  				Verse 1 / Intro 
	Principal Key: E Minor 
Em                D              G                    B7 
    Out on the tar plains……the glides are moving 
Em     D                  G                  B7 
    All looking for a new place to drive 
Em               D          G                   B7 
    You sit beside me,…..so newly charming 
Em               D                          G                   B7 
    Sweating dew drops glisten, freshing your side 
	Pre-Chorus 
	Principal Key: E Minor 
            G                                   B7  
    The sun slips down bedding heavy behind 
           Em                               B 
    The front of your dress all shadowy lined 
                  G                      B 
    And the droning engine throbs in time 
             Em                B 
    With your beating heart 

Chorus

C            Edim/Bb          B

Verse 2 
Principal Key: E Minor 
Em 
        Way down the lane away, living for another day 
        The aphids swarm up in the drifting haze 
        Swim seagull in the sky  
        Towards that hollow western isle 
                                                                   B7 
        My envied lady holds you fast in her gaze
