Here is my transcription of "Wonderous Stories" by YES.
This great song comes from the Album "Going for the One".
It has been transposed here 2 whole steps down and is now in the key of "C".
(It's hard to sing as high as Jon Anderson.)
It is originally written in the key of "E".
Good luck! - Antonius Roolaart - aroolaart@monmouth.com


	Wonderous Stories
(Words and Music by Jon Anderson)

G ~~~~  G~~~~  (play a high position chord here)

G
I awoke this morning
          C/G
Love laid me down by the river
G
Drifting I turned on up stream
Gm
Bound for my forgiver
       A#m				       F
In the giving of my eyes to see your face
A#m
Sound did silence me
           F
Leaving no trace
         C         F/C       C         F/C
I beg to leave, to hear your wonderous stories
C      F/C       C          F/C         Em
Beg to hear your won-derous stories 'LA AHA'


G
He spoke of lands not far
    C/G
Nor lands they were in his mind
G
Of fusion captured high
      Gm
Where reason captured his time
      A#m                             F
In no time at all he took me to the gate
   A#m
In haste I quickly checked the time
   F
If I was late
  C               F/C                 C  		F/C
I had to leave, to hear your wonderous stories
C      F/C           C      F/C           E#m7
Had to hear your won-derous sto-ries 'LA AHA, LA AHA'

C    G   Gm   A#m

F          A#m
Hearing
      F       C            F/C        C
	Hearing hearing your won-derous sto-ries
      C            F/C         C       F/C         Em
	Hearing your won-derous stor-ies




G                       C/G
It is no lie I see deep-ly into the future
G                          Gm
Imagine everything, you're close
                                   A#m
And were you there to stand so cau-tiously at first
            F
And then so high
      A#m                              F
As he spoke my spirit climbed into the sky
         C
I bid it to return
   F/C                     C		F/C
To hear your wonderous sto-ries
C             F/C             C           F/C
Return to hear your wonderous stories
    C                F/C            C         F/C
	Return to hear your wonderous stories
           C      Em
		LA AH LA AH AH AH
