GORKY'S ZYGOTIC MYNCI: "SPANISH DANCE TROUPE"



Intro: |Em - D - A| x 2 

Woke up on |Bm| monday |E| and got ready for |A| school
Put on my |Bm| uniform |E| it was three sizes too |A| small
I said "dear, dear, dear |Bm| teacher |E| I've been six years a-|A| way
And ain't finished my |Bm| essay |E| coz rock'n'roll rules |A| ok!"

......|Em| Ooooooooh oo-|D| oh oo-|A| oh ooh ooh

My conclusion this 
|Bm| summer, |E| was there was much too much |A| rain
So I ran off on |Bm| thursday |E| with a dance troupe from |A| Spain
Where wine, dance and |Bm| music |E| is the name of the |A| game
From Bilbao to |Bm| Madrid, |E| my mind ain't been the |A| same

......|Em| Ooooooooh oo-|D| oh oo-|A| oh ooh ooh
......|Em| Ooooooooh oo-|D| oh oo-|A| oh ooh ooh

Oh the rehearsals went 
|Bm| easy |E| and I'd learnt all the |A| moves
I was playing a |Bm| tree trunk |E|  in a forest of |A| fools
Now Maria moved |Bm| real good |E|  and I could if I |A| would
But when your mind's your |Bm| prison, |E|  things just don't seem so |A| good

......And then we'll be |Bm| married |G| 
......Then we'll be |Bm| happy |G| 
......And then we'll be |Bm| married |G| 
......Then we'll be |Bm| happy
......|F#| Ooooo-|Bm| oooohhhhhhhhhh |E - A| 
......|Bm - E - A| 

GENESIS: "THE LAMB LIES DOWN ON BROADWAY"

Desmitificada y al alcance de cualquier rascador. C11+ sería añadiendo F#, ya sea en la 4ª como en la 1ª:


|B - Bm7| 

... and the |F#| lamb lies |G4| down on |C| Broadway

|C| Early morning Manhattan, ocean wind blows on the land
|Em| The Movie Palace is now undone
The |F| all-night watchmen have had their fun
|Em| Sleeping cheaply on the midnight show
It's the |F| same old ending, time to go, get |C| out! |C11+| 

......It |B| seems they cannot leave their dream, 
......There's |Bm7| something moving in the sidewalk steam
......And the |F#| lamb lies |G4| down on |C| Broadway

|C| Nightime's flyers feel their pains, drugstore takes down the chains
|Em| Metal motion comes in bursts
But the |F| gas station can quench that thirst
Sus-|Em| pension cracked on unmade road
The |F| trucker's eyes read overload
|C| And out of the |C11+| subway

......|B| Rael Imperial Aerosol Kid, 
......|Bm7| Exits into daylight, spraygun hid
......And the |F#| lamb lies |G4| down on |C| Broadway

............The |Fmaj7| lamb seems right out of place
............Yet the |Cmaj7| Broadway street scene finds a |Fmaj7| focus in its face
............|Dm6| Somehow it's lying there, brings a |A| stillness to the air
............Though |Am| ma--|Dm|--an-made |Am| light |Dm| 
............At |Am| night is |Dm| very |Am| bright |Dm| 
............There's |Bbmaj7| no whitewash victim
............As the |Fmaj7| neons dim, to the coat of |C| white |C11+| 

......|B| Rael Imperial Aerosol Kid, 
......|Bm7| Wipes his gun, he's forgotten what he did
......And the |F#| lamb lies |G4| down on |C| Broadway

|C| Suzanne tired her work all done, thinks money, honey, be on, neon
|Em| Cabman's velvet glove sounds the horn
And the |F| sawdust king spits out his scorn
|Em| Wonder women draw your blind
|F| Don't look at me, I'm not your kind, I'm |C| Rael |C11+|

......|B| Something inside me has just begun
......|Bm7| Lord knows what I have done
......And the |F#| lamb lies |G4| down on |C| Broadway
......On Broadway
