DESPERATE LAND C D Slippin’ into the black again Wonder where it all will end The yellow colour of the grass Why are you leaving such a mess G Em You leave your footprints in the sand Am D And wonder why there is no end to this deperate land G Em And it’s the different kind of view Am The kind you thought you always knew D That points out what you have to do C D Creepin’ out of your dark hole Darkness pouring from your soul And there’s something you should know It shines white light and turns to gold G Em You leave your footprints in the sand Am D And wonder why there is no end to this deperate land G Em And it’s the different kind of view Am The kind you thought you always knew D That points out what you have to do © Wil Opstals 04-06-2011

Snowsong (Nowhere I see your name) Em I am whispering under water Csus And I hear you sailor’s daughter Em I’ve been watching where the snow falls Csus I’ve been listening how the wind calls A9 Fmaj7 Nowhere I see your name Nowhere I hear your name Em If you see me near the rainbow Csus If you see me when the sky snows Em I am trying to catch the letters Csus I am trying to know what matters A9 Fmaj7 Nowhere I see your name Nowhere I hear your name Em Csus 2x neurien 15-01-2013 © Wil Opstals

UNANSWERED Em I remember, when I was just a little kid A My father was walking far infront of me Em Going so fast I couldn’t keep up with him A I got lost and even then I couldn’t see C G What was going on in his mind D A Is so far away from me C G All the answers I’d hope to find D A Wouldn’t find their way to me Em A The problem is still there Still asking the same things Em A Still don’t know what’s true or fair Answers don’t mean a thing Em A The problem is still there But I think it’s only fair Em A You have to solve your own And don’t leave anything C G What is going on in his mind D A Is so far away from me C G All the answers I’d hope to find D A Wouldn’t find their way to me 24-2-08 © wil opstals

The water’s edge C G Just before the first step I took today I tried to find the sun, but it wasn’t there Just before I opened my eyes I tried to breath, but there was no air I hold the straw in my hand that cuts in my fingers, some blood to share The day has started without me, the dream goes on I wasn’t there C G Bm I couldn’t share Am D I know where to get what I need Am D I know where to get what I want Am C D It’s never been hard for me to do C G C G C G It’s a lot like starting something new You have to start all over again The purple heather, the grey mare I have to learn to care Am D I know where to get what I need Am D I know where to get what I want Am D I know where to get what I need Am D I know where to get what I want Am C D It’s never been hard for me to do 2x 10-09-11 wil opstals ©

GONNA TRY OUT LOVE I see you lying in the sand I should know better, than to take your hand The sun has almost gone away Boats on the horizon, fade to grey Oh,oh,oh Oh, the sleepless nights I’ve had As it turned out, it wasn’t half that bad All this love’s gone to my head Let it happen, if it hasn’t happened, yet Gonna try out love, this time Gonna try, my love Sleep tonight, hold me tight and I’ll be in your dreams tonight © 31 maart 1994 Wil Opstals

Moody 02:49
MOODY Slowly, I will wake up And see the day that lies before me Lonesome as ever I’ll be I will stay what lies behind me No-one sees me Will never hurt me Never leave me Never scar me Deep down I feel so good I dream away into paradise Moody, show what I feel I dream away into paradise No-one sees me… © Wil Opstals
