PAPAS FRITAS: "VERTICAL LIVES"

The |A| last buil-|D2/6| ding I |A| saw |D2/6|
Was a |A| thousand |D2/6| stories |A| tall |D2/6|

THE DUCKWORTH-LEWIS METHOD: "MEETING MR. MIANDAD"

The Duckworth-Lewis Method es el complicado nombre (tomado de una regla del juego del cricket) que ha asumido el dúo, presuntamente efímero, conformado por el enorme Neil Hannon y el cantante de los excelentes Pugwash, Thomas Walsh. Los muchachos sacaron no hace mucho un muy buen disco con el mismo nombre (ya la corto con los adjetivos, tranquilos) y el amigo Julio pidió los acordes del hit, cuyo video se aprecia a continuación. El tono original está respetadísimo.

Intro: |D - D/C# - D/B - D/A - G - G/F# - Em - C7| - |D|

|D| Woke up from a dream, Thursday |F#m| morning

|C| Mr. Miandad to me was |Em| calling, yeah |A4 - A|

......|G| When we get to Pakistan, |Bm| in our VW |A| Camper Van

|D| Everywhere we go, people |F#m| know us

|C| When we lose our way, people |Em| show us |A4 - A|

|D| When we break down, people |F#m| tow us

And |C| send us on our way with a |G| smile and a little |A4| wave, hey, hey, |A| hey

ANNIE LENNOX, "WHY"

Una que sepamos todos, primera entrega. Una linda canción, pero que no sería gran cosa si no fuera por la parte donde va al Re, que la realza y la hace mucho más interesante. Respetado el tono original. D7/9 es xx0210 (como Fmaj7 pero sacando un dedito, digamos). Acá el video. Saluti a tutti.

|C| How many times do I |Em/B| have to try to |Am| tell you

That I'm |F| sorry for the |C| things I've done |Em/B - Am - F| |G|

But |C| when I start to try to tell you |Em/B| 

That's when you have to tell me

|Am| Hey... this kind of |F| trouble's only

|C| just beg-|Em/B|-un, ye-|Am|-ah |F| |G|

|D| I tell myself too many |Bm7| times

Why don't you ever learn to |F#m| keep your big mouth |G| shut |A|

|D| That's why it hurts so bad to |Bm7| hear the words

That keep on |F#m| falling from your |G| mouth

......|Fmaj7| Falling from your mouth

........|D7/9| Falling from your mouth... Tell me...

............|C| Wh---|Em/B - Am|---y |F| |G|

............|C| Wh---|Em/B - Am|---y |F| |G|

|C| I may be mad, I may be |Em/B| blind

I may be viciously un-|Am| kind, but I can |F| still read what you're  

|C| thinking |Em/B - Am - F - G|

|C| And I've heard it said too many |Em/B| times that you'd be better off

Be-|Am| sides... Why can't you |F| see this boat is  

|C| sinking (this boat is |Em/B| sinking, this boat is |Am| sinking |F|)|G|

|D| Let's go down to the water's |Bm7| edge

we can |F#m| cast away those |G| doubts |A|

|D| Some things are better left un-|Bm7| said

But they still |F#m| turn me inside |G| out

......|Fmaj7| Turning inside out

........|D7/9| Turning inside out... Tell me...

............|C| Wh---|Em/B - Am|---y |F| |G| Tell me...

............|C| Wh---|Em/B - Am|---y |F| |G| 

|C| This is the book I never read

|Em/B| These are the words I never said

|Am| This is the path I'll never tread

|F| These are the dreams I'll dream instead

|C| This is the joy that's seldom spread

|Em/B| These are the tears, the tears we shed

|Am| This is the fear, this is the dread

|F| These are the contents of my head

|C| And these are the years that we have spent

|Em/B| And this is what they represent

|Am| And this is how I feel

|F| Do you know how I feel

|C| 'cause i don't think you know |Em/B|

|Am| I don't think you know what I feel |F| |G|

|C - Em/B| I don't think you know what I fear |Am - F - G|

|C| You don't know what I fear
