artist : voxtrot
song : whiskey & water
intro : Em – D – C ( x3 ) – G
G D C
please send me a sign
G B
and set me up against the rain
Em D C
and give me something i can trust
D
in all the drama of change
G D C
i followed a dream
G B
and if a man is born to fall
Em D C
then let me live against my creed
D
in all the filth of it all
C G
and i can drink my whiskey and water
B Em
and fix folly in peace
C
cos there’s a price you pay
G D
to live this way , its called a release
G D C
please drop me a line
G B
and send me love and sun to boot
Em D C
cos i Am idle drunk and well
D
busy with nothing to do
G D C
this body is cold
G B
i have to make the grade alone
Em D C
cos i have traveled far to find
D
i need a room of my own
C
where i can
G
break kindly with fortune
B Em
cos she’s something to be
C G
she’s spending saturdays in the baltic
D
with the ssp
C G
and i Am charged guilty as sin
B Em
because it hurts me to know
C
that she is working so hard
G D
but for the joy of stock control
instrumental verse :
G – D – C – G – B
Em – D – C – D – C – G
G D C
but let me sing out to myself
G B
and polish off these bottled cries
Em D C
and send them down to saville row
D
cos i’m not ready to die
G D C
but i , i’m ready to live
G B
can i make it out with pride
Em D C
play the left wing let down king
D
put out there something to hide
C G
and i can run to you for cover and
B Em
we’ll bury the dread
C G
and when the time has come for leaving
D
i will love you instead
C G
oh won’t you sing something in minor key
B Em
this stillness is bleak
C G
oh could we dream away the guilt
D
we have for the working week
C G
oh and in the warm arms of a stranger i’m
B Em
too happy to lie
C G
i know we’ve both been here before
D
just please don’t ask me why
C
and i have
G
walked here with you close to me
B Em
but never alone
C G
but won’t you cling to me in the major key
D
all the joy i’ve known
C
all the joy i’ve known
G C
oh the joy i’ve known ( x4 )
G C
lalalala – lalala ( x3 )
G
lalala la
