I’ll Comb The Tangles From Your Hair

Lyrics and Chords

INTRO ; Bmin9
Bmin9           A                                                                       Gmin

It’s so strange to think that love’s where this began

D

And where will it end?

Bmin9           A                                            Gmin

And after all I’m just an ordinary man

D

I can not pretend

C#min   Emin            G                           D

So killingly you smile, like a dare

C#min   Emin            G

I want to comb

Bmin7                                             Bmin6

The tangles from your hair

Bminaug5                                      Bmin7

Comb the tangles from your hair

Bmin7                                             Bmin6

I just want to comb the tangles from your hair

Bminaug5                                      Bmin7

Comb the tangles from your hair

Bmin9           A                                                                       Gmin

I watched your trembling shoulders in the church

D

Prayed for you

Bmin9           A                                                                       Gmin

And I wonder would they quail before my touch?

D

I’ll wait for you

C#min         Emin                   G

Your eyes, your lips, your legs..

D

The weeds you wear..

C#min   Emin            G

I want to comb

Bmin7                                             Bmin6

The tangles from your hair

Bminaug5                                      Bmin7

Comb the tangles from your hair

Bmin7                                             Bmin6

I just want to comb the tangles from your hair

Bminaug5                                      Bmin7

Comb the tangles from your hair

G           Gmin                                            D

But I can’t get the old hag off my back

G           Gmin                         Bmin

I’m slipping through the cracks

A

Slipping through the cracks

Bmin9           A                                                           Gmin

I watch you walking by beneath my window

D

My dark star

Bmin9           A                                                           Gmin

And I find that I can’t banish from my mind

D

Your light,

Gmin                   Emin           Gmin                   Emin

You are the sea to my dolphin dreams

Bmin7                                             Bmin6

And I’ll comb the tangles

Bminaug5                                      Bmin7

I’ll comb the tangles, the tangles from your hair

Bmin7                                             Bmin6

I just want to comb the tangles from your hair

Bminaug5                                      Bmin7

Comb the tangles from your hair

Bmin9           A                                                                       Gmin

It’s so strange to think that love’s where this began..

Lyrics

It’s so strange to think that love’s where this began
And where will it end?
And after all I’m just an ordinary man
I can not pretend
So killingly you smile, like a dare

I want to comb the tangles from your hair
Comb the tangles from your hair
I just want to comb the tangles from your hair
Comb the tangles from your hair

I watched your trembling shoulders in the church
Prayed for you
And I wonder would they quail before my touch?
I’ll wait for you
Your eyes, your lips, your legs..
The weeds you wear..

I want to comb the tangles from your hair
Comb the tangles from your hair
I just want to comb the tangles from your hair
Comb the tangles from your hair

I can’t get the old hag off my back
I’m slipping through the cracks
Slipping through the cracks

I watch you walking by beneath my window
My dark star
And I find that I can’t banish from my mind
Your light,
You are the sea to my dolphin dreams

I want to comb the tangles from your hair
Comb the tangles from your hair
I just want to comb the tangles from your hair
Comb the tangles from your hair

Alternate Tunings

( The F# in this tuning is low, so its best to use an A string guage and also a D string guage for where the G would be)
