(Lyrics borrowed from pinkfloyd.colorado.edu)

*Intro Solo*
Note - You should listen closely during the intro solo as some of
the notes are harder to hear and the phrasing is hard to tabulate
without listening to the record.  On the original "More" CD, if
you balance out the left speaker and listen only to the right,
the solo is much easier to hear.  This guitar continues throughout
the verses.  I put in the chords from the other guitar so the solo
can be made out easily.

*Verse 1*

G                        C
Heavy hung the canopy of blue

G                       C
Shade my eyes and I can see you

G            Bm         C                  Em             D
White is the light that shines through the dress that you wore

*Verse 2*

    G                        C
She lay in the shadow of the wave

G                            C
Hazy were the visions of her playing

G               Bm       C                  Em        D
Sunlight on her eyes but moonshine made her cry ev'ry time

*Verse 3*

G                          C
Green is the colour of her kind

G                      C
Quickness of the eye deceives the mind

G           Bm               C               Em         D
Envy is the bond between the hopeful and the damned

*Piano Solo*
G       G       G       D       (repeat and fade out)
