Merle's Waltz

Kate Power ©1994/BMI
Album: Dancing In the Kitchen

This song came late at night by candlelight in a dose of wishful thinking mixed with a new interest in DADGAD tuning on my guitar - that I had been learning within the context of Celtic music - and takes to country music like a fish to water.

D                             G           A                      D
Won't you play that song that makes us fall in love again
G            D                        A
I need to hold a hand and let my heart go
D                              G    A                         D
It's been a year and ten, since I heard my name that way
G               D                            A                   D
Whisper of yesterdays and the sweet night ahead

                  G                             D                A                     D
         I don't know what makes a stranger of sweet love and time
                      G                    D                A
         But my soul knows the dangers of living out of rhyme

                     D             G            A                      D
So won't you play that song that makes us fall in love again
G            D                        A                 D
I need to hold a hand and let my heart go
D                              G    A                         D
It's been a year and ten, since I heard my name that way
G               D                             A                  D
Whisper of yesterdays and the sweet night ahead

                   G           D                  A               D
         It's so easy to dance to, no need to pretend
                 G                          D                A
         That life was made for lovin' one another until the end

                     D             G            A                      D
So won't you play that song that makes us fall in love again
G            D                        A                 D
I need to hold a hand and let my heart go
G            D                        A                 D
I need to hold a hand and let my heart go
