"Cryin' To Be Heard"
(Dave Mason)
Intro:
(saxes, bass, and organ over verse chord progression)
Chorus:
Somebody's cryin' to be heard
And there's also someone who hears every word
Verse 1:
Sail across the ocean with your back against the wind
Listening to nothing save the calling of a bird
And when the rain begins to fall, don't you start to curse
It may be just the tears of someone that you never heard
repeat chorus
Verse 2:
Reflected in the water is a face that you don't know
And isn't it surprising when you find out it's your own?
And so you try to find out whether it is friend or foe
And what it wants to know, and what it wants to know
repeat chorus
Verse 3:
Well, you're wrapped up in your little world and no one can get in
You sit and think of everything, then you wonder where you've been
You put the blame on someone that you've hardly ever known
And then you realize too late the blame was all your own
repeat chorus
[repeat verse 1, call-and-response]:
Sail across the ocean with your back against the wind
(sail across the ocean with your back against the wind)
Listening to nothing save the calling of a bird
(listening to nothing save the calling of a bird)
And when the rain begins to fall, don't you start to curse
(and when the rain begins to fall don't you start
to curse)
It may be just the tears of someone that you never heard
(it may be just the tears of someone that you
never heard)
repeat chorus
Coda:
(long jam on D to end)
-- another ace 60's tab from Andrew Rogers
