BIG SCREEN WALTZ - Plan B (Berlin)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: myself watching youtube gig vids
Tuning: Standard
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inspired by 2 gigs in Hamburg 2012:
"Plan B" Berlin (not London) with "Big Screen Waltz" from "Independent years 1984-1987" (1991)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Remember this is a waltz, so 3 beats per bar, emphasizing only beat 1.
The "C & Am" part strumming goes always something like this (repeating):
C |Am |C |Am
v ^v^|v ^v^|v ^v^|v v v
The other parts you have to figure out yourself.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The INTRO is like a verse:
C Am C Am C Am G G
C Am C Am C Am G G F F
C Am C Am
C Am C Am
I should work just like my daddy
C Am G G
at the edge of this town
C Am C Am
you should stay home just like your mommy
C Am G G
but instead we just hang around living
F F C Am C Am
And waiting for time to go by
C Am C Am
I could be the upper class kid
C Am G G
driving cars I can’t pay
C Am C Am
you could be the girl right beneath me
C Am G G
with designer jeans made down in france
F F C Am C Am
by a guy whose name you cannot spell
CHORUS:
F F G G
well, I never quite understood
Em G F F
your answers to my questions
F F G G
and I never quite understood
Em G F (F)
the film on the big screen of life
C Am C Am C Am C Am
C Am C Am
I can see your kind of fortune
C Am G G
recorded on a video tape
C Am C Am
and I agree that life seems much easier
C Am
if you got the chance
G G
just to rewind it if you
F F C Am C Am
missed a good part of the script
C Am C Am
my regards, you finally made it
C Am G G
all that you dreamed of is yours
C Am C Am
but don’t you think I’m feeling unhappy
C Am G G
for I can still dream and I still got the
F F C Am C Am
things I keep dreaming of
CHORUS:
F F G G
well, I never quite understood
Em G F F
your answers to my questions
F F G G
and I never quite understood
Em G F F
the film on the big screen of life
