Strange Street Affair Under Blue
(Beckett/Buckley)

TIM BUCKLEY
From Tim Buckley, 1966

Verse 1:
                      
Just for you with your open hands
                      
Waiting for the touch of man
()                 
Clutching with your blackened gloves
                        
You try to capture all the doves
          
That flee into
           
The forest before you

Verse 2:
You wish to catch and cage me now
I wonder if you remember how
Hard it was to say the names
Of mirror dreams and cheated games
And on the wall
You framed your first lover

Verse 3:
Your form intrigues me with the glow
I'll remember you I know
Though I forgot to lock the chain
Around you with a prayer for rain
To bring the call
To drive you back into my bed


Ahhh....
She turns away
Telling me to follow for a while
Ahhh....
She waits

                  
You'd be touched if you would touch
           
But you only reach and taunt
                  
Will my taste stay grey and blue
                   
If I try to turn from you

****
Listen to the song to find out how it goes.
The intro is just electric guitars over a G chord.
I could have tabbed it, but, oh well...
