Biography:
Admiral Fallow is a Scottish folk/pop group based in Glasgow. Formerly known as Brother Louis Collective, the band was formed in 2007 and around the singer/songwriter Louis Abbott. Citing influences including Tom Waits, Elbow, Low, Midlake, King Creosote, and Springsteen, Admiral Fallow adds clarinet, flute, double bass and four jaw-dropping voices to the usual indie line-up to smash through their joyous, heart-filled, orchestral-tinged and beautifully well crafted songs.

Admiral Fallow - Evangeline

Beautiful song, pre-release from their upcoming album, Tiny Rewards – hopefully this makes sense to anyone
who has listened to the song, and play it yourselves!! I have included a suggestion of chord shapes below, to
sound fuller and bigger, as the band do, with their creative textures and layering. In case you’re as much of
a theory nerd as me, I’ve put the proper names of the suggested voicings next to them,
so you can show off your boss knowledge of chords…
Enjoy!
A = 577600 (Aadd9)
B =799600 (Badd11)
G#m = 466444

B/D# = x64400 (Badd11/D#)
E = 022100
Bm = x244300 (Bm add11)
Verse 1
A B G#m A/C#
Flying out of the traps you came, tiny bundle of energy
B/D# G#m
Chip off the old block they say
A B G#m A/C#
What you lack in common sense, you make up with ebullience
B/D# G#m
Transforming the mundane events
A (hold over to pre-chorus)
A perfect balance
Pre-Chorus
B
Two parts: tantrums and tidal waves (repeat both lines as backing vocals)
G#m A E (hold for 2 bars)
Two parts: blissful and baby faced
Chorus
E Bm G#m
Little one, before you came along I was feeling indigo
Bm
Would not have thought a month ago…
Verse 2
A B G#m A/C#
Flying out of the holding bay, to the arms of a nobody
B/D# G#m
Barely independent, say, even with the first few greys
A (hold to pre-chorus)
A perfect balance
Pre-Chorus
B
Two parts: tantrums and tidal waves (repeat both lines as backing vocals)
G#m A E (hold for 2 bars)
Two parts: blissful and baby faced
Chorus
E Bm G#m
Little one, before you came along I was feeling indigo
Bm
Would not have thought a month ago
E Bm G#m
I could love a tiny bundle of tidal waves as much
Bm A/C# B/D# G#m
You should know you’ve made a vast improvement, Evangeline,
A B (finish)
a vast improvement, Evangeline
