Coming Up For Air

-----------------

(Patty Larkin)

(from the CD entitled "Perishable Fruit")

(Transcribed by Bob Cimikowski (cimo@cs.montana.edu))

Comments: This is one of the most soothing, relaxing,

intoxicating songs I have ever heard. Jane

Siberry's backing vocals have a lot to do with that.

Most remarkably, it is EASY to play, unlike

many of Larkin's songs. Just strum the 3 chords

forward and back repeatedly. Emphasize the base

strings while strumming.

Guitar tuning: eADGAD

Chords: (repeat these ad infinitum)

eADGAD

------

1: 320000 (note: slide up from chord 2 to chord 3 and back)

2: 332000

3: 554000

1 2 3 2

we are surrounded by so much water

1 2 3 2 etc.

that we might as well get a boat

or we could swim like neptune's daughters

to the other side of the moat

(refrain)

coming up for air

rising to a very new somewhere

coming up for air

on the last breath around

we are sleeping in a canyon

where the walls rise up to the sky

we could reach the rim by standing

and begin to breathe with a sign

(refrain)

we are swaying like a willow

that is weeping over the view

we could wave goodbye

and fly into the hills

and into the blue

(refrain)

on the last breath around

on the last breath around
