SISTER MOON - Sting

This was created with sincere thanks to Claudio. I couldn't have worked this out!
In some parts of the world they use Do re me fa so.... rather than     ... so
I don't think anybody understood what he had contributed.
Have a look for Sister Moon Sting on YouTube to hear this in it's full glory.
To play this at the correct pitch you need a capo on the 2nd fret, but I can't
sing as high as Sting,
so this is more comfortable for me, particularly when he goes up an octave at the ends 
that
gorgeous sax fades in.
I've tried to capture some of the sax solos for the guitar, but you need to listen to 
original
to get the timing right.
The backing is really subtle, so you have to be very soft and smooth on the guitar.
 to  is just a matter of turning the finger on the 2nd fret into a barre on the
fret. Very easy!
I haven't tried to transcribe the sax at the end. Too hard.
Instead I've added that mysterious spread chord followed by the plucked harmonic on the 
and  strings
with the little finger just touching them gently above the fifth fret. (Pluck them quite 
back towards the bridge)
May take practice to get a nice high ring.

Enjoy as much as I have!

 Sister moon - will be my guide
+9                      +9     
 In your blue blue shadows - I would hide

+9            +9       
 All good people - asleep tonight
+9              +9             
 I'm all by myself -  in your silver light

                     +                 
I would gaze - at your face - the whole night through

I'd Go out of my  mind, but for you

I'd Go out of my  mind, but for you

 Lying in -   a mother's arms

 The primal root -  of a woman's charms

+9                      +9            
I'm a stranger to the sun - My eyes are too weak
+9                  +9                     
  How cold is a heart - When it's warmth that he seeks?

                +                         
You watch - every night, - you don't care what I Do
                     +9   
I'd Go out of my  mind, but for you
                     +9   
I'd Go out of my  mind, but for you

   My mistress' eyes - are nothing like the sun
   My hunger for her - explains everything I've done

To howl at the moon - the whole night through
And they really don't care if I Do

I'd Go out of my  mind, but for you
