Biografia:
Beatenberg is a South African pop band based in Cape Town, composed of Matthew Field, Robin Brink, and Ross Dorkin.
Despite being schooled in ‘serious music’ like Beethoven, Debussy and John Coltrane, (Dorkin and Field studied music together at the University of Cape Town) Beatenberg is adamant that they are heard as ‘pop music’.
Their first album, Farm Photos (2011, released independently), was a tender and somewhat naïve offering which somehow makes a strange and lasting impression with its sophisticated harmony

[Intro]
Am7 D G
[Verse]
Am7 D
I'm a lazy student
G
In a circular library
Am7 D
With a glass ceiling
G
And a parquet floor
Am7 D
After graduation
G
I'm gonna go to the Amazon
Am7 D
In search of a pigment
G
That I want on my wall
[Chorus]
Am7
Hold me
D
Scold me
Bm
Extol me
Em
Console me
Am7
Through the 90s
D
And the 80s
Bm
And the Tigris
Em
The Euphrates
[Verse]
C D
And after all that I've said
G
I want you to know me
Em
I want you to throw me
In the river
C D
So the clouds that follow my head
G
Can finally rain down
Em
On all your hydrangeas
C D
I never had a doubt that you would come through
G
I always adored you
Em
I always ignored you
C
Just to make you try harder
D
To you do what you do
G
I had to be awful
Em
Just to keep you from danger
[Instrumental]
Am7 D G
[Verse]
Am7 D
Come stand at my window
G
With a view of suburbia
Am7 D
As it marks out the edges
G
Of my opulent grounds
Am7 D
I'm rich but I'm troubled;
G
There's a worm in my Bougainvillaea
Am7 D
Why do you plague me
G
When my ethics are sound?
[Chorus]
Am7
Hold me
D
Scold me
Bm
Extol me
Em
Console me
Am7
Through the 90s
D
And the 80s
Bm
Through the waters
Em
Of Issey
[Verse]
C D
And after all that I've said
G
I want you to know me
Em
I want you to throw me
In the river

So the clouds that follow my head

Can finally rain down
Em
On all your hydrangeas
C D
I never had a doubt that you would come through
G
I always adored you
Em
I always ignored you
C
Just to make you try harder
D
To you do what you do
G
I had to be awful
Em
Just to keep you from danger
[Bridge]
Am7
And after all I've said
Bm G
It's academia
Am C
How could I be so faithful
D
To the Queen of Media?
C
Through the 90s
D
And the 80s
Bm
In the AD
Em
And the BC
C
Through the Xanthus
D
And the Yangtze
Bm
And the Niger
Em
And the Ganges
[Pre-Chorus]
Am7
Hold me
D
Fold me
Bm
Control me
Em
Cajole me
Am7
And release me
D
On the Lethe
Bm Em
And the ichor through my body
[Chorus]
C D
And after all that I've said
G
I want you to know me
Em
I want you to throw me
In the river
C D
So the clouds that follow my head
G
Can finally rain down
Em
On all your hydrangeas
