Melanie Safka - Arrow
## NOTE 1: Guitar detuned 1 semitone to match original recording ##
## NOTE 2: C/G = 332010
INTRO:   Dm    F     G  C  
I wish I could DmfalFl in Glove
Though it C/Gonly leads to G6trouble, oh I Fknow it does
Still I'd Dmfool myself and gladly just to Gfeel I was
In AmlovGe, in C/Glove
I wish I could Dmfeel my Fheartbeat Grise
And C/Ggaze into some G6gentle warm exFcited eyes
And Dmgive myself as truly as an Garrow flies
In AmwindGless C/Gskies
CHORUS:
Oh, I reG6member Amyou in the DTV Glight
Holding you Fclose to C/Gme where we Glay
And now I wish I Amknew some of those Dsofter Gnights
Whispering FquietC/Gly, feeling you Fturn to Gme
Only last Dmnight in the Fwinter Gdark
I C/Gdreamed of how you G6loved in all your Finnocence
And I've Dmnever known a softer warmer Gfeeling since
Or a AmtruGer C/Gheart
Maybe these Dmdreams are Fleading Gme
Maybe C/Glove is not as G6gentle as my Fmemory
Maybe Dmtime and wishful half-remembered Gfantasies
Are the AmgreaGtest C/Gpart
CHORUS:
I reG6member Amyou in the DTV Glight
Holding you Fclose to C/Gme where we Glay
And now I wish I Amknew some of those Dsofter Gnights
Whispering FquietC/Gly, feeling you Fturn to Gme
I Wish I could Dmfeel my Fheartbeat Grise
And C/Ggaze into some G6gentle warm exFcited eyes
And Dmgive myself as truly as an Garrow flies
In AmwindGless C/Gskies
I wish I could DmfalFl in Glove
Though it C/Gonly leads to G6trouble, oh I Fknow it does
Still I'd Dmfool myself and gladly just to Gfeel I was
In AmlovGe, in C/Glove
I wish I could DmfalFl in Glove
