Carry Me Away chords by Concrete Blonde

Chords with lyrics

for this one, I put alot of emphasis on the bass notes
I havent spent years on it or anything but this is
how I think it might go:

CARRY ME AWAY- Concrete Blonde

  A minorAm    E minorEm      C majorC     G+G    A minorAm
Today I went and bought myself a bottle

         G+G          A minorAm
Like we used to do, reminded me of you.


  A minorAm    E minorEm    C majorC     G+G     A minorAm
Today I saw a train roll by the river

          G+G           A minorAm
Blowing off its steam, reminded me of me

  G+G                   A minorAm
That's when I threw the bottle in the river,

  G+G                   A minorAm    G+G   C majorC   E minorEm
That's when I started running for the train.


     A minorAm     E minorEm     C majorC    G+G    A minorAm
There's nothing that you need I cant deliver

      G+G        A minorAm
Carry me away, carry me away


       A minorAm     E minorEm     C majorC    G+G
Think it's seven or nine California time

     A minorAm                              G+G
He who said he(it) was a small one(world) was either a liar or a fool,


'cos its not true.

      A minorAm      E minorEm       C majorC     G+G
And the promises we make are as easy to break

     A minorAm
As the plastic people on a wedding cake

     G+G        A minorAm
So says you, to know I do.

For the next part, play G+G and A minorAm like this:
(I saw him do it this way in concert)

 G+G        N.C.  A minorAm

play the G+G and C majorC bass notes with your ring finger


G+G   N.C.     A minorAm
	 I hear you thinking
G+G   N.C.    A minorAm G+G C majorC E minorEm
	 From far away

I just a-keep-on lyin' and cryin' and tryin' and drinkin'
I'm gonna carry me away, carry me away

	 If you think about me
     From far away

I hope you find her with me or without me
carry me away, carry me away...etc..fade out

seeya,
eric
