Song: Please Stand By
  Artist: Skypark
  Album: Siani- Another Night With the Frogs
  Chorded by Greg Oden (nedogerg@hotmail.com)

This is a really pretty song, but, like all pretty songs, should be done
in your own style as much as in the style of the artist.This is my 
interpretation of this song, and while I'm sure Joey, Tyrone, and the 
gang would be horrified to hear me play it, but I like it.

intro: G G/C  G/C Em
     G    C   G    C     G
Ah, she, she knows Your love,
          Em
but she's not letting go.
    G      C  G      C  G
and, she, she tries to hide
        Em
like a blood stain in snow.
         Am      B C                
and she flies, 
           Am            B           C           Am B C
with a sheepish grin and star-crossed eyes. 
       D--------------------------------------
and she tells You to please stand by.
    G    C   G      C    G 
And You, You spill and spend
        Em
but She won't turn around.
    G      C    G      C   G    
You trade, Your crown, for nails
       Em   
hoping she'll hear the sound 
      Am    B C   
as You cry, 
      Am                  B     C      Am B  C 
with a mothers love and a lovers sigh.
       D-------------------------------------           
and she tells You to please stand by.

Note: you can do a lot of neat things with this song by adding 
walk downs and rhythm changes. the walk up from Am B and C sound 
really good with an off-beat rest in it. I like to do a Bob Dylan 
harmonica part in the break like Joey does, but I can't tab it out.

let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works 
and glorify your father in heaven.
