She Came And She Touched Me Chords & Tabs
She Came And She Touched Me Chords
capo at 4th. fret
C F C G C F C G
She came and she touched me with hands made of heaven
Em F C
Reflections sent spinnin' through a face laced in mist.
F C G C F C G
Now I stand where she left me buried deep 'neath her shadow
Em F C
And mirror pleads sadly has it all come to this?
G F G G7
And I wonder, will she call my name?
C F C G C F C G
Where the wind careens madly through wide windows paneless
Em F C
Fragrances mingle in a room full of shade
F C G C F C G
The peons pick partners and waltz 'cross the ceiling
Em F C
But the violins whisper, "have I been betrayed?"
G F G G7
Tryin' not to look ashamed.
C F C G C F C G
Where the drunkards drink deeply from cups full of nothin'
Em F C
It's ghost-lover's laugh at the games that they play
F C G C F C G
While the moments do summersaults into eternity
Em F C
Cling to their coat-tails and beg them to stay

G F G G7
Sayin', " I got nothin' to hide".
C F C G C F C G
Where illusions projected on walls made of tiffany
Em F C
Mad minuets to a sad satin song
F C G C F C G
The harlequin mandolins harmonize helplessly
Em F C
Hoping that endlessly won't last for long
G F G G7
Prayin' that their god ain't died.
C F C G C F C G
Then I turn and I see her in a dress made of moonlight
Em F C
Teardrops like diamonds slide slow down her face
F C G C F C G
And her arms they surround me like chains made of velvet
Em F C
And the demons fall faithfully into their place
G F G G7
And the rivers run with jewels.
C F C G C F C G
Now the morning lies open, the night went quite quickly
Em F C
Memory harmlessly fractures and fades
F C G C F C G
All the poets do push-ups on carpets of rubber foam
Em F C
Loudly they laugh at some joke that's been made
G F G G7
And the wise men speak like fools.
