Did I dream you were a tourist in the Arizona sun? I can see you there with luna moths and watermelon gum. I woke up in the sleeping bag, With nowhere else to run. You're standing in the bathroom telling me its all in fun. I love you crazy, just keep on. I love you madly, just keep watch. You wipe my lips, You turn me on. My attentions are turned to you. I can whisper in your ear. I can write a calendar year I can wing around your Saturn smile, shut out the moon I walked the tension wire line. And I learned to disrespect the signs. And I want you like a Pisces rising, even though I love you crazy, just keep on. I love you madly, just keep watch. You wipe my lips, You turn me on. My attentions are turned to you. -- ============================================================================== csb1@engr.uark.edu | Chris Bray cbray@comp.uark.edu | University of Arkansas, Fayetteville cbray@nyx.cs.du.edu | WWW: http://www.engr.uark.edu/~csb1 ============================================================================== I think someone should have had the decency to tell me the luncheon was free.
