Song: Linda Paloma, from the album The Pretender Artist: Jackson Browne Transcription: Navid ([email protected]) Date: 2000-12-20 LINDA PALOMA Intro: (G) D7 C G [pause] D7 C G At the moment the music began, and you heard the guitar player starting sing D7 C G You were filled with the beauty that ran, through what you were imagining C Em D7 Dreaming of scenes from those songs of love, I was the endless sky C G And you were my Mexican dove. D7 C G Now the music that played in your ears, grows a little bit fainter each day D7 C G And you find yourself looking through tears, at the love you feel slipping away C Em Though it's not the kind, of love you might hope to find D7 C G If tears could release the heart, from the shadows preferred by the mind Interlude: (G) D7 C G x 2 D7 C G Like a wind that comes up in the night, caressing your face while you sleep D7 C G Love will fill your eyes with the sight, of a world you can't hope to keep C Em D7 Dreaming on after that moment's gone, the light in your lover's eyes C G C Disappears in the light of the dawn, but the morning brings, strength to your Em Bm Em restless wings, and some other lover sings to the sun's bright corona, [pause] D7 C G (G) D7 C G I know all about these things, Linda Paloma. D7... G G Em D7 G Fly away...Linda Paloma. I dedicate this posting to *SUSAN* who has inspired me with her "Bright Baby Blues"... Navid
