Song: Please Stand By
Artist: Skypark
Album: Siani- Another Night With the Frogs
Chorded by Greg Oden (nedogerg@hotmail.com)
This is a really pretty song, but, like all pretty songs, should be done
in your own style as much as in the style of the artist.This is my
interpretation of this song, and while I'm sure Joey, Tyrone, and the
gang would be horrified to hear me play it, but I like it.
intro: G G/C G/C Em
G C G C G
Ah, she, she knows Your love,
Em
but she's not letting go.
G C G C G
and, she, she tries to hide
Em
like a blood stain in snow.
Am B C
and she flies,
Am B C Am B C
with a sheepish grin and star-crossed eyes.
D--------------------------------------
and she tells You to please stand by.
G C G C G
And You, You spill and spend
Em
but She won't turn around.
G C G C G
You trade, Your crown, for nails
Em
hoping she'll hear the sound
Am B C
as You cry,
Am B C Am B C
with a mothers love and a lovers sigh.
D-------------------------------------
and she tells You to please stand by.
Note: you can do a lot of neat things with this song by adding
walk downs and rhythm changes. the walk up from Am B and C sound
really good with an off-beat rest in it. I like to do a Bob Dylan
harmonica part in the break like Joey does, but I can't tab it out.
let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works
and glorify your father in heaven.
