the song is sick :o
i wanted to figure this one out so i thought i'd share...hope you enjoy..see below
Here are the lyrics with chords...hope this helps
Intro Dm7 --> C (play the C non barred and you are golden)
Dm7
The sea is so wide
Am7
And the boat is so small
Gm7
And the sun burns my skin
Dm7 C-->Dm7
In this Liquid Time
Dm7
Time is a treasure here
Am7
Cause' it flows in every direction
Gm7
I know you understand
Dm7
But might not recognize
Am7 Gm7 Dm7 --> C --> Dm7
...that it's easier to look at things this way
Dm7 Am7 Gm7
And though i know it was a lie that got me here
The stars at night are moving
G7
In a heavenly dance
Bd F
I can taste the wind, smell the rain, see the sand
C
...it's not so far away
Chorus
G>A>Bb F
Oh, ooooooooh sad, sad one
C
I feel you growing dim
Dm7
And the clouds disperse around me
Am7
And I know these dreams are real
Gm7 Dm7
Try to recognize Liquid Time
Am7>Gm7>Dm7
Try to recognize Liquid Time
First Solo
Repeat chorus after solo
End this chorus "hanging" on the Gm7, the take it up to the Bd arpeggio and "space" it out
"I know you're watching me"
"I see you" etc
Long spacey solo with whammy
The chords should be played like this:
Dm7 can be played like a regular barre chord at the 5th fret and also sounds cool when you play like listed below played arpeggio during Intro
E----O----
B----6----
G----5----
D----7----
A----x-----
E----x-----
Am7
E----x----
B----5----
G----5----
D----5----
A----x-----
E----5-----
Gm7
E----x----
B----3----
G----3----
D----3----
A----x-----
E----3-----
The C is cool played like this ( during intro and after he says "liquid time"):
E----x----
B----8----
G----9----
D----10----
A----x-----
E----x-----
and the "space out" Bd i'm referring to should be played arpeggio like:
E----o----
B----6----
G----7----
D----8----
A----x-----
E----x-----
all other chords referred to are regular barre
I'm gonna be honest, this confused the hell out of me ???

C
(seeeeee)
(I see that you're watching me)
(floating)
the rest of the jam is over C
yeah see where he has a C? thats what i was referring too as a Am7 (same with the Bb i refer to as Gm7).. so either way the diff is negligible. however i am going off my memory of how i saw him play this tune at the electric factory. trey often plays his M7's with his Ring and middle finger ... i caught this as my pop showed me that chord shape as a "cheat' years ago..either way its all good in the hood..
wasnt aware of this site ill have to check er out..
