Railroad Earth - Day On The Sand Chords & Tabs

DAY ON THE SAND                                  
RAILROAD EARTH

I've left out a lot of detail, so this is just the skeleton of the song… no 
mistakes-mistakes that I'm aware of.


Capo on 6

Em  

    [verse1]
C      G/B   D/A	     C	 	          D
Oh   my    love    the long day unwinds
So many memories Underneath these pines
The house down the old road it still looks the same
But no one to greet us down the gravel lane

    [chorus]
C		  	           G		          D          Em
We don’t need to go      Till you’re ready to go
I don’t need to know     Till you want me to know
Let me sing you a song So you know where I’ll stand
C					                         
(lots of nonchordtones in the melody)
With my hand in your hand


Em
Em C
Em C G/B


    [verse2]
Oh my love sheath to unbind
So many knotted endings to unwind
A box full of letters A long time ago
A lifetime of love That you didn’t even know


    [chorus repeats]


Em				(noodling up top)
She’s sailing on
C  	     D
Sailing on

    [verse3]
A song and a story	        Upon land of prayer
The wind and the water 	The sun and the air
A day of redemption	        A day on the sand
A shell full of ash	                Let it fly from your hand

    [chorus repeats]


She’s sailing on
Sailing on


C      G/B    D/A............
