Vulnerability underscored by grit. Strength sealed by fire. Mood driven by melody. Reconciliation that turns to inspiration. This is the territory of Sophie B. Hawkins’ remarkable sixth album, which is at once the most directly personal, musically transporting and defiantly raw work yet from the Grammy nominated singer/songwriter.
Since her instantaneous 1992 breakthrough with the indelible hit single “Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover” and her acclaimed debut album Tongues and Tails

as i lay me down by sophie b. hawkins from the album *whaler*
in the recorded song, all these chords are synthed to bizarre 7th, 9th, 39th and 647th chords. the chords used here are not dead on by any means, but are about as close as you can get on a guitar without raiding the chord books. the relative pitch is right, its just the absolute pitch that may be off a little.
GDCDEmC it felt like springtime on this february morning GDGD in the courtyard birds were singing your praise CDEmC i'm still recalling things you said to make me feel GD alright, i carry them with me today now
chorus:
GDCDGDC as i lay me down to sleep, yes i pray, that you will hold me dear DGDCDG though i'm far away, i whisper your name, into the sky DCD and i will wake up happy
GDCDEmC i wonder why -- i feel so high, while i'm not above my sorrow GDG heavy hearted 'til you call my name DCDEm and it sounds like churchbells or the whistle of a train CGD on a summer evening I want to meet you there, i'm barely breathing...
<< chorus x2 >>
GDCDG it's not too near for me, like a flower i need the rain DCDG though it's not real to me, every season has its change DC and i will see you when the sun comes out again
<< chorus x2 >>
