Verse:
So why does it seem
Like a picture
Hanging up on someone else's wall
G/DGDG G, DGDG G
Lately I just haven't been myself at all
It's heavy on my mind
Chorus:
I'm dreaming again
Like I've always been
And way down low
I still know
Verse:
That the prettiest thing
I ever did see
Was dusty as the handle on the door
G/DGDG G, DGDG G
Rusty as a nail stuck in the old pine floor
Looks like home to me
Piano Solo Improv based on chord progression Em, B, Dm7, G, F, C Very cool, but cannot
a piano tab for this sorry
Chorus:
I'm dreaming again
Like I've always been
And way down low
thinkin' of the prettiest thing
Outro Solo similar to 1st solo only more bluesy
Hope all Piano playing Norah fans like this. This song is NOwhere to be found tabbed or
on the internet. I worked my bum off on it with the rythm & bass lines. I wanted a
piano song to sing to without the need of accompaniment. I'm a fledgling player on both
& guitar so this was time consuming. Trying to line up things was difficult too. If
have questions, contact me at my profile. Peace.
