"Play Me" by Neil Diamond
Opening is basically a finger picking of a basic [D] chord, picking the strings
in a legato style. Most of the song (except the chorus) is pretty much played
the same way....
[D]
She was morning and I was night time.
[G]
I one day woke up to find her lyin' beside my bed.
[D]
I softly said, "Come take me."
[D]
For I've been lonely, in need of someone
[G]
As though I'd done someone wrong somewhere, but I don't know where.
[D]
I don't know where, come lately
[G] [A]
You are the sun, I am the moon,
[G/B] [A7] [D]
You are the words, I am the tune, play me.
[D]
Song, she sang to me, song she brang to me,
[G]
Words that rang in me, rhyme that sprang from me warmed the night.
[D]
And what was right became me.
[G] [A]
You are the sun, I am the moon,
[G/B] [A7] [D]
You are the words, I am the tune, play me.
[Instrumental; Finger picking through these chords....number in () is number
of bars for that chord.]

[D]
She was morning and I was night time.
[G]
I one day woke up to find her lyin' beside my bed.
[D]
I softly said, "Come take me."
[D]
So it was that I came to travel,
[G]
Upon a road that was thorned and narrow, another place,
[D]
Another grace would save me.
[G] [A]
You are the sun, I am the moon,
[G/B] [A7] [D] [Dsus4] [D]
You are the words, I am the tune, play me.
[G] [A]
You are the sun, I am the moon,
[G/B] [A7] [D] [D7] [G] [D] [Em] [D]
You are the words, I am the tune, .....play........ me.
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 NEIL DIAMOND 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.
