[ Предположительная тональность: G ] I am fairly sure I've got the chord shapes right or this one..... however, the names are a different story altogether. .....if someone could correct the mistakes I may have made in the names I'd appreciate it Also, I'm leaving the right hand fingering for the player to work out for him/herself....its fairly easy...basically arpeggio style (with some strumming) and picked up easily by listening to the song .....thanks to Howard Wright for the tuning ----------------------------------- MARCIE by Joni Mitchell from Song to a Seagull ----------------------------------- Tuning: (from low to high) D G D G B D.......open G there are two distinct chord progressions used in this song which I call Patterns 1 & 2. Pattern 1: Gm7 A7 Marcie in the quilt of flowers C6add2 G Cadd2 G Steps inside a candy store Gm7 A7 Reds are sweet and greens are sour C6add2 G Cadd2 G G Cadd2 G Still no letter at her door Eb D So she'll wash her flower curtains C B Hang them in the wind to dry Gm7 A7 Dust her tables with his shirt and C6add2 G Cadd2 G G Cadd2 G wave another day goodbye G Cadd2 G G Cadd2 G ........repeat Pattern 1 for the following : Marcie's faucet needs a plumber Marcie's sorrow needs a man Red is autumn, green is summer Greens are turning and the sand All along the ocean beaches stares up empty at the sky Marcie buys a bag of peaches stops a postman passing by Pattern 2 : G7M C (2 fr.) And summer goes, falls to the sidewalk like string and brown paper G7M Winter blows up from the river C (2 fr.) There's no one to to take her...... G (2 fr.) A7 C6add2 G Cadd2 G Gm7 A7 C6add2 G Cadd2 G to the sea .........use Pattern 1 for the following : Marcie dresses warm, its snowing takes a yellow cab uptown red is stop and green's for going Sees a show and rides back down Down along the Hudson River Past the shipyards in the cold still no letter's been delivered still the winter's days unfold .......and Pattern 2 for this : Like magazines fading in dusty grey attics and servers make a dream Dream back to summer and all he tells her Wait for me .......back to Pattern 1 for : Marcie leaves and doesn't tell us Where, why she moved away Red is angry, green is jealous that was all she had to say Someone thought they saw her Sunday window shopping in the rain Some heard she bought a one-way ticket and went west again CHORDS : DGDGBD DGDGBD DGDGBD DGDGBD x33030 x22022 x22010 x02010 Gm7 A7 C6/9 Cadd2 or C6add2 DGDGBD DGDGBD DGDGBD DGDGBD x8888x x77777 x55555 x44444 Eb D C B DGDGBD DGDGBD DGDGBD DGDGBD x44030 x55055 505430 000000 G7M C (2 fr.)
