Soho Square chords by Kirsty Maccoll

Chords with lyrics

Your name froze on the winter air
     Ebsus4Ebsus4    Eb MajorEb
An empty bench in Soho Square
	 Ebsus4Ebsus4   Eb MajorEb
Forgotten now I turn away
      Ebsus4Ebsus4    C minorCm
Just save me for a rainy day
	   G minorGm	 C minorCm	      [Fill 1]   Eb MajorEb
But don't be sorry, I don't want to hear it baby


	   Ebsus4Ebsus4     Eb MajorEb
My feet froze in the winter chill
      Ebsus4Ebsus4    Eb MajorEb
I knew I'd probably get ill
     Ebsus4Ebsus4	  Eb MajorEb	     Ebsus4Ebsus4
But I was praying we could fill an empty bench and still
    C minorCm G minorGm  C minorCm		   [Fill 1]
You're so sorry but I don't want your pity baby

C majorC	      A minorAm
It's all yours now please don't tease
  FF		     G+G
The pigeons shiver in the naked trees
      C majorC		 A minorAm
And I'll do anything but please don't hurt me
   FF			G+G
Just kiss me quick 'cos it's my birthday
   FF		   C majorC  		 FF		G+G
And I feel so small I don't know why but no I'm not too old to cry

Eb MajorEb	Ebsus4Ebsus4	Eb MajorEb	Ebsus4Ebsus4

Eb MajorEb	  Ebsus4Ebsus4	 Eb MajorEb
 An empty bench in Soho Square.
		 Ebsus4Ebsus4	    C minorCm
If you'd have come you'd have found me there
	   G minorGm		 C minorCm		 [Fill 1]
But you never did 'cos you don't care and I'm so sorry baby
Eb MajorEb	   Ebsus4Ebsus4	  Eb MajorEb		  Ebsus4Ebsus4	 Eb MajorEb
I don't mind loneliness too much but when I met you I was touched
	   Ebsus4Ebsus4	   Eb MajorEb		 Ebsus4Ebsus4	 C minorCm G minorGm
And that was good enough for me but do we always have to be sorry
C minorCm		   [Fill 1]
 Why can't we just be happy baby?

C majorC	      A minorAm		   FF		  G+G
One day you'll be waiting there, no empty bench in Soho Square
	 C majorC		  A minorAm
And we'll dance around like we don't care
  FF		   G+G
And I'll be much too old to cry
	  FF		  C majorC			 FF    G+G
And you'll kiss me quick in case I die before my birthday

C majorC	A minorAm	   FF		G+G
	  Before my birthday
C majorC	A minorAm	   FF		G+G
	  Before my birthday
C majorC

[String Solo]

Play G+G at end of solo

C majorC	      A minorAm		   FF		  G+G
One day you'll be waiting there, no empty bench in Soho Square
  C majorC		  A minorAm		  FF		   G+G
No I don't know the reason why I'll love you till the day I die
  C majorC		   A minorAm
But one day you'll be waiting there
   FF		  G+G
Come summertime in Soho Square
	  C majorC		   A minorAm
And I'll be painting stars up in the sky
 FF		 G+G		   C majorC		A minorAm
Before I get too old to cry before my birthday
 FF		  G+G			 C majorC	  A minorAm		FF
I hope I see those pigeons fly before my birthday
  G+G		   C majorC		 A minorAm		FF     G+G
In Soho Square on my birthday
