Notes about the song:

It seems to be in 6/8 (or 3/4, I guess) time

INTRO TAB: 
h means hammer on,  / means slide

                                          A

VERSES:

     A              E
On a distant shore, miles from land
G                                    D
Stands the ebony totem in ebony sand,
  A                  E
A dream in a mist of grey
B                A
On a far distant shore.


A                          E
The pebble, it stood alone
G                             D
And driftwood lies half buried
A                          E
Warm, shallow water sweeps shells
B              A
So the cockles shine.


A                      E
A bare, winding carcas stalk
G                              D
Shimmers as flies scoop up meat.
A
An empty way,
B          A
Dry Tears.


A                         E
Crisp flax squeaks.  Tall reeds
      G              D
Make a circle of grey 
     A
In a summer way, around man
B         A
 so don't drown


BRIDGE:

(This is the long section of strummed chords.  I'll count measures 
 in 6/8 in the following way:

  ------  ------ ------
  G       C      D      means a measure of G, one of C and one of D)


unusual chords used:
     Cadd9:  x32030


begin bridge:

  ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------
  Cadd9  C      Bb            Cadd9  C      Bb     F       Esus4      
  ------ ------ 
  E             


  ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ 
  C7            F          F# G             A      D      G         

  ------ ------ 
 (still G)


  This is then repeated, except that the second time I think that 
  the first chord is C7 instead of Cadd9.

CLOSING:

(Note, I am highly uncertain -even moreso than I am about the rest of this 
song- about the "accuracy" of the transcription here.  Correct me, please!)

unusual chords used: 

      I don't know what to call these things, but they're based on 
      the chord x02200 which I think is either A5 or Asus2.

      The chords and my (incorrect) names for them are:

           A:       x02220
           A5:      x02200
           A5addF#: x02202
           A5addG#: x02204

Begin closing:

A      A5addG#
I'm trying

A      A5addG#
I'm trying

A5addF# A5
To find you

A5addF# A5
To find you

A      A5addG#
I'm living

A      A5addG#
I'm giving

A5addF# A5
To find you

A5addF# A5
To find you

The next part I think uses only the A chord:

A
I'm living
I'm living
I'm trying
I'm giving
(Switch at this point to A5 and diddle with it for a while)

G#
Swan Lee got up at the runningford powwow and headed from the 
            B
fire to his waiting canoe.  
G#                                          B 
Juttering squaw untied the wigwam door, the chief blew 
           C#  
smokerings two by two 
 
G#
The land in silence stands
 
Swan Lee, his boat by a by the bank in the darkness loosened 
the rope from the creepers entwined
A feather from the wing of a wild young eagle pointed to the 
land where his fortune he'd find
 
The land in silence stands
 
Swan Lee paddled on from the land of his fathers his eyes 
scanned the undergrowth on either side from the shore hung a 
hot heavy creature infested tropic, Swan Lee had a bow by his 
side
 
Swan Lee got in half on land half on water grizzly bear and 
raccoon his fair
he followed his ears to the great waterfall for Swan Lee knew 
people and his squaw was there
 
the land in silence stands
 
Suddenly the rush of the mighty great thunder confronted Swan
Lee as this song he sang
In the dawn with his squaw, he was battling homewards, it was 
all written down by long Silas Lang

BIRDIE HOP

transcribed by James 
 
Chords Syd uses in the chorus:

   C#               A
E---9----12---9------9----12---9--------------
B---9----9----9------10---10---10-------------
G---10---10---10-----9----9----9--------------
D---------------------------------------------
A---------------------------------------------
E---------------------------------------------

Note:  Syd hammers on an E note, you'll have to listen to see where


C#
Birdie hop, he hop along
                     A
a lonely bird upon a window there, he, he, 

there he blow, a windy snow, he knew the snow, the hoppy bird


    A(open)
The antelope ride around a parasol
just to see if he's a man enough to you meet you in the sand pit
in a flying kind of sighing in a meddlesome bay
you know the way, I see the flies

A(open)
She's a little kite the sort you think you might like to fire and like a kite 
you get to see her everynight
you know the way
she's only paving her way, hate to complain, I see the flies


C#
Birdie hop he do, he hop along
                     A
a lonely bird upon a window there, he, he

there he blow, the windy snow, a hoppy bird


  A(open)
A camel woke up to a polished dawn
wouldn't look to see his feet had gone, he wouldn't like it 
wouldn't have the strength to fight it, I see the flies


A(open)
I'm the only bird, a little third, I lost a quarter, I had a yearning to be
earning just a dollar a day and in a way you shouldn't like it
hate to complain, I see the flies

LET’S SPLIT
 

E                D     A     C
ev'rything about about to go out, me out , you out
                      A
yes and ev'rything is out, about, out,  out, out, out, out, out, out,
D     C
let's split - I'm telling you this is it


E                   D      A                  C
ev'rything down  in hound, hound, hound, back down, down, down
     A             D
even ev'rything is down, abound and down, down, round, down, down, down
A     C                                  A D
let's split - I'm telling you this is it


G  D      A
nobody is right tonight, night, height, night, tight is, it isn't right
A
me out, you out, and ev'rything is out, out, out, out, out, out, out
C
let's split


(Syd then plays the C chord on the 10th fret, then whistles over the verse 
progression
until he no longer knows what he is doing and ends the song)

oh tell me please     just to give you a squeeze

half of your time - beside me only -

atmosphere - the singular raised by heats and wet
D       G           A       F#        A       B      A F# B
seems a while since I could smile the way you do...  oh...


E                                                 B
what can anyone mean to you standing in the milky way
          A               E
take life easy, I mean so easy
       Dm          F               A      
why so empty...? I told you, I can tell you - what to do
       F       D      G           A           F#            A       B     A F# B
when I hold you and I tell you "I love you" I feel that I'm way you do...


E                                                   B
give a grasp of life today when you're in the milky way
          A                            E
oh try to please! knock on wood of the trees
        Dm        F             A
glad to mold you, mould you and hold you
F          D         G    A   F#       A  B   A  B  B7
means five miles and everyway for you...

The land in silence stands
 
Swan Lee, his boat by a by the bank in the darkness loosened 
the rope from the creepers entwined
A feather from the wing of a wild young eagle pointed to the 
land where his fortune he'd find
 
The land in silence stands
 
Swan Lee paddled on from the land of his fathers his eyes 
scanned the undergrowth on either side from the shore hung a 
hot heavy creature infested tropic, Swan Lee had a bow by his 
side
 
Swan Lee got in half on land half on water grizzly bear and 
raccoon his fair
he followed his ears to the great waterfall for Swan Lee knew 
people and his squaw was there
 
the land in silence stands
 
Suddenly the rush of the mighty great thunder confronted Swan
Lee as this song he sang
In the dawn with his squaw, he was battling homewards, it was 
all written down by long Silas Lang

Note:  Syd hammers on an E note, you'll have to listen to see where


C#
Birdie hop, he hop along
                     A
a lonely bird upon a window there, he, he, 

there he blow, a windy snow, he knew the snow, the hoppy bird


    A(open)
The antelope ride around a parasol
just to see if he's a man enough to you meet you in the sand pit
in a flying kind of sighing in a meddlesome bay
you know the way, I see the flies

A(open)
She's a little kite the sort you think you might like to fire and like a kite 
you get to see her everynight
you know the way
she's only paving her way, hate to complain, I see the flies


C#
Birdie hop he do, he hop along
                     A
a lonely bird upon a window there, he, he

there he blow, the windy snow, a hoppy bird


  A(open)
A camel woke up to a polished dawn
wouldn't look to see his feet had gone, he wouldn't like it 
wouldn't have the strength to fight it, I see the flies


A(open)
I'm the only bird, a little third, I lost a quarter, I had a yearning to be
earning just a dollar a day and in a way you shouldn't like it
hate to complain, I see the flies

It seems to be in 6/8 (or 3/4, I guess) time

INTRO TAB:

VERSES:

     A              E
On a distant shore, miles from land
G                                    D
Stands the ebony totem in ebony sand,
  A                  E
A dream in a mist of grey
B                A
On a far distant shore.


A                          E
The pebble, it stood alone
G                             D
And driftwood lies half buried
A                          E
Warm, shallow water sweeps shells
B              A
So the cockles shine.


A                      E
A bare, winding carcas stalk
G                              D
Shimmers as flies scoop up meat.
A
An empty way,
B          A
Dry Tears.


A                         E
Crisp flax squeaks.  Tall reeds
      G              D
Make a circle of grey 
     A
In a summer way, around man
B         A
 so don't drown


BRIDGE:

(This is the long section of strummed chords.  I'll count measures 
 in 6/8 in the following way:

  ------  ------ ------
  G       C      D      means a measure of G, one of C and one of D)


unusual chords used:
     Cadd9:  x32030


begin bridge:

  ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------
  Cadd9  C      Bb            Cadd9  C      Bb     F       Esus4      
  ------ ------ 
  E             


  ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ 
  C7            F          F# G             A      D      G         

  ------ ------ 
 (still G)


  This is then repeated, except that the second time I think that 
  the first chord is C7 instead of Cadd9.

CLOSING:

(Note, I am highly uncertain -even moreso than I am about the rest of this 
song- about the "accuracy" of the transcription here.  Correct me, please!)

unusual chords used: 

      I don't know what to call these things, but they're based on 
      the chord x02200 which I think is either A5 or Asus2.

      The chords and my (incorrect) names for them are:

           A:       x02220
           A5:      x02200
           A5addF#: x02202
           A5addG#: x02204

Begin closing:

A      A5addG#
I'm trying

A      A5addG#
I'm trying

A5addF# A5
To find you

A5addF# A5
To find you

A      A5addG#
I'm living

A      A5addG#
I'm giving

A5addF# A5
To find you

A5addF# A5
To find you

The next part I think uses only the A chord:

A
I'm living
I'm living
I'm trying
I'm giving
(Switch at this point to A5 and diddle with it for a while)

       F       D      G           A           F#            A       B     A F# B
when I hold you and I tell you "I love you" I feel that I'm way you do...


E                                                   B
give a grasp of life today when you're in the milky way
          A                            E
oh try to please! knock on wood of the trees
        Dm        F             A
glad to mold you, mould you and hold you
F          D         G    A   F#       A  B   A  B  B7
means five miles and everyway for you...
