                      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
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/e/emerson_lake_and_palmer/footprints_in_the_snow_crd.html ]
                         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
