Am F G
Sit down my love of open spaces
Am F G
And greet my love that's all been spent
C Dm Dm/E
I'm going to tell you both a story
F Em Am
About some memories that I've dreamt
Am F G
See I've lost love in many places
Am F G
Not least the streets of São Paulo
C Dm Dm/E
One friend especially I did make there
F Em Am
A tenth floor window took her home
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A F G9
Sometimes I could cry for miles
C9 F
Sometimes I could cry for miles
Dm Gsus4 G
Sometimes I could cry for miles
Em
But I don't
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Am F G
So hush the shadows in the oak tree
Am F G
Be still the curlew on the moor
C Dm Dm/E
My heart has fallen by the wayside
F Em Am
I cannot claim her anymore
Am F G
So don your duffel coats quite slowly
Am F G
And this drop jury shall adjourn
C Dm Dm/E
And on the streets of old São Paulo
F Em Am
I watched my baby being burned
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A F G9
Sometimes I could cry for miles
C9 F
Sometimes I could cry for miles
Dm Gsus4 G
Sometimes I could cry for miles
Em
But I don't
A F G9
Sometimes I could cry nine times
C9 F
Drop my bags and run for miles
Dm Gsus4 G
Sometimes I could live nine lives
Em A
But I won't, but I wooooon't

PIANO SOLO
God knows what you can do with this, just strum the chords really...

SECOND SECTION
In 4/4 time, thankfully
Key change to Bb! So you know what to do to make it easier...
Somehow move the capo up to the 3rd fret. These chords are relative to the 3rd fret capo.

When there's no skin left on your bones......
A D E D (chords etc.)
Thrown across the water, thrown across the water, thrown across the water like a stone
Thrown across the water, thrown across the water, thrown across the water like a stone
Thrown across the water, thrown across the water, thrown across the water like a stone
Thrown across the water, thrown across the water, thrown across the water like a stone
Ah, get me a doctor, get me a doctor, who will get rid of my bones
Oh, get me a lover, get me a lover, who will leave my little head alone
Ah, get me a soldier, get me a soldier, who will fight me a pointless war
Ah, get me an exit, I need an exit, be it window, or be it door
Thrown across the water, thrown across the water, thrown across the water like a stoooone
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.. (lol)
Ah, get me a lawyer, get me a lawyer, who will sue the world for me
Ah, get me a poison, get me a poison, get me a poison who isn't me
Cos I'm getting tired, I'm getting tired, of my stupid little face
I, don't belong here, don't belong here, don't belong in this horse-race
Na na na na na na na na naa naa.....
Na na na na na na na na naa naa.....
Na na na na na na na na naa naa.....
Na na na na naaaaaaa naaaaaaaaa.....
[Improv etc - hit guitar and random objects]
Oooooooooohhh.....
Thrown across the water, thrown across the water, thrown across the water like a stone
Thrown across the water, thrown across the water, thrown across the water like a stone...
