Hi greg & fellow COWPIE subscribers.
	I cannot remember when or whom but someone requested songs by Kris
Kristofferson.  Back in my earlier years I had learned a pile from about
three different albums. I took some time this Easter weekend & typed just 7
of them in to the computer (I'm not that fast :)) 

Silver (The Hunger)
Kris Kristofferson
>From the LP.. Who's To bless & who's to Blame


A
Silver was a rambler with a wicked reputation
 E                         D                A 
Music was his magic & his madness rolled in one

Said he'd charmed the fairest hearts of this world's fairest maidens
 E                           D             A
Slick as silver mercury & slippery as the sun

Winding like a river thru the thirsty world of strangers
  E                        E              A
Carvin out a legend in a dream forsaken land

Silver took his pleasures just as freely as he gave them
 E                                   D                 A
Hungry eyes wern't quick enough for Silver's flashin' hand
     D                            A   
Then once upon escaping from the world of silk & shadows
  Bm                           F#m 
Sudden growin sicker off the secrets and the shame
      Bm             D                 E 
He stumbled on to something green & beckoned like a candle
  A                                       A
Never lookin back he surrendered to the flame


               G 
Cho..	Because hunger is the surface of a darkened pool of sadness
       D                           G
	Silver's a reflection of a people deep below

	And mystery & magic are the Holy Faults of madness
        D                                       Em    A
	Sleepin as the exctassy slumbers in your soul



Silver moved instinctively within her soft defences
Soon unfolding mysteries he'd never seen before
Naked need & ancient need she slipped inside his senses
Silver took it as easy as the closin' of a door
Soon he'd touch the secret fish he'd hidden with her sorrow
Darken than her raven hair & deeper than her eyes
There to drive to lead her thru the sunlight from the shadows
Following the line between her laughter & her lies
But Silver left his magic with a legend he'd abandoned
Love had stripped him naked of illusions & it's charm
And one long nighter changed his mind to be kinder to the stranger
Morning found him movin' in the golden stranger's arms


Cho..


Silver stared in silence at the tangled scene before him
Time was burning frozen in the ocean of his eyes
Sadly turnin' backward to the world that he'd forsaken
He donned the shinging mantle of deceptioned & disguise
Slowly with the patience born of silent desperation
Silver worked his way into the darkness of his mind
Weavin' thru her consience like a chance she might have taken
Sadder than the shadows of a love she'll never find
And Silver's spell was stronger than the softly smiling stranger
Who's star was burning smaller in the naked light of day
Silver took her hand again a wiser man but sadder
Ready for the stranger who'd steal her love away


Cho..


mmm  mmm  mmm
