Hi! I've been reading Elephant Talk (from the Web site) for some time, and
I have something to contribute. One of my friends in Lincoln, NE, worked
out the chords for "I Talk To The Wind"; the "fake sheet" is included in
the last part of this letter. (He also figured out "Cadence And Cascade",
but someone else got them to ET first!) When we play it, he plays piano and
sings, I play bass, and another guy does guitar, so we take liberty with
the arrangement. (King Crimson is a "standard" band that we play songs
from. Incidentally, "Red" sounds great with a Condor Guitar-Synth ... it
sure sound like it was part of the equipment used!)

"I Talk To The Wind" by King Crimson,
from _In The Court Of The Crimson King_ (McDonald / Sinfield)
E C G F#m B
Said the straight man to the late man, "Where have you been?"
E C G F#m B
"I've been here and I've been there, and I've been in between."
E Bm E Bm E Bm
I talk to the wind, my words are all carried away, I talk to the wind,
A Bm A Bm
The wind does not hear, the wind cannot hear.
E C G F#m B
I'm on the outside, looking inside, what do I see?
E C G F#m B
Much confusion, disillusion, all around me.
I talk to the wind ...
E C G F#m B
You don't posess me, don't impress me, just upset my mind,
E C G F#m B
Can't instruct me or conduct me, just use up my time.
I talk to the wind ...
Said the straight man to the late man, "Where have you been?"
"I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between."
