Amy Macdonald: Barrowland Ballroom : This Is The Life
Tabbed by: p-nutz
Capo: First Fret
G
[Intro]
[Verse]
G
Oh the lights outside they're as bright as the sun
C
They're much brighter than anyone
G
Oh the girls in the queue yes they're waiting for you
C
Well they're waiting for their song to be sung
[Pre-Chorus]
Am C
And when the night turns to day and all the people go away
G D
It's not the same, tell me who's to blame?
Am C
And when the stars shine so bright on the cold December night
G D
I wish that I was on the stage
[Chorus]
Am
Oh won't you take a ride with me
D
Through the Barrowland history
G C
And I'll sing you a song or two
Am D
People they may stop and stare but baby I just don't care
G C
It's only me and you
Am
And the drink and dance and drugs you know
D
It's all part of the show we go to
G C
Maybe I should tell you
Am D
That people they may stop and stare but baby I just don't care
C D G
Tonight, it's only me and you
[Verse] same as 1st
Oh nothing beats the feeling of the high Barrowland ceiling
When the band start to play
Won't you buy me a drink and I'll tell her what I think if she gets in my way
[Pre-Chorus]
Am C
And when the night turns to day and all the people go away
G D
It's not the same, tell me who's to blame?
Am C
And when the stars shine so bright on the cold December night
G D
I wish that I was on the stage
[Chorus]
Am
Oh won't you take a ride with me
D
Through the Barrowland history
G C
And I'll sing you a song or two
Am D
People they may stop and stare but baby I just don't care
G C
It's only me and you
Am
And the drink and dance and drugs you know
D
It's all part of the show we go to
G C
Maybe I should tell you
Am D
That people they may stop and stare but baby I just don't care
C D G
Tonight, it's only me and you
G
until bridge
[Bridge]
Am D
And when the night turns to day and the lights they fade away
G C
I wish that love and life would pass me by
Am D
And when the band stops a song because there's something going on
G C
Well there is magic in the air I swear
Am D
And I wish that I saw Bowie, playing on that stage
C D
I wish that I saw something, to make me come of age
