[E] [Am]
I wonder [E] what that day [G] was [Am] like for the savage.
Oh, I look up [G] and turn around [Am] for the high and fly.
Oh, glimpses [G] around [Am] of a silver wire.
I throw my keys [G] away, [Am] and I'm down.
[F] I'm sick of playing straight to [D] the [C]
[G] steel drum.
[F] I'm sick of playing straight to [D] the steel drum.
I'm sick of [G] playing straight to the steel drum.

I'm going on to [F]
[D]
[Am] dream about the sun.
My prayers have counted, but [F] there's nothing left to trust.
[D] Every day I dream [Am] about my sufferers.
I made the [G] current run, [Am] live wire.
But that's [G] a sentence [Am] on a water and fire.
[A] Now I [Em] know [Am] a sweet lie.
I made [A] them bones, and [Am] I'm a high and fly.
[F] So I'm straight blue, clear blue.
[G] Straight blue, play straight steel drum.
[F] Straight blue, clear [D] blue.
[G] Straight blue, clear blue.
[Am] I don't know what to do.
[F] I've got nowhere to go at all.
[Dm]
Oh, [D] I dream [Am] about my sufferers.
My prayers are just a price.
[F] There's a grand plan [D] I'm afraid to choose.
But every night I dream [Am] about my sufferers.

NotesBeta

To learn John Martyn - (Live, The Shaw Theatre, London, 31 March 1990) Sapphire chords, begin by getting comfortable with these sequence: Am, D, Am, F, Am, G, Am, F and D. A strategic approach would be to train at 49 BPM initially, and then accelerate to the song's tempo of 98. Align the capo with your vocal depth and chord choice, bearing in mind the song's original key: C Major.
