Play Me

Neil Diamond

Opening is basically a finger picking of a normal D chord.
Most of the song (except the chorus) is pretty much played
the same way.
 

 
 
[Verse 1]
D
She was morning and I was night time.
                                     G
I one day woke up to find her lyin' beside my bed.
               D
I softly said, "Come take me."
    D
For I've been lonely, in need of someone
                                                   G
As though I'd done someone wrong somewhere, but I don't know where.
                        D
I don't know where, come lately
 
{ CHORUS }
G                A
You are the sun, I am the moon
G/B                A7             D
You are the words, I am the tune, play me
 
[Verse 2]
D
Song, she sang to me, song she brang to me,
                                                 G
Words that rang in me, rhyme that sprang from me warmed the night.
                   D
And what was right  became me.
 
{ CHORUS }
G                A
You are the sun, I am the moon
G/B                A7             D
You are the words, I am the tune, play me

D
And so it was that I came to travel
                                 G
Upon a road that was thorned and narrow
                             D
Another place, another grace, would save me
 
{ CHORUS }
G                A

You are the sun, I am the moon
G/B                A7             D    D7   G    D   Em   D
You are the words, I am the tune, play
