Sweet madam blue   Styx

Flash back time....  OK - I said it before but I need to repeat
this disclaimer - for those of you who want exact notes/timing -
get the recording.  I learned this puppy off an 8-trk tape ~15? years
ago.  I play the intro every once in a while when I'm fooling
around, and this is how I remember it.  I'm not even sure what the
name is.... the request was for _Madam Blue_, but then during 
correspondance wrote (sweet) Madam Blue...   Anyways this is my
recollection:


Sweet Madam Blue (STYX)
(as per d.badermans hazy memory....)

Seems like I jump to 3/4 time for the next line - this is probably
not correct, so if you have a source, listen to it....

Weird notations:
 ss -> slow strum 
 ^  -> down strum
 V  -> up strum

My brain hurts -someone else posted the following, and as I can't remember the
rest of the song, I will just include it.  NOTE: I am sorry I have no idea who
submitted the following - it was forwarded to me without credits...


It's a variation on Bm:

-----------2---------------0---------------0------------------------------
---------3---3-----------3---3-----------3---3-----------3----------------
-------4-------4-------4-------4-------4-------4-------4---------3--------
-----4-----------4---4-----------4---4-----------4---4---------2----------
---2---------------0-----------------------------------------4------------
-----------------------------------3---------------2-------2--------------

Repeat 1000 times while crooning softly. The power chord part is
fairly easy to figure out: all Bm, A, G, D, and E
