Murder of One - Counting Crows
transcribed by Steve Vetter [vetters@vax1.elon.edu]
lyrics from cs.uwp.edu
This is really loosely done. You'll definitely have to listen to
the recording.
F# 244322
B x24442
C#m x46644
F# F# B B F# F# B B
C#m
Blue morning Blue morning
B
Wrapped in strands of fist and bone
C#m
Curiosity, Kitten,
B
Doesn't have to mean you're on your own
C#m
You can look outside your window
B
He doesn't have to know
C#m
We can talk awhile, baby
B
We can take it nice and slow
F# B
All your life is such a shame, shame, shame
F# B
All your love is just a dream, dream, dream
Are you happy when you're sleeping?
Does he keep you safe and warm?
Does he tell you when you're sorry?
Does he tell you when you're wrong?
I've been watching you for hours
It's been years since we were born
We were perfect when we started
I've been wondering where we've gone
All your life is such a shame
All your love is just a dream
C#m B
I dreamt I saw you walking up a hillside in the snow
C#m B
Casting shadows on the winter sky as you stood there counting crows
C#m B
One for sorrow Two for joy
Three for girls and four for boys
Five for silver Six for gold and
Seven for a secret never to be told
There's a bird that nests inside you
Sleeping underneath your skin
When you open up your wings to speak
I wish you'd let me in
F#m B
All your life is such a shame
All your love is just a dream
Open up your eyes
You can see the flames of your wasted life
You should be ashamed
You don't want to waste your life
F#
I walk along these hillsides In the summer 'neath the sunshine
B
I am feathered by the moonlight falling down on me
F# B
Change, chane, change

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 COUNTING CROWS 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.
