The Loner

Intro (play twice):
  (x)  (xii)  (v)  (vii) 

            

       
He's a perfect stranger
                              
Like a cross of himself and a fox
       
He's a feeling arranger
                             
And a changer of the ways he talks
         
He's the unforseen danger
                             
The keeper of the key to the locks
/         /* (see notes)
Know when you see him
/       /*
Nothing can free him
/       /
Step aside, open wide
  (rest)
    It's the loner

D5 (ad lib)

If you see him in the subway
He'll be down at the end of the car
Watching you move
Until he knows he knows who you are
When you get off at your station alone
He'll know that you are

Know when you see him
Nothing can free him
Step aside, open wide...

Ten silver saxes, a bass with a bow
The drummer relaxes and waits between shows
For his cinnamon girl

A dreamer of pictures I run in the night
You see us together chasing the moonlight

Down By The River

Intro (play 4 times):

...    Aadd4

                    Aadd4
   Be on my side, I'll be on your side, baby

                       Aadd4
   There is no reason for you to hide

                    Aadd4
   It's so hard for me staying here all alone

                         Aadd4
   When you could be taking me for a ride.

Chorus:

     
    Yeah, 

                 
    She could drag me over the rainbow, 

             
      send me a-way

              Aadd4
    Down by the ri-ver

            Aadd4
    I shot my ba-by

              Aadd4
    Down by the ri-ver

      Aadd4     Add4
  Dead.


Verse:
  You take my hand, I'll take your hand
  Together we may get away
  This much madness is too much sorrow
  It's impossible to make it today.

Chorus

Verse:
  Be on my side, I'll be on your side, baby
  There is no reason for you to hide
  It's so hard for me staying here all alone
  When you could be taking me for a ride.
