VERSE 1
[C]Ba- [Bm]by [Am]went [G]to Amsterdam
She [C]put a [Bm]little [Am]money [G]into travelling
Now it's [Em]so [D]slow, [Bm]so [A]slow
[C]Ba [Bm]by [Am]went [G]to Amsterdam
[C]Four, [Bm]five [Am]days for the [G]big canal
Now it's [Em]so [D]slow, [B]so [B]slow [B7]
PRE CHORUS
And I was [C]heading up [G]north
To a [C]place that I [G]know
[Em]Eating [D]well, [Bm]sleeping [A]well
But [C]still I was [G]way, [C]way out of [G]line
[Em]Amster- [D]dam was [Bm]stuck in my [E]mind
CHORUS *
[F]Oh, it's a [Am]kind of [G]stupid [F]rule
That you [Am5]can't [G]ignore
[F]Oh, it's a [Am]kind of [G]natural [F]fact
Sometimes [A5]you're [G]just left to [D]be [D]alone
VERSE 2
Baby went to Amsterdam
She put a little money into travelling
Now it's so slow, so slow
Baby went to Amsterdam
Four, five days for the big canal
Now it's so slow, so slow
PRE-CHORUS
And I got to go away
To a place of my own
Working hard, fill my time G
From that day on, till I hit the bed
Amsterdam was stuck in my head
CHORUS
Oh, it's a kind of stupid groove
That you can't ignore
Oh, it's a kind of natural fact
Sometimes you're just left to be alone
FINISH PLAYING THIS 4x :
Baby went to Amsterdam
She put a little money into travelling
Now it's so slow, so slow
COMMENTS:
For the kind of bizzaroiD chorus (« oh, it’s a kind of stupid rule... »), if it sounds
on your guitar, just play the base string. It may differ because I tabbed it on the accordion.
Chords by [email protected], fery vun to play. It makes your girlfriend sing and dance! Enjoy!
