Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Take a Pebble
Verse 1
[Em]Just take a pebble and [F#m]cast it to the sea,
[Em]Then watch the ripples that [F#m]unfold into me,
My [A5]face spill so gently [G5][D5/A]into your [G5]eyes,
[A5]Disturbing the waters of our [C][Bm/F#]lives.[E]
Verse 2
[Em]Shread of our memories are [F#m]lying on your grass;
[Em]Wounded words of laughter are [F#m]graveyards of the past.
[A5]Photographs are grey and torn, [G5][D5/A]scattered in your[G5] fields
[A5]Letters of your mem'ries [C]are [Bm/F#]not real.[E]
Guitar Rhythmics
(changes the bass in the arpeggio and then bends the minor third) IN D#
Verse 3
[Em]Sadness on your shoulders like a [F#m]wornout overcoat
[Em]In pockets creased and tattered hang [F#m]the rags of your hope.
The [A5]daybreak is your midnight; the [G5]colours [D5/A]have all [G5]died.
[A5]Disturbing the waters of our lives, of [C]our [Bm/F#]lives,[E] of our [C][Bm/F#]lives, [A][G]lives,
[F]lives...
Of our [Em]lives.
