Brian Eno, from album Another Green Word
Intro:
Am- G- F- F-
Am- G- F- F-
C - - -
CBrown eyes and I were tired
We had walked and we had scrambled
Through the moors and through the briars
Through the endless blue meanders
In the Amblue GAugust FMoon
In the Amcool GAugust FMoon
COver the nights and through the fires
We went surging down the wires
Through the towns and on the highways
Through the storms in all their thundering
In the Amblue GAugust FMoon
In the Amcool GAugust FMoon
CThen we rested in a desert
Where the bones were white as teeth sir
And we saw St. Elmo's fire
Splitting ions in the Ether
Solo over:
Am- G- F- F- (4x)
C - - - (4X)
Am- G- F- F- (2x)
In the Amblue GAugust FMoon
In the Amcool GAugust FMoon
In the Amblue GAugust FMoon
In the Amcool GAugust FMoon
Outro:
C - - -
Recurring riff (over C chord):
