"NIGHTSWIMMING"

Intro....

G B(note)->C

G B(note)->D

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night...

G B(note)->C D

G B(note)->C A C D

(over and over again for the whole song... the two lines above are played

for each line)

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night

The photograph on the dashboard taken years ago

Turn around backwards so the windshield shows

Every streetlight reveals a picture and a verse

Still It's so much clearer

I forgot my shirt at the water's edge

The moon is low tonight

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night

i'm not sure all these people understand

It's not like years ago

The fear of getting caught

The recklessness in water

They cannot see me naked

These things they go away

Replaced by every day

Nightswimming remembering that night

September's coming soon

i'm pining for the moon

and what if there were two

Side by side in orbit

Around the fairest sun

A bright type could never drawn

could not describe, Nightswimming

You I thought I knew you, you I cannot judge,

you I thought you knew me, this one laughing quietly, underneath my breath

Nightswimming

The photograph reflects every streetlight a reminder

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night, deserves a quiet night

"Arms Of Love" (Robin Hitchcock) [B-Side to "Man on the Moon"]

I've tried to lay out the rythym as graphically as possible.

(d = down, ^ = up)

d d ^ ^ d ^ d d ^ ^ d ^ d d ^ ^ d d d ^ ^ d ^

G C G C G

(intro, same as first sung line)

G C G C G

Maybe tonight you're achin'

G F C C

For someone you're dreamin' of

D D C C

Tomorrow you'll be wakin Into the

D D/G* C C

Arms, into the arms of Love

(*You could use either a D, D/G, or a G here, whatever suits you best.)

Maybe tonight you're cryin

Like a poor wounded dove

Tell me you'll soon be flying

Into the Arms, into the arms of love

Maybe tonight you're takin

You couldn't get enough

Honey you'll soon be wakin'

Into the Arms, into the arms of Love

[Interlude, use same three lines of chords that run through the sung

verse.]

Maybe the world is falling

It wasn't strong enough

Tell me you'll soon be crawling

Into the Arms, into the arms of Love

(repeat to end)

"FRETLESS"

He's got his work, and she comes easy

They each come around when the other is gone

Me, I think I got stuck somewhere in between

I wouldn't confide in the prodigal son,

The dye has been cast, the battle is won

The bullets were blanks, a double locked gun

I couldn't admit to a minute of fun.

And they come and they come and they come

I accept it with a gentle tongue

No words spoken, no ? kept

Take it, stomp twice, ring bell

Tether that ringing, freeze

Enough with the rifle and talk already

We all know what it means

Take this conversation to your great divide

I can only swallow what I ate,

And I don't hate him, and I don't hate her.

And they come and they come and they come

I accept it with a gentle tongue

No heart broken, no ? kept

Don't talk to me about being alone

Don't talk to me about being alone

Don't talk to me about being alone

Reach for each other before you leave

Reach peace, P-E-A-C-E

Don't threaten me with a gentle tease,

Don't threaten me with angry

Please please please don't try to tell me what I am

And they come and they come and they come

I accept it with a gentle tongue

No words spoken, no ? except

Don't talk to me about being alone

Don't talk to me about being alone

Don't talk to me about being alone....

Ends on Em.
