Been Alone so Long / Chris Judge Smith, sang by Peter Hammill
-------------------------------------------------------------

>From "Nadir's Big Change" and "The Love Songs" (maybe Democrazy by Smith?)

A great song. Most of the chord are correct, but the solo sax should be 
researched some more, it's a bit obscure to me, but maybe I'l find it, or 
better: one of my better-playing friends would find it for me.
Generaly: There is a basic chord sequence in every verse, which is a bit
longer on the 3rd verse. There is also a second sequence in the sax solo.
Some of the lyrics typed here were based on Guido Hogan's TEX File - Thanx!
If I'll have the time I'll tab the complete solo sax - for guitar... Yuck!

{Sax solo again. Repeat the sax solo chords, then again repeat the chord
sequence of a verse - with the sax playing, and end with the solo chords once 
more.}

Have fun! (A rather jolly song about a painful subject, but still enjoyable!)
