Book of Saturday

I have divided the song by its various motifs and the roman numerals
correspond with these bits NOTE: This is the BASIC structure of the song,
feel free to make variations on the basic patterns. I have divided the
song up into bits that correspond with the roman numerals in the lyrics
here-in. (12)=harmonic

              I
If I only could deceive you
              
Forgetting the game
              I
Every time I try to leave you
              
You laugh just the same
              II
'Cause my wheels never touch the road

And the jumble of lies we told

Just returns to my back to weigh me down...
              I
We lay cards upon the table

The backs of our hands
              I
And I swear I like your people

The boys in the band
              III
Reminiscences gone astray

Coming back to enjoy the fray

In a tangle of night and daylight sounds...

               VII
All completeness in the morning

Asleep on your side

I'll be waking up the crewmen

Banana-boat ride

She responds like a limousine

Brought alive on the silent screen

To the shuddering breath of yesterday...
                I
There's the succour of the needy

Incredible scenes

I'll believe you in the future

Your life and death dreams
                VIII
As the cavalry of despair

Takes a stand in the lady's hair

For the favour of making sweet sixteen...

You make my life and times

A book of bluesy Saturdays

And I have to chose...

Here it is! I hope I tabbed everything out correctly, because, as you can
see there is quite a bit to tab out.
