 WORDS

I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping 
Still my guitar gently weeps
I don't know why nobody told you how to unfold your love
I don't know how someone controlled you 
They bought and sold you.

I look at the world and I notice it's turning
While my guitar gently weeps
With every mistake we must surely be learning
Still my guitar gently weeps 
I don't know how you were diverted
You were perverted too
I don't know how you were inverted
No one alerted you.

I look from the wings at the play you are staging
While my guitar gently weeps
As I'm sitting here doing nothing but aging
Still my guitar gently weeps

I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
Look at you all...


Notes:
This is an acoustic version I found on the NET while searching 
after Georges death.I don't pretend it to be perfect by any means.
It is purely my interpretation and arrangement of what I thought
I heard in the song. This is also my first attempt at scripting Tab.
It could be a bit challenging for beginners, but should be no 
problem for experienced players. I would appreciate any and all 
comments directed to me at ecnerwal@pacbell.net.
Thank you George for altering my consciousness and changing my world.
