Promenade
[intro]
Look at the strumming pattern. It's basically a 8/4 timing (I guess..) with a C for first 6 beats
and an F for the last two beats.
C-----F-|C-- etc
C F
Earth, sky, scenery.
C F
Is she coming back again?
C F
Men of straw, snooker hall.
C F
Words that build or destroy
C F C F
Dirt dry, bone, sand and stone.
C F
Barbed wire fence cut me down.
C F
I'd like to be around
C
in a spiral staircase
Am G
To the higher ground.
Am G
And I, like a firework, explode.
F F F C F C C F C F C
Roman candle, lightning, lights up the sky.
C F C F
In cracked streets, trample underfoot.
C F C
Side-step, sidewalk.
F C F C
I see you stare into space.
F C F C
Have I got closer now, behind the face?
Am G Am
Oh, tell me, Cherry you dance with me
G
Turn me around tonight
F F C F
Up through the spiral staircase to the higher ground.
[outro] (Again just C for 6 beats and F for two beats)
C F
Slide show, seaside town.
C F C F C
Coca-cola, football radio, radio, radio, radio, radio, radio.
