This Side of the Morning Del Amitri
This Side Of Morning Del Amitri (Justin Currie)
This si another song of the album "waking Hours" by Del
Amitri (1989). It is one of my favourites. It has lovley
chord-progressions and nevertheless is easy to play.
INTRO
2x D D6sus4 G A D D6sus4 G A
[D] No[D6sus4]body's [G]perfect,[A] and that's [D]something
that I'm[D6sus4] sure [G]she'll [A]know
Cause [D]trying to tell her [D6sus4]lies from the [G]truth at [A]times
is like [F#]trying to divide ice from [G]snow[G9]
[D] And when I [D6sus4]knew it was [G]over[A], I [D]jumped into a[D6sus4] taxi
And said "[G]Guess were to [A]go"
And the [D]driver turned [D6sus4]about and said,
"[G]Finding what you [A]want is like
[F#]Trying to divide ice from [G]snow"[G9]
So [A]here I [A9]sit, [G]rolling back to [G9]bed
Knowing [A]love is a hazard
[D6sus4]That I never [G]guessed[G9]
But from [D]this [D9sus4]side of [D6sus4]morning
I [G]couldn't care [A]less,[A7] [A6sus4] I [A]couldn't care [D]less.[D6sus4] [G] [A] [D] [D6sus4] [G] [A]
[D] No[D6sus4]body's [G]helpless[A], although
I've[D] never [D6sus4]felt this [G]helpless be[A]fore
And [D]trying to per[D6sus4]suade myself [G]not to think a[A]bout her
Is like [F#]trying to tell the clouds not [G]to pour[G9]
[D] And so I [D6sus4]put down the [G]bottle
[A] While in my [D]head time is col[D6sus4]lapsing
And the [G]currents run [A]cold
So [D]I can curse her[D6sus4] memory
But [G]don't try [A]telling me that [F#]she was not
An emerald in a [G]mountain of coal
Or that [G9]there's a [F#]crock of cures for cancer
At the [G]end of the ra[G9]inbow.
So [A]here I [A9]sit, [G]rolling back to [G9]bed
Knowing [A]love is a hazard
[D6sus4]That I never [G]guessed[G9]
But from [D]this [D9sus4]side of [D6sus4]morning
I [G]couldn't care [A]less,[A7] [A6sus4] I [A]couldn't care [D]less.[D6sus4] [G] [A] [D] [D6sus4] [G] [A]
And [A]she's the kind of girl who won't for[G]give
But will for[D]get
So [G]take my from this party, driver
[A]put me back to bed
I [A]wanted to be loved but just got [G]laughed at inst[D]ead
So [G]if this taxi is for [A]hir[A9]e
I'll get [G]in the back
Just to tell the [G9]friction of the tarmac and the[A] t[A7]yre[A6sus4]s.[A]
[D] [D] [D6sus4] [G] [A] [D] [D6sus4] [G] [A]
[D] So no[D6sus4]body's [G]perfect[A], and that's [D]something that
I'm [D6sus4]sure [G] she'll [A]know
And [D]trying to per[D6sus4]suade myself
[G]Not to think a[A]bout her is like
[F#]Trying to tell the crockels not to [G]crow[G9]
Or like [F#]trying to tell the striker
Not to [G]think about the [G9]goal.
So [A]here I [A9]sit, [G]rolling back to [G9]bed
Knowing [A]love is a hazard
[D6sus4]That I never [G]guessed[G9]
But from [D]this [D9sus4]side of [D6sus4]morning

"This Side Of Morning" Del Amitri
Helmers).
I made some changes (changes are defined as corrections and personal
preferences).
I put the capo on the 2nd fret, changed the intro, changed the end of each
verse and the end of the song. Either way... great tune.
