Colonel Forbin
 By Phish Tab by Richard Davis 
Intro = G# Adim 4x

Verse =
   	G#            C#m7                         F#m7
             Colonel   Forbin stared up at the mountain
 	B
	And wiped away the beads of sweat
	E
	That glistened on his brow
	F#m7                                          G9 C#6
	His tired feet were buried in the   quagmire
	G#
	And his bloodshot eyes were all that lay between him
	A#                                G#
	and fullfillment of his vow 

	G#    C#m7                                                F#m7
	And he felt his fingers wrap around the knotted root
	B
	and he pulled his body upwards
	E
	to a sea green mossy boulder
	F#m7                                                   G9 C#6
	and he dragged his weary carcass up the mountain
	F#m7            	G
	And he climb so slowly
	F#m7		G
	and he climb so slowly
	A   F   F#m7   A
	Ahead-----à
	A   F   F#m7   A
              Ahead-----à


	                    C#7
	Suddenly he heard the crack of thunder
	D            		G
	And the rocks began to crumble overhead
	A			C#7
	and tumbled down the mountain to the
	D			     G
	dismal swampthat lay beneath the jagged cliffs
	A			C#7
	through which his path had led
	D			      G
	and the earth began to quake before his eyes
	A				C#m7
	and the mighty mountain change before his eyes
	D				G
	and he stood admist a sea of dust and rocks and stones
	A			C#m7
	cascading down the mountain
	D				G
	and a thousand birds were heading fo the sky

	A			Bm7
	and the scared creed will be yours
	D			G
	and if you wait until tomorrow
	F#m7
	the sacred creed will be yours
	G
	to devour
	F#m7
	yours
	G
	to seize
	A    F   F#m7  A
	and to obey----à
	A    F   F#m7  A
	obey------------à


Then you repeat the whole song with different lyrics.
