Another Day Roy Harper
<br/> [Song: Roy Harper "Another Day"]<br/> [Transcription by Gordon Walker ]<br/> <br/> This is written as if played with no capo - see note at end for playing<br/> in the different keys.<br/> <br/> Another Day<br/> -----------<br/> <br/> 1.<br/> The kettle's on, the sun has gone, another day.<br/> Cmaj7 B7 Em D<br/> She offers me, Tibetan tea, on a flower tray.<br/> Cmaj7 B7 Em D<br/> She's the door, she's want's to score, she really needs to say:<br/> Cmaj7 B7 Em D<br/> "I once loved you a long time ago, you know.<br/> G D A (Asus4, A)<br/> Where the winds own forget-me-nots blow, you know.<br/> G D A (Asus4, A)<br/> But I couldn't let myself go, not knowing what on earth there was to know.<br/> G D A E <br/> But I wish that I had, 'cause it makes me so sad, <br/> G D G D<br/> that I never had one of your children".<br/> G D A (Asus4, A)<br/> <br/> 2.<br/> Across the room, inside a tomb, a chance is waxed and waned.<br/> The night is young, why are we so hung-up, in each other's chains.<br/> I must take her, I must make her, while the dove domains.<br/> See the jiuce run as she flies.<br/> Run my wings under her sighs<br/> As the flames of enternity rise, <br/> To lick us with the first born lash of dawn.<br/> Oh really my dear, I can't see what we fear, with ourselves, <br/> sat here between us<br/> <br/> 3.<br/> And at the door, we can't say more, than just another day.<br/> Without a sound, I turn around, and I walk away.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> Notes on chords etc<br/> -------------------<br/> I've written this out as if played in 1st position. Roy actually plays this<br/> with a capo on the 4th fret (so the first chord is in fact Emaj7) (although<br/> I'm not sure he doesn't play it starting on Fmaj7 on the original??)<br/> It goes very low singing it as written above - but I reckon to get away<br/> with it (mind you I never get away with my singing in the first<br/> place...). Whatever, best to think in terms of these chords. <br/> <br/> The way Roy plays the chords (as if in 1st position):<br/> <br/> =========== ==========x =========== =========== =========== <br/> |_|_|_|_|_| |_|_1_|_|_| |_|_|_|_|_| |_|_|_|_|_| |_|_|_|_|_| <br/> |_|_1_|_|_| 2_3_|_4_|_| |_2_3_|_|_| |_|_|_1_|_2 |_1_|_|_|_| <br/> 2_3_|_|_|_| |_|_|_|_|_| |_|_|_|_|_| |_|_|_|_3_| 2_|_|_|_3_4 <br/> |_|_|_|_|_| |_|_|_|_|_| |_|_|_|_|_| |_|_|_|_|_| |_|_|_|_|_| <br/> |_|_|_|_|_| |_|_|_|_|_| |_|_|_|_|_| |_|_|_|_|_| |_|_|_|_|_| <br/> <br/> Cmaj7 B7 Em D G<br/> <br/> <br/> =========== =========== =========== <br/> |_|_|_|_|_| |_|_|_|_|_| |_|_|_1_|_| <br/> |_|_1_2_3_| |_|_1_2_3_| |_2_3_|_|_| <br/> |_|_|_|_|_| |_|_|_|_4_| |_|_|_|_|_| <br/> |_|_|_|_|_| |_|_|_|_|_| |_|_|_|_|_| <br/> |_|_|_|_|_| |_|_|_|_|_| |_|_|_|_|_| <br/> <br/> A Asus4 E <br/> <br/> <br/> If you're not into capos or low singing, the easiest key to transpose to <br/> is up a 4th for which the chords would be (old ones in brackets):<br/> Fmaj7 (=Cmaj7); E7 (=B7); Am (=Em); G (=D); C (=G); D (=A); A (=E)<br/> <br/> <br/> --------------<br/> <br/> </div> </div> <div class="breadcrumbs">
