                             Sundown

                             -------

                      by Gordon Lightfoot

Transcribed by Mark Galassi (rosalia@max.physics.sunysb.edu).  Gordon

plays this in F# (probably in E with capo on 2nd fret) on the Gord's

Gold album.  I saw him do it in concert in A with capo on first fret.

I guess his voice has changed since he recorded it.  He plays it on a

twelve string guitar.

E

I can see her lyin' back in her satin dress

     B7                         E

In a room where you do what you don't confess

    E              A

R1. Sundown, you'd better take care

         D                                E

    If I find you've been creeping 'round my back stairs [twice]

She's been looking like a queen in a sailor's dream

And she don't always say what she really means

R2. Sometimes I think it's a shame

    When I get feeling better when I'm feelin' no pain [twice]

I can picture every move that a man could make

Getting lost in your lover is the first mistake

R1.

R3. Sometimes I think it's a sin

    When I feel like I'm winning when I'm loosing again

I can see her looking fast in her faded jeans

She's a hard lovin' woman got me feelin' mean

R2. R1. R1. R3.
