"Anastasia's Eyes" - Dan Fogelberg 1990  

This is a pretty simple song, chordwise, but you can throw in a lot of 
sustained chords and stuff.  The chords are placed fairly close to where I 
think they should go, but the vocal phrasing is pretty loose in this song.

I play this with a capo on the first fret...

E                     A  
There's thorns in the cactus tree

                      E
There's thorns on the rose
 
                      A                       
There's thorns in the heart of me

            E
That nobody knows

                 G#m
They tear at the flesh until

                   A
The tears start to rise

                E  
They form in my heart

             A                 E
But they fall from Anastasia's eyes

I was lost in the wilderness
Without courage or hope
I was setting my signal fires
And watching the smoke
When out of the smoke appeared
The sweetest surprise
I knew I'd been found
When first I looked into Anastasia's eyes

There's thorns in the cactus tree
There's thorns on the rose
There's thorns in the heart of me
That nobody knows
But finally I've found out where
My salvation lies
It lies in the love that lives in Anastasia's eyes
It lies in the love that lives in Anastasia's eyes
