SOL RE DO RE
From the top of the bus she thought she saw him wave
she saw Tuesdays and forgetfulness and a little money saved
Does she know ? I don't know but from here I can tell
Chorus
SOL RE DO RE
That it would try the patience of angels
it would try the patience of angels
SOL RE DO RE
And you know something's wrong when the morning hurts your eyes
you'll be waiting 'til you die
Would I be any good and if I was would I find
Chorus
SOL RE DO RE
There's a door in a wall in a house in a street
she's the patience of
angels
SOL RE DO RE
Does she know? I don't know but from here I can tell
There's a door in a wall in a house in a street
she's the patience
of angels
Strumming is:
|x-----------------x-x------x--------x--------x--------| = 1 bar
beats 1 2 3 4 5 6
6 beats per bar, one chord per bar. Play the 6th beat as the top 4 strings
open (DGBe = ?Gadd6) in every bar. (This sounds right and it gives you ages to
make the chord change!)
Suggest picking out the lines marked < x > by singing them an octave higher
than the rest.
Chords are standard (open) fingerings.
This G D C D stuff is a bit of an oversimplification. Live, there seems to be
some melody going on on the top two strings, but I haven't worked out what
he's doing. Still, this should be enough to carry the tune in the
Underground/Subway!
Boo plays this live in Db (capo at 6th fret), Eddi Reader's album version is
in Bb (capo 3), I can't get above B (Capo 4) if I'm going to hit the next
octave in the vocal- just play it in as high a key as you can.
Also, if it's quiet you can try an arpeggio intro:
E ----------3------------------2----------------0---------------2-----
B ------------3--------------2---3----------------1-----------2---3---
SOL
--------------4----------3-------2----------0-----0-------3-------2-.||
RE
--------5-----------0---------------------2-----------0-------------.||
A ------5-------------------------------3-----------------------------
E -3------------------------------------------------------------------
G(barre 3) D C D
