Dare The Wedding Present
A classic from Gedgy-baby.
From the album: Seamonsters
Most of the F# and G chords are played without the low E.
And there's one more [D5]thing just
Come inside, no I'm all [F#]alone
[G]Danny isn't here today
She [D5]said she just had to get away
[D5]It's on your right, just by the [F#]telephone
[G]She promised that she'd try and ring
[D5]So far I haven't heard a thing
[F#]I'm glad you came [G]round though
[F#]There's something I [G]must know
[D5]You shook your heard and you [F#]walked away
I [G]think you'd maybe had a row
I [D5]know you wouldn't leave him now
[D5]But the things you said as you [F#]turned my way
[G]The look that came into your eyes
[D5]It kind of took me by surprise
[F#]And you can't have [G]not known
[F#]I'd be here on my [G]own
[D5]Stay all night, I dare you[F#]
Look [G]who is going to know?
I can't [D5]believe you want to go!
[D5]Yes alright I scare you[F#]
But [G]you're just as bad as me
And I know [D5]where I'd rather be

(David plays this using a slide on the E/A string)
Now rhythm plays barre chords from now until last chorus:
D5 F# G D5 (x2)
[D5]Are you calling John? Well tell him [F#]anything!
[G]Look how we tremble when we kiss
[D5]One day soon we'll laugh at this!
[D5]But just tonight, we've got [F#]everything
[G]Stop listening for the door
[D5]I've told you where she went before
[F#]Nothing can [G]go wrong
[F#]If you're not here [G]too long
Just [D5]stay all night, I dare you[F#]
Look [G]who is going to know?
I can't [D5]believe you want to go!
[D5]Yes alright I scare you[F#]
But [G]you're just as bad as me
And I know [D5]where I'd rather be
-Repeat the bridge to coda-
-after some repeats just play around with the last 2 lines (where it moves to the A
string) and move up the neck? have fun with it-
