Purple Shadows

Written by Seasick Steve

	  		Okay so I gave this a listen the other day and loads of people requested the tab and  
chords. I couldn't find any lyrics so I also had to try and work them out any corrections  
are appreciated! 

There are various hammer ons in the song most of which I will cover but the song is  
fairly straight forward listen and play along to the song to get the right timing you should  
pick it up quite easily. 

The chords you will need to know are C major, G major, E minor A minor,        F major 

I don't know the intro but the part before he plays C is 

 Fig 1 



Then the song essentially goes like this: 


Fig1         C 
Them purple shadows fall across 

          Em 
And they soften everything they touch 

          F          G        Am     G 
And they give me-e a place to hide 

Fig1    C 
And the moonlight all around 

                Em 
Surely going to wash these troubles down 

    F              G               Am     G 
And cool the awful burning-ness of love 

                F 
Talkin bout the burning-ness 

         G                    Am 
Yeah the burning-ness, oh the burning-ness 

         F 
Yeah the burning-ness 

                            G               C       G 
We will cool down the awful burning-ness of love 


Then it's just the same for the rest of the song apart from the very last part where he  
swaps the C for an E minor then goes back to how it's played in the rest like this: 

                            G               Em   F 
We will cool down the awful burning-ness of love ooooh ooooh 

                            G               C       G 
We will cool down the awful burning-ness of love 

Here are the rest of the lyrics: 

I hear your echo on the run 
And them tears will start to come 
They will dry me u-up and I?ll simply blow away 

But while I'm blowin in the wind 
Surely gonna feel again your soft skin 
And remember-er the awful burning-ness of love 
Talkin bout the burning-ness 
Yeah the burning-ness, oh the burning-ness 
Yeah the burning-ness 
We will cool down the awful burning-ness of love 

And the moonlight all around 
Surely going to wash these troubles down 
And cool the awful burning-ness of love 
Talkin bout the burning-ness 
Yeah the burning-ness, oh the burning-ness 
Yeah the burning-ness 
We will cool down the awful burning-ness of love 

Enjoy!
