Play Me by Neil Diamond - Guitar Chords

<< Back to Neil Diamond Song List
Version 1 Version 2
            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.


[Verse 1]
 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

[Chorus]
 G                A 
You are the sun, I am the moon,
 G/B                A7             D 
You are the words, I am the tune, play me.

[Verse 2]
 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.

[Chorus]
 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 
She was morning and I was night time.
                                     G 
I one day woke up to find her lyin' beside my bed.

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.

[Chorus]
 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.
