* Song: * Album: * Version: * Interpretation: * Tuning: * Notes: Moonslide Between The Mountain And The Moon. 1 / 2 »»» Christian Poelma (Chris***removethis***@isotropy.net) DADGAD This is just a draft version... Anyway: A very beautiful song, basically consisting of a repeated pattern (A) with some subtle variations. The interlude after the chorus has some tricky triplets. The tab for this part is not really accurate, additions are welcome! Add some random 'bicycle bells' & Sinead O'Connor backing vocals and Presto.

Moonslide

<12>  natural harmonic
(12)  softly

Verse 1:
Have you ever been afraid to dive in
Sitting at the edge of the pool
Imagining breast and backstrokes
Ah such a sad little fool
 
Chorus:
Come in Love, I'm waiting at the shore
Come in Love, I've no resistance anymore
 
Verse 2:
Have you heard the seaweed crackle
At the incoming tide
It can taste the moisture
And feel the moonslide
 
Chorus:
Come in Love, I'm waiting at the shore
Come in Love, I've no resistance anymore
