In the recorded song, all these chords are synthed to bizarre 7th,
9th, 39th and 647th chords. The chords used here are not dead on by
any means, but are about as close as you can get on a guitar without
raiding the chord books. The relative pitch is right, it's just the
absolute pitch that may be off a little.
It felt like springtime on this February morning
in the courtyard birds were singing your praise
I'm still recalling things you said to make me feel
alright, I carry them with me today now
As I lay me down to sleep, yes I pray, that you will hold me dear
though I'm far away, I whisper your name, into the sky
and I will wake up happy
I wonder why -- I feel so high, while I'm not above my sorrow
Heavy hearted 'til you call my name
and it sounds like churchbells or the whistle of a train
On a summer evening I want to meet you there, I'm barely breathing...
Chorus x2
It's not too near for me, like a flower I need the rain
though it's not real to me, every season has its change
and I will see you when the sun comes out again
Chorus x2
