"Play Me" by Neil Diamond

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....

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

[Instrumental; Finger picking through these chords....number in () is number
 of bars for that chord.]

                                    [G]
I one day woke up to find her lyin' beside my bed.
                     [D]
I softly said, "Come take me."
    [D]
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.
[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.
