Colonel Forbin
By Phish Tab by Richard Davis
Intro = G# Adim 4x

Verse =
G# C#m7 F#m7
Colonel Forbin stared up at the mountain
B
And wiped away the beads of sweat
E
That glistened on his brow
F#m7 G9 C#6
His tired feet were buried in the quagmire
G#
And his bloodshot eyes were all that lay between him
A# G#
and fullfillment of his vow

G# C#m7 F#m7
And he felt his fingers wrap around the knotted root
B
and he pulled his body upwards
E
to a sea green mossy boulder
F#m7 G9 C#6
and he dragged his weary carcass up the mountain
F#m7 G
And he climb so slowly
F#m7 G
and he climb so slowly
A F F#m7 A
Ahead-----à
A F F#m7 A
Ahead-----à


C#7
Suddenly he heard the crack of thunder
D G
And the rocks began to crumble overhead
A C#7
and tumbled down the mountain to the
D G
dismal swampthat lay beneath the jagged cliffs
A C#7
through which his path had led
D G
and the earth began to quake before his eyes
A C#m7
and the mighty mountain change before his eyes
D G
and he stood admist a sea of dust and rocks and stones
A C#m7
cascading down the mountain
D G
and a thousand birds were heading fo the sky

A Bm7
and the scared creed will be yours
D G
and if you wait until tomorrow
F#m7
the sacred creed will be yours
G
to devour
F#m7
yours
G
to seize
A F F#m7 A
and to obey----à
A F F#m7 A
obey------------à


Then you repeat the whole song with different lyrics.
