                              "Tapioca Tundra"

                             (Michael Nesmith)

  

  Intro (slow):

  

  	A        A+      F#m      Adim

  	/ / / /  / / / /  / / / /  / / / /

  	         One two  three four  five

  

  	Bm       E        Bm       E

  	/ / / /  / / / /  / / / /  / / / /

  	  Four   three    two one   zero

  

  	Bm       F        Dm       A

  	/ / / /  / / / /  / / / /  /

  

  	[speed up; 2-bar drum fill]

  

  	A

  	/ / / /  / / / /

  

  Verse 1:

  

  	 A                    A+ [1,5: A+/C#]

  	Reasoned verse, some prose or rhymes

  	F#m                Adim

  	Lose themselves in other times

  	     Bm                 E

  	And waiting hopes cast silent spells

  	      Bm               E

  	That speak in crowded clues

  	   Bm           F

  	It cannot be a part of me

  	    Dm                A

  	For now it's part of you

  

  Verse 2:

  

  	Careful plays on fields that seem to

  	Vanish when they're in between

  	And softly as I walk away

  	In freshly tattered shoes

  	It cannot be a part of me

  	For now it's part of you

  

  Bridge:

  

  	           C#

  	[2: Well] Sunshine, ragtime

  	 F#m

  	Blowing in the breeze

  	 B

  	Midnight, looks right

  	 E7               E+

  	Standing more at ease

  

  Verse 3:

  

  	Silhouettes and figures stay

  	Close to what we had to say

  	And one more time a faded dream

  	Is saddened by the news

  	It cannot be a part of me

  	For now it's part of you
