Chords with lyrics
Part 1:
F# minorF#m
The build-up
A augmentedA
Lasted for days
E MajorE (C#C#)
Lasted for weeks
F# minorF#m (A augmentedA) E MajorE (E/C#)
Lasted too long
F# minorF#m A augmentedA
Our hero withdrew
E MajorE
When there was two
C#C#
He couldn not choose one
F# minorF#m
So there was none
A augmentedA (A/BA/B) F# minorF#m
Worn into the vaguely announced
A augmentedA (A/BA/B) F# minorF#m
Worn into the vaguely announced
Part 2:
A augmentedA
The spinning top made a sound
Like a train across the valley
E MajorE
Fading, oh so quiet
E/C#
But constant 'til it passed
F# minorF#m
Over the ridge, into the distances
F#m/A
Written on a ticket
E MajorE
To remind you where to stop
E/C# A augmentedA
And when to get off
The spinning top made a sound
BB
Like a train across the valley
Fading, oh so quiet
C#C#
But constant 'til it passed
F# minorF#m
Over the ridge, into the distances
E MajorE
Written on a ticket
To remind you where to stop
E/C# F# minorF#m
And when to get off
The spinning top made a sound
F#m/A E MajorE
Like a train across the valley
E MajorE
Fading, oh so quiet
E/C# F# minorF#m
But constant 'til it passed
F#m/A
Over the ridge, into the distances
E MajorE
Written on a ticket
To remind you where to stop
E/C# F# minorF#m
And when to get off
F#m/A E MajorE
When to get off
E/C# A augmentedA
When to get off
E MajorE
When to get off
