Dave Carter And Tracy Grammer - Disappearing Man
## NOTE: ~ = walk-down from  Cto  Am##
  Am         C                 G      C~       Am  
All rise, behold the famous disappearing man
Who comes in Ccrimson robes and Gleaves in yellow DmragsAm  
Hear Cnow his Gancient call to Amunion
And the Dmfurious comAmmunion of the Gmaiden and the Dstag
In the Amdark, in the Gdawn, with your Dmwedding dress in Ftatters
You reAmveal the yearning Cdesert in the Fcountry of your E7skin
How you Amache for the Gfawn, and he Dsays it doesn't Fmatter
But it Dmdoes and he's Cgone, and you Bmknow that he E7won't be back aAmgain
              C                 G        C~       Am  
Long now, he's borne his heavy armour resting only
In his Csorrows and his Gnoble-nosed reDmgretsAm  
SunClight, some Gmomentary Amsolace
And he'll Dmride off gay and Amlawless as the Gmoment that you Dmet
So the Amnight comes and Ggoes, and there's Dmno one there to Fnurture
But yourAmself and you Cknow that you've Fnothing left to E7lose
Will you Amstand in the Groad waiting Dfor another Fsearcher
Will you Dmweep soft and Clow in the Bmvoice that your E7mother used to Amuse
INSTRUMENTAL:   C    G    D    Am    C    Dm    F    Am    G    D    F    Dm    C    Bm    E7  Am  
              C                      G      C~      Am  
Springtime the swain came green and hero like a friendly gypsy 
CStorm on tender Glilies, hale and DmblazeAm  
Late Cfall, the Gboatman rowed you Amgrimly
Down a Dmcanyon dark and Amempty, in a Gstale and dreary Dhaze
At the Amend of the Cyear, when the Dmcliffs rise up beFhind you
And the Amstream runs in Gcircles from the Fchasm to the E7core
And the Amsun comes in Gtears, 'cause the Dgardener did not Ffind you
Will you Dmbloom bright and Cfierce, will you Bmknow you don't E7need him anyAmmore
INSTRUMENTAL:   C    G   C~   Am    C    G    Dm    Am    C    G    Am    Dm    Am    G  D  
At the Amend of the Cyear, when the Dmcliffs rise up beFhind you
And the Amstream runs in Gcircles from the Fchasm to the E7core
And the Amsun comes in Gtears, 'cause the Dgardener did not Ffind you
Will you Dmbloom bright and Cfierce, will you Bmknow you don't E7need him anyAmmore

Dave Carter And Tracy Grammer - Disappearing Man

C Am

## NOTE: ~ = walk-down from to ##

Am C G C Am

All rise, behold the famous disappearing man

C G Dm Am

Who comes in crimson robes and leaves in yellow rags

C G Am

Hear now his ancient call to union

Dm Am G D

And the furious communion of the maiden and the stag

Am G Dm F

In the dark, in the dawn, with your wedding dress in tatters

Am C F E7

You reveal the yearning desert in the country of your skin

Am G D F

How you ache for the fawn, and he says it doesn't matter

Dm C Bm E7 Am

But it does and he's gone, and you know that he won't be back again

C G C Am

Long now, he's borne his heavy armour resting only

C G Dm Am

In his sorrows and his noble-nosed regrets

C G Am

Sunlight, some momentary solace

Dm Am G D

And he'll ride off gay and lawless as the moment that you met

Am G Dm F

So the night comes and goes, and there's no one there to nurture

Am C F E7

But yourself and you know that you've nothing left to lose

Am G D F

Will you stand in the road waiting for another searcher

Dm C Bm E7 Am

Will you weep soft and low in the voice that your mother used to use

C G D Am C Dm F Am G D F Dm C Bm E7 Am

INSTRUMENTAL:

C G C Am

Springtime the swain came green and hero like a friendly gypsy

C G Dm Am

Storm on tender lilies, hale and blaze

C G Am

Late fall, the boatman rowed you grimly

Dm Am G D

Down a canyon dark and empty, in a stale and dreary haze

Am C Dm F

At the end of the year, when the cliffs rise up behind you

Am G F E7

And the stream runs in circles from the chasm to the core

Am G D F

And the sun comes in tears, 'cause the gardener did not find you

Dm C Bm E7 Am

Will you bloom bright and fierce, will you know you don't need him anymore

C G C Am C G Dm Am C G Am Dm Am G D

INSTRUMENTAL: ~

Am C Dm F

At the end of the year, when the cliffs rise up behind you

Am G F E7

And the stream runs in circles from the chasm to the core

Am G D F

And the sun comes in tears, 'cause the gardener did not find you

Dm C Bm E7 Am

Will you bloom bright and fierce, will you know you don't need him anymore
