------------------------------------------------- Curse / New Model Army (B-Side to PURITY - 1990) ------------------------------------------------- [Chords] Verses: |: B(VII) A(V) | Ab(IV) Ab(IV) :| (2x) Another foggy night in hometown... Chorus: |: B(VII) Db(IV) | Ab(IV) Ab(IV) :| (2x) What do you want about... [Intro] |: Ab(IV) Ab(IV) :| [Verse 1] B(VII) A(V) Ab(IV) Ab(IV) Another foggy night in hometown B(VII) A(V) Ab(IV) Ab(IV) Yeah - cruising the backstreet pubs with a friend or two B(VII) A(V) Ab(IV) Ab(IV) I guess we were laughing how we made it through the bad old days B(VII) A(V) Ab(IV) Ab(IV) When across the bar I caught a glimpse of you [Verse 2] B(VII) A(V) Ab(IV) Ab(IV) ... Sometimes they ask me why I don't sit with you I guess the'll never understand I don't need to have my heart broken another time Or to have to shake your useless wasted hand [Chorus] So tell me, B(VII) Db(IV) what do you dream about? And tell me, B(VII) Db(IV) how do you shut it all out? B(VII) A(V) Ab(IV) And how do you live with yourself now? [Verse 3] And I hope that she's really happy now Now she's got her cake and went and ate him too Heads down, out, on 47 Poison Street With all the ghosts just sitting there with you [Instrumental] [Special] Bb(VI) Ab(IV) Beethoven, he was a deaf man Bb(VI) Ab(IV) And Jesus Christ was a jew Bb(VI) Ab(IV) But of all those little twists of irony A(V) B(VII) My favourite one is you [Verse 4] And if our eyes ever have to meet for more than just one second Then if you weren't already there I would tell you to go to hell But if I spent my whole damn life trying to think of a curse for you It would never be as bad as the curse that you dealt to yourself [Chorus] So tell me, B(VII) Db(IV) what do you dream about? And tell me, B(VII) Db(IV) how do you shut it all out? B(VII) A(V) Ab(IV) And how do you live with yourself now? So, what do you dream about? And how the hell do you shut it all out? And what do you feel about it now? -- Juergen Bohn, October 9 1999. Comments >> nma@jjbohn.com Last updated November 25 1999.
