Greg Lake: Footprints in the snow
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

From: Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Black Moon

Transcription by: Rainer Boettchers (boettchers.pad@sni.de)
Paderborn/Germany, July 1996

Tuning: EADGBE (Standard)

Comments: As this song is rather simple (compared to other songs
from Greg Lake) this is only a .CRD file.
Greg, as usual, inserts some variations.
Some special chord forms:
Dmaj* = short switches between Dmaj and Dsus4add9 no 5th
(xx0232 and xx0032, just lift your index finger
and
hammer on again)
Dmaji1 = 1st inversion Dmaj (xx4232, use pinky
for 4th fret on D4)

*** Intro:

Dmaj Dsus4n5 Dmaj Dsus4n5 Dmaji1 Amin Cmaj Dmaj

*** Main theme/bridge:

Dmaj* Gmaj
First time when you looked at me ...

You tried to hide but I could see

Dmaj*
A special beauty in your eyes

Gmaj
Passion flying like a spark ...

Like an arrow to the mark

Dmaj*
I feel it sting my jealousy

Amin Cmaj Dmaj*
Before you know there's footprints in the snow

(Dmaj* Dsus4n5 Dmaji1 Amin Cmaj Dmaj*)

Dmaj* Gmaj
Desire like a river flows ...

Where it comes from no one knows

Dmaj*
It isn't heard, it isn't seen

Gmaj
Love just like a flower grows ...

And then God only knows

Dmaj* Amin
It comes down like guillotine ...

Cmaj
Now I feel the rain

Gmaj Dmaj Amin
of love torn by a hurricane ...

Cmaj Gmaj
One night eclipsed the sun ...

Dmaj*
How deep still waters run

Amin Cmaj Dmaj*
How deep they go like footprints in the snow

(Dmaj* Dsus4n5 Dmaji1 Amin Cmaj Dmaj*)

Dmaj* Gmaj
Take my love into your brest ...

Commit my spirit to the test

You'll see him like a knight

Dmaj*
His armour gleams

Gmaj
We'll fly upon his angel's wings ...

Above the clouds in rainbow rings

Dmaj* Amin
We can sail a ship of dreams ...

Cmaj
If you will take my hand

Gmaj Dmaj Amin
We can cross this desert made of sand ...

Cmaj Gmaj
We can break in through the ice ...

Dmaj
Feel the wind of paradise

Amin Cmaj Dmaj*
We'll feel it blow our footprints in the snow

(Dmaj* Dsus4n5 Dmaji1 Amin Cmaj Dmaj*)

Dmaj* Gmaj
Anytime you feel alone ...

Just raise your hand, pick up the phone

Dmaj*
Tap in my number, there I'll be

Gmaj
If one day your stars won't shine ...

I will give you some of mine

Dmaj* Amin
Cause they could fall so easily ......

Cmaj
If you will take my hand

Gmaj Dmaj Amin
We can cross this desert made of sand ...

Cmaj Gmaj
We can break in through the ice ...

Dmaj
Feel the wind of paradise

Amin Cmaj Dmaj*
We'll feel it blow our footprints in the snow

(Dmaj* Dsus4n5 Dmaji1 Amin Cmaj Dmaj*)

Amin Cmaj Dmaj
We both know there's footprints in the snow
