Tuning: E A D G B E

This was originally penned by Baz Warne, now current lead guitarist/vocalist on The Stranglers. It's a pretty mellow song that comes off the Norfolk Coast album. Some of the vocal phrasing, especially verse 2 is a little tricky, so I'd suggest listening to the song. Chords are pretty simple: Em, C, D, Bm, G. I play it with a capo on the second fret. Standard tunings. Enjoy! Verse 1:

^EmI’ve seen you there, I’ve seen you doing your thing in your own^C space, In your own^D time, and that’s jus^Bmt fine

^EmBut where do you go And have you been somewhere lately where you’ve^C seen, You’d be carefre^De, if not for ^Bmme

Chorus

^EmLook back to the^Bm time when our pat^Chs first came together^G ^EmGazing at a^D yellow Dutch ^Cmoon, do it soo^Bmn

^EmRemember my face^Bm and the pla-^Cces it took yo^Gu ^BmUnder a fadi^Dng Dutch moo^Emn

[Guitar Solo] Repeat Chorus Verse 2:

^EmI felt you go, I felt you leaving behind all that we^C had,

In an ^Dinstant, you’re a fir^Bmebrand, now I curse th^Eme moon, Forever leading me gently by my^C hand

Into your^D land ^CBy my hand, into your^D land

^CBy my hand, into your^D land ^CBy my hand, into your^D land
