|-----THE-WATCHER-----|
Song: The Watcher
Written & Performed: The Tea Party
Album: Seven Circles (2004)
Tabbed by: Taimur S.
Hi all,
This is a fantastic song that I can't believe I had not heard until 2011. It's a shame
for The Tea Party who, while not exactly my cup of tea musically, are a very talented band.
I had a look around to see if anyone had tabbed this and couldn't find anything so I've
put down the chords here for now, while I work out the lead guitar bits. The Tea Party
often use unconventional tuning so feel free to refine the standard tuning
progression I've used here.
Intro:
F, Dm, Bb
F Dm
I'm the unseen
Bb F
I'm disbelief...I'm undone
F Dm
You are a dream
Bb F
You are desire...You're the one
Dm Bb
If you show me what I'm missing
Dm Bb
If you tell me I would listen to you
Dm Bb
Guide me through the night
Bb F (root note here seems to change, not sure)
And please...watch over me
Bb F (root note changes here too)
And please...watch over me
Bb Dm
And please...watch over me
C F
Because I can't carry on...without you
F Dm
These are the days
Bb F
When everything's changed...look around
F Dm
Dancing I fall
Bb F
I fall through these cracks that surround
Dm Bb
If you show me what I'm missing
Dm Bb
If you tell me I would listen to you
Dm Bb
Guide me through the night
Bb F
And please...watch over me
Bb F
And please...watch over me
Bb
And please...watch over
D# Bb
I'm burning like a fire without end
D# Bb
As I'm turning into storm clouds twisting in the wind
D# D#
I surrender everything...remember everything
[Solo Chords: Bb, Bb, Dm, Dm]
Bb F
And please...watch over me
Bb F
And please...watch over me
Bb F
And please...watch over me
Bb Dm
Now please...watch over me
Dm
Because I've fallen down
C
And I can't carry on
C F
No I won't carry on...without you
That's it. I encourage others to improve on this and hopefully I'll fill in the lead
guitar bits soon.
