Curly And Raquel chords by Martha

Intro:
E A C#m F# G# A E x4


Verse:
E                    B
You tried to play it cool
                             C#m
When the blue lights started flashing
                        A
But that calm demeanour slipped
                        E
On the day that you got nicked
                       B
Cut me open and you'll see
                       C#m
That same anxiety runs all the way through me
              A
That stick of rock you never licked

Pre-Chorus:
C#m             F#
All the stories that we tell
A               E
Roy and Hayley, Curly and Raquel
F
Romantic reference
        B
Come on tell me what's your preference?


Chorus:
E              A
Celebrating my love for you
       C#m                 F#
With a stick'n'poke and an Iron Brew
E            A            C#m
Wondering if you can even tell?
F#      G#   A E               A
Finding some excuse to walk in your direction
C#m             F#
Bathe you in concealed affection
E            A             C#m
Subtlety's a word I cannot spell
         F#       G#   A  E
But it's probably just as well


Instrumental:
E A C#m F# G# A E x2


Verse:
E                    B
Here's the rub, they bulldozed the companions club
    C#m                             A
Now we've gotta learn to occupy our time
        E
Kicking stones, so it goes
        B
All our favourite haunts are closed
              C#m                               A
Let's sack it off and play a board game back at mine


Pre-Chorus:
C#m            F#
Weatherfield Mademoiselle
A                E           F#
Thinking back to Curly and Raquel
F#
On your arrival
      B
I can turn on the subtitles


Chorus:
E              A
Celebrating my love for you
       C#m              F#
With a cherry pop and a bad tattoo
    E            A            C#m
And wondering if you can even tell?
F#      G#   A E               A
Finding some excuse to walk in your direction
C#m             F#
Bathe you in concealed affection
E            A             C#m
Subtlety's a word I cannot spell
         F#       G#   A  E
But it's probably just as well


Instrumental:
E A C#m F# G# A E x2
E B C#m A x2


Bridge:
E
The story of
  B
A lonely kid who fell in love
     C#m                             A
When you spray painted 'ACAB' on the wall
                     A
Of the local village hall


Outro:
E B C#m A x2

E            B                   C#m            A
Celebrate my love for you with a stick and poke tattoo
E            B                   C#m            A
Celebrate my love for you with a stick and poke tattoo
E
The story of
  B
A lonely kid who fell in love
     C#m                             A
when you spray painted 'ACAB' on the wall
