CHIDING MOON
(capo 10th fret)
Avoid the high E string when playing the G chords in the intro
and the beginning of each line of the verses.
I actually do not fret the note unless it needs to be played,
because I do hear it played open at certain points in the song.
The only "tricky" part to the song is to know when to fret the
high E string at the "3rd"(13th) fret. It is intermittent throughout the song.
But will flow relative to the chord being played at that time.
Just listen to the song for the inflections.
INTRO
G G/B Am
VERSE 1
G G/B C D
She goes gently through your consciencence every night
G G/B C D
Finding crumbs of doubt and sweeping them from sight
CHORUS
Em
Can you see her
C C/B Am
She's in the room
Am/B Am D
Up above you like
G
A chiding moon
BREAK
G G/B Am
G G/B Am
VERSE 2
G G/B C D
And you think you decide the paths your life will take
G G/B C D
But she is pushing you to where she thinks it's safe
Chorus
Em
Can you see her
C C/B Am
She's in the room
Am/B Am D
Up above you like
G
A chiding moon
