Play Me Tab

by Neil Diamond


"Play Me" by Neil Diamond

Opening is basically a finger picking of a basic [D] chord, picking the strings
in a legato style. Most of the song (except the chorus) is pretty much played
the same way....

She was morning and I was night time.
                                    []
I one day woke up to find her lyin' beside my bed.
                     []
I softly said, "Come take me."
    []
For I've been lonely, in need of someone
                                                  []
As though I'd done someone wrong somewhere, but I don't know where.
                         []
I don't know where, come lately
[]              []
You are the sun, I am the moon,
[]              []           []
You are the words, I am the tune, play me.

Song, she sang to me, song she brang to me,
                                                 []
Words that rang in me, rhyme that sprang from me warmed the night.
                   []
And what was right became me.
[]              []
You are the sun, I am the moon,
[]              []           []
You are the words, I am the tune, play me.

[Instrumental; Finger picking through these chords....number in () is number
 of bars for that chord.]

So it was that I came to travel,
                                                  []
Upon a road that was thorned and narrow, another place,
                         []
Another grace would save me.

You are the sun, I am the moon,

You are the words, I am the tune, .....play........ me.
