The Things I Should Have Said Lindisfarne
CAPO: 3rd Fret
[Intro]
D C (6x)
[Verse 1]
[D]Two by two the [Am]lovers wandered [G]off into the [C]night
Leaving [D]me alone with [C]someone that I [G]only knew by [A]sight
So we [Bm]sat and watched each [G]other through the [Bm]fading fire[A]light
Each one [Bm]waiting for the [C]silence to be [Bm7]broken
[Cborus]
But the [D]things I should have [Em]said
That were [F#m]whispering in my [C]head
[G]Would not be [D]spoken[C]___[D] [C]
[Verse 2]
The [D]black gowned master [Am]glared at me with [G]malice in his [C]eye
The [D]spittle from his [C]twisted lips ran [G]down to his bow[A]tie
I was [Bm]dumb before his [G]accusations, [Bm]I did not de[A]ny
When he'd [Bm]done with me, I [C]stood outside there, [Bm7]shattered
[Cborus]
And the [D]things I should have [Em]said
That came [F#m]rushing to my [C]head
[G]No longer [D]matter[C]___[D]__[C]
[Instrumental]
D C (8x)
[Verse 3]
[D]Teachers from whose [Am]hallowed mouths, great [G]pearls of wisdom [C]fall
To [D]those who scrawl ob[C]scenities u[G]pon the alley [A]walls
The [Bm]joke is on the [G]bloke who never [Bm]spoke a word at [A]all
But whose [Bm]dreams lay unre[C]vealed, 'til they were [Bm7]rotten
[Cborus]
And the [D]things I should have [Em]said
That I was [F#m]keeping in my [C]head
[G]Have been for[D]gotten[C]__[D] [C] [D] [C]
[Outro] (## repeat and fade ##)
All the things I should have [D]said[C] [D] [C] [D] [C]
