so far from me

ADDITIONAL LYRICS

[verse 2]
Does it now seem worth all the color of skies
To see the earth through painted eyes
To look through panes of shaded glass
See the stains of winter's grass (refrain)

[verse 3]
Can you now return to from where you came
Try to burn your changing name
Or with silver spoons and colored light
Will you worship moons in winter's night (refrain)

The toughest thing about learning this song is in making it sound
fluid all the way through, but once mastered, it is a great addition
to one's repertoire. A smooth transition from end of refrain back to
into takes a bit of work too, but it's more a matter of timing than
difficult fingerings, etc. If anyone has corrections, additions, or
comment, by all means let me know. E.H.
