Ooh Boy Lyrics

Ooh Boy ? Sleepy Sun

Superbly beautiful and warm song. Also check this out:
http://www.youtube.com/watch'v=6UMkGRjyoSo . I tabbed the album version - only
difference in the last 'ooh boy, ooh boy'
which changes from E to A to E instead of staying on the E. It's a definite improvement
though, so when you're playing without the CD/LP on, I'd suggest the youtube progression.
GUITAR 1 (acoustic & strumming, while alternating between the E and A string till 'don't
let the swell... ', where it'll take refuge in just strumming)
The fire's out, the sun is down
On the beach we were
Oh, my stars, they're soaring again
And you've gone on to leave your breath
Don't let the swell calm down
The water is drowning our faith
Don't let the evil light carry our own weight
And carry our souls away
Ooh, boy, it's a long way,
A (E|-3b4-0-|)E
It's a long way home (play 2x)
Ooh, boy, ooh boy
It's a long way home (play 2x)
GUITAR 2 (acoustic and filling up space)
Fig 1, during intro, till 'don't let the swell calm down')
Fig 2, fill between 'carry our souls away' and the 'ooh boy'-ing.
GUITAR 3 (electric, heavily distorted, reverbed, tape delayed does some random stuff
with these notes and a slide. Tabbed out the first part, the rest is pretty much untabable,
random slide-movements will produce perfect results!)
