Guitar chords with lyrics
a clever song this one. they don't often write them like this anymore. i'll be honest i knocked these out in a rush (in frustration at the lack of existing tablature, 'oh man i have to do it myself i guess' situation) so a lot of it is probably wrong, and if you're playing a guitar it might sound weird even if they are right, because some of the progressions rely upon notes other than the root, which is fine if you're using a keyboard becuase you have a left hand to do that stuff. so i'm sorry about that. also, most of it is buried under layers of strings and obscure basslines and guitar solo stuff, so it's hard to replicate anyway. like i said, it's clever. this album's a cracker start to finish.A augmentedA

(verse same as before) Go and fetch the captain's log and tear the pages out We're on our way to nowhere now, can't bring the helm about None of us are left in any doubt We won't be back again Send a message to the fleet they'll search for us in vain We won't be there among the reaches of the Spanish Main Tell the ones we left home not to wait Won't be back again And come the day you'll hear them saying They're throwing it all away Nothing more to say, just throwing it all awayE minorEm
