Neild - I Am I Said guitar tab

Someone requested this; it's just off the top -- there may be mistakes;

I Am I Said

by Neil Diamond

Verse:

First four lines are spoken, next two sung:

G C G

LA's fine, the sun shines, most 'the time

D

And the feeling is laid back

D7 D7 D7 D7

Palm trees grow and rents are low but-I-gotta-feeling-like-I-gotta-start

G

Making my way back

G G7 C

I'm New York City born and raised but nowadays I'm lost between two shores.

D7 D7 G

LA's fine but it ain't home and New York's home but it ain't mine no more.

Chorus:

G

I am I said

C

To noone there

D D7 D-C-G D

And noone heard at all, not even the chair

G

I am I cried

C

I am said I

D D7 D-C-G D

And I am lost and I don't even know why

(tacit) Leaving me lonely still

Verse 2:

Did-you-ever-hear-about-the-frog-who-dreamed-about-being-a-king

And suddenly became one?

Well, except for the names and a few other changes

My story's the same one

But I have an emptiness deep inside so strong it won't let me go

And I'm not a man who likes to swear but I've never cared for the sound

of being alone.

Chorus

Chorus.

Tom Jones
