Seven English Girls Ron Pope
well i'm supposed to be studying for exams right now so i figured this would be
the perfect time to dick around and write this out. the piano chords are posted
on ron pope's myspace but this is just a really simple way of playing it on
acoustic guitar, in a completely different key. i play it with a capo on the
third fret for my voice.
intro: C G D Em
C G D G (i like to add my pinky to each chord so it kind of
mimicks the piano version)
verse
[C]i drove eleven hundred [G]miles to find a photo[D]graph i'd lost[Em]
[C]it's just a pol[G]aroid i used to keep of a[D] girl that i once love[G]d
[C]and sleep, it leads to nig[G]htmares, as i never c[D]an forget[Em]
[C]so now i'm dreaming of l[G]os angeles as the w[D]inter closes in[G]
[C]said i'm dreaming of lo[G]s angeles as the winte[D]r closes in[G]
*play intro chords*
[C]and we met seven engl[G]ish girls who asked if we'[D]d like to see God[Em]
[C]and i'm not one for missed [G]adventures, so i answ[D]ered with a smile[G]
[C]we spent the night on razor'[G]s edge, all innocenc[D]e and sin[Em]
[C]and now i'm strung out on t[G]he bowery as the wint[D]er closes in[G]
[C]now i'm strung out on the bo[G]wery as the winter c[D]loses in[G]
chorus:
[C]and i won't cry if you[G] can't love me like the[D] way it used to feel[Em]
[C]we had our summer on long [G]island, now there's wounds [D]that never healed[G]
[C]and i won't cry if you[G] can't love me like the[D] way it used to feel[Em]
[C]we had our summer on long [G]island, now there's wounds.[D]..that never healed
*play intro chords*
(for the second set stop at D)
(play each chord with one down stroke)
[C]i'd paint a picture o[G]f my mother, but i [D]can't recall her face[Em]
[C]she's even far aw[G]ay at midnight, when her laug[D]hter haunts my dreams[G]
[C]i ain't never been this[G] broken, i've got nothi[D]ng left to give[Em]
[C]so now i'm searchin[G]g for salvation as [D]the winter closes in[G]
[C]i said i'm searching f[G]or salvation as the [D]winter closes in[Em]
[C]man i'm searching for[G] salvation as the winter[D] closes in[G]
[C]and i won't cry if you[G] can't love me like the[D] way it used to feel[Em]
[C]we had our summer on long [G]island, now there's wounds [D]that never healed[G]
[C]and i won't cry if you[G] can't love me like the[D] way it used to feel[Em]
[C]we had our summer on long [G]island, now there's wounds [D]that never healed[G]
[C]oh oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhh [G]oh oh ohhhhhhhhh[D]h oh oh[Em]
[C]oh oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhh o[G]h oh ohhhhhhhhh[D]h oh oh[G]
[C]oh oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhh [G]oh oh ohhhhhhhhh[D]h oh oh[Em]
[C]oh oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhh o[G]h oh ohhhhhhhhh[D]h oh oh[G]
outro:
[C] [G] oh oh ohhhh[D]hhhhhhh oh oh[Em]
[C] [G] [D]
post script: after i post this the chords will probably misplace themselves. im
not really sure how to fix that.
