Perfect Strangers

Deep Purple

Intro (by keyboard) Intro (continues with the band): Can you remember, remember my name as I flow through your life a thousand oceans I have flown ooh and riff_1 cold, cold spirits of ice. All my life I am the echo of your past I am returning, the echo of a point in time, distant faces shine a thousand warriors I have known and riff_1 laughing as the spirits appear all your life shadows of another day and if you hear me talking on the wind you've got to understand we must re- -main perfect strangers 4/4 5/4 :A5 : x3 4/4 5/4 4/4 I know I must remain inside this silent well of sorrow A strand of silver hanging through the sky touching more than you see the voice of ages in your mind oooh, is riff_1 aching with the death of the night o - oooh - -aww precious life your tears are lost in falling rain and if you hear me talking on the wind you've got to understand we must re- -main perfect strangers 4/4 5/4 :E5 : x3 4/4 5/4 4/4 4/4 5/4 :E5 : repeat till end ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well the 9/4 parts gave me a bit of a headace, so I chose to put a 5/4 measure there and keep the rest 4/4's. The accents in there come mostly at the 2nd half of each 1/4. (As one-AND-two-AND...) What to play on through, but I noticed that it's easier to keep track of where you are, if you count the riffs especially, when you are singing. :) riff_1 e---------------------------------------------------------------- B---------------------------------------------------------------- G---------------------------------------------------------------- D----7-----5-------------------------7-----5--------------------- A--------------7---------3---------------------7---------3------- E5-------------------3-5---5-3-5-^--------------------3-5---5-3-5-^...
