Cynthia - Blue Rodeo
-------
Words and Music by: Greg Keelor and Jim Cuddy
>From the CD: Five Days in July
Original transcription by: tarkka@che.rochester.edu (Richard Tarkka)
Modified by: drake@sgl.ists.ca (Drake Hirasawa)
Changes to original transcription include adding lyrics for 2nd and
3rd verses, and chord changes in the chorus.
Also note: Chords have been changed to show a key of C, for use when
playing with a capo on the 2nd fret, which is how I believe the song is
played on the recording.
Key: D (capo in 2nd fret. Chords shown for key of C).
Intro:
C (with alternating bass)
Verse:
Em F C
So you saw that fire in the sky
Em C
Well I think that's so cool
Em F C
And I know that nothing'll change you
F G
You are nobody's fool
Chorus:
C G C F
Cynthia won't you take me to
C G
Pyramid Lake with you
F C F C
We could watch the spaceships, maybe they'll take us on a trip
F Dm F G C
To that never ending sky, to that wild and endless night.
And you stood in their beam of light
And they showed you the bones on the moon
Well I hope I get to go there
With you real soon
(chorus)
And we get there before the sun sets
And we put up your tent
Watch the stars dance all night
And watch the sun come up (watch that sun coming up)
(chorus)
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official BLUE RODEO tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
