REVERIES OF FLIGHT - Oh Sleeper
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Adrian Urban
Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)
Am C G
A sound ahead from distants peaks
Am C G
A song that all my brothers sing
F
It's just out of reach,
G
To join them I need
F
The wings the heavens
Em7
Denied me
Am
It's like you're deaf to my voice
C
But I've been here for every moment
F Em7
Waiting on your call to move
Am
If you could just make a choice,
C
I know you would find me wanting
F Em7
Only to be close to you.
No chords
(A song I hear from distant peaks, a song that all my brothers sing)
The following section is improvised since I can't hear out these chords!
Try and sing the part which is shouted and make your voice follow the chords,
then it sounds quite decent. If you know the chords, however, let me know :)
Am
You keep denying my lead
C G
Because I’ve tried, I’ve never pulled back my reach,
Am C G F
And I’ve stayed, and I’ve died, but you keep looking for me where I’m not
G Em7
I won’t be just where you want me to be
F G Em7
You’ve got to believe and just trust that I can be everything
Am
It's like you're deaf to my voice
C
But I've been here for every moment
F Em7
Waiting on your call to move
Am
If you could just make a choice,
C
I know you would find me wanting
F Em7
Only to be close to you.
Am Em7 Am Em7 Am Em7 Am
If you would just try and let free all your grips and worries
Em7 Am Em7 Am Em7 Am Em7 Am
I would come alive in your life and let you find the flight you’re longing
