"The original appears to be in key of Bf; if you love bar chords
try this with bflat, F7, cminor instead. I have written it in the
key of A for sanity.
Enya does this with a simple pick: T234 T3 (or some variation thereof)
VOCAL VERSION:
(it's simple, but it works) -just pick the chords; this song is meant to
show off vocal improvisation, and the very nice slides up to the higher
notes. And don't spare the sentimentality; Remember valentine's day
isn;t that far away!
Time sig: feels like a 3/4 to me:
A E7 A
I dreamt I dwelt in marble halls
E7 (bm) (E7) A
with vassals and serfs by my side
A E7 A
And-of all those who assembled within those walls
E7 (Bm) (E7) A
that I was the hope and the pride.
--------------------------------------------------------
**if picking ignore the optional chords; nice for strumming)
A E7 Bm A
I had riches too great to count
E7 Bm E E7
and a high ancestral name ...... but
A E7 A
I also dreamt which pleased me most .....that
E7 (Bm) A
you loved me still the same.
A Bm (A) E7 Bm A
That you loved me.... you loved still the same;
A Bm (A) E7 Bm A
that you loved me ...you loved me still the same;
A E7 (Bm) D E7 A
that you loved me still.........the same..
-----------------------------------------------------------
vocal note: keep up the momentum, building on the last
4 lines; don't insert a rest between lines.

Second verse:
-------------
A E7 A
I dreamt that suitors sought my hand
E7 (bm) E7 A
that knights upon bended knee
A Eu A
and with vows no maiden's heart could withstand
E7 (bm) E7 A
they pledged their faith to me.
---------------------------------
A E7 Bm A
And I dreamt that one of the noble host
E7 Bm E E7
came forth my hand to claim.....But
A E7 A
.. I also dreamt which pleased me most....that
Bm (A) Em Bm A
you loved me , you loved me still the same........
A Bm (A) E7 Bm A
that you loved me ...you loved me still the same;
A E7 (Bm) D E7 A
that you loved me still.........the same..
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 ENYA 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.
