Slark chords by Stackridge

Slark

Recorded by Stackridge from the album 'Stackridge' - released 1971
	- Composed by Andy (Creswell-) Davis and Jim 'Crun' Walter

Instrumental bit - at the start and the end and between the verses -

Em  -  G  (Gsus4) G  - D (Bm) D - C (Am) C
Em  -  G  (Gsus4) G  - D  - C - Em
Twice

The chords in brackets are played quickly and you don't have to
play them at all really - it depends how close you want to stick
to the melody line. In addition the Am can just as easily be
played as Fmaj7 as it sounds almost the same and is slightly easier ??

Verses

G 		  D          A        Em
Careering along in my creosote car

     G           D             A        Em
From Kebeeble to Kenn I didn't get very far

    G          D           A          Em
The sky turned black and a dark cloud grew

    G        D        C      Bb
The monster Slark came in to view


I pleaded with Slark to pass me by
"I've done nothing wrong, I don't want to die"
He scooped me up in his huge grey claws
And bore me away without any cause

We soared many miles over mountain and stream
A cold grey mist woke me up from my dream
The sun fought snow in a winning duel
I found us standing by a silver pool

The monster heaved a great belching sigh
A flash of lightening shot towards the sky
White birds flew from the turmoiled scene
And out stepped a lady like an ancient queen

She floated towards the golden sand
Smiled a smile then took my hand
She led me away to the bottom of the lake
The last magic steps I was ever to take.


Ad-lib the middle 10 minutes and the ending !!!!! - OK ??

Plesase note - the above is what I p[ay - dunno where they play it !!!
