Dan Fogelberg - Anastasias Eyes guitar tab

"Anastasia's Eyes" - Dan Fogelberg 1990

This is a pretty simple song, chordwise, but you can throw in a lot of

sustained chords and stuff. The chords are placed fairly close to where I

think they should go, but the vocal phrasing is pretty loose in this song.

I play this with a capo on the first fret...

E A

There's thorns in the cactus tree

E

There's thorns on the rose

A

There's thorns in the heart of me

E

That nobody knows

G#m

They tear at the flesh until

A

The tears start to rise

E

They form in my heart

A E

But they fall from Anastasia's eyes

I was lost in the wilderness

Without courage or hope

I was setting my signal fires

And watching the smoke

When out of the smoke appeared

The sweetest surprise

I knew I'd been found

When first I looked into Anastasia's eyes

There's thorns in the cactus tree

There's thorns on the rose

There's thorns in the heart of me

That nobody knows

But finally I've found out where

My salvation lies

It lies in the love that lives in Anastasia's eyes

It lies in the love that lives in Anastasia's eyes
