Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
This is a beautiful song by Johnny Flynn. Quite easy to play too!
I realize it's not perfect, but it sounds pretty good I think. Enjoy!
C G F C
Well it's time unremembered since the nameless left
C G C G C
What a wake trails those eyes of the storm
C G F C
And I know you had some trouble with your heart bereft
C G C G C
It’s hard to keep a lonely heart warm
G F
They don’t carry coals North, you won’t have any help
G F
There’s a measure of time in your drink
G F
Can’t trust that in the next one, you won’t be back on the same shelf
G F
So pitch time to do or die, to float or sink
Am F
And we live in the steel yard on reels of information
Am F
And we love along the white lines in the middle of the road
Am F
And our care lies in the telegraph poles and the taxi to the station
Am F
And you know the one that died became some elemental code
C G F
And what was the song that was playing
C G F
in the café when we heard?
G F
Wasn’t one of the greats, but it rang through me for a moment
C G C G C
Something about a murder, a brood, a fleet, a flock of birds
C G F C
Now the spheres of your loving are cast adrift
C G C G C
To the shores of another land
C G F C
And the packers and the movers haven’t time to lift
C G C G C
Any more than what lies to hand
G F
Now the border of reality is the most crowded any place
G F
Where a myth can be a public dream
G F
To the throes of this existence, you’ll take your lovely’s face
G F
As the light slips out of every seam
Am F
As the key turns, we burn brightly, an effervescent lover
Am F
In a last kiss with a dew drop, as the sun begins to fall
Am F
And in darkness please tread lightly, oh see what you discover
Am F
In the feeling, oh, the feeling of the elemental call
C G F
And what was the song that was playing
C G F
in the café when we heard?
G F
Wasn’t one of the greats, but it rang through me for a moment
