RUFUS WAINWRIGHT: "TIERGARTEN"

Otra maravilla de "Release the stars", originalmente en B. Se escucha acá.

Acordes infrecuentes (los dibujitos están suspendidos por falta de tiempo, lo siento):
Eb7: xx1323
G#maj7: 465544
Fm/D: xx0111 (¡qué lindo acorde!) 
G5+: xx0443 (en realidad ahí hay un silencio y solo suena la nota Mi bemol, como deformando el acorde anterior en lugar de donde iría, por la estructura de la canción, el Sol mayor. Este creo que queda bien). 


Intro: |C - Dm7 - Am - Em - Dm7 - G4 - G|

|C| Won't you walk me |Dm7| through the |Am| Tier- |Em| garten? 
|Dm7| Won't you walk me |G| through it |C| all, |Em| darling? 
|Dm7| Doesn't matter |G| if it |C| is |B7| raining 
|Dm7| Won't you walk me |G| through it |C| all? |Dm7 - G| 

|C| Even if the |Dm7| sun it |Am| is |Em| blazing 
|Dm7| Even if the |G| snow it |C| is |Em| raging 
|Dm7| All the ele- |G| ments, we |C| must |B7| conquer 
|Dm7| To get to the other |G| side of |C| town |Dm7 - G|

......|Cm| I have suffered shipwreck against your |Bbm7| dark brown eyes 
......|Eb7| I have run aground against your |G#| broken down smiles 
......Be- |Cm| lieve me when I tell you I have no |Bbm7| place to go 
......But |Eb7| to go where the wild flowers |G#| grow 
......and the |G#maj7| stone gardens |Fm/D| bloom
......(And the |G| stone gardens...) 

|C| Won't you walk me |Dm7| through the |Am| Tier- |Em| garten? 
|Dm7| Won't you walk me |G| through it |C| all, |Em| darling? |C - Em|
|Dm7| Doesn't matter |G| if it |C| is |B7| raining 
|Dm7| We'll get to the other |G| side of ... 

Final: |C - Em| x 2 |Dm7 - G5+ - C|

TALKING HEADS: "HEAVEN"

Una sencillita, para descansar de tantos sus cuatro barra equis aumentada novena que hubo en estos días. De Eb la pasé a A; de ahí se puede subir un poco para que no quede tan grave; todo este maneje porque el "nothing ever happens" es demasiado agudo. Para escucharla, qué mejor que la versión tal vez inmejorable de "Stop making sense".


|A| Everyone is trying |Bm| to get to the bar.
|E| The name of the |D| bar, the bar is called |A| heaven.
The band in heaven |A| plays, they play my |Bm| favorite song.
|E| They play it once a- |D| gain, they play it all night |A| long.

......|F#m| Heaven - Heaven is |Fm| a |Em| place 
......A place where |G| nothing, nothing ever |D| happens
......|F#m| Heaven - Heaven is |Fm| a |Em| place
 ......A place where |G| nothing, nothing ever |D| happens

|A| There is a party, |Bm| everyone is there.
|E| Everyone will |D| leave at exactly the same |A| time
It's hard to i-
|A| magine that |D| nothing at all
|E| Could be so ex- |D| citing, could be so much |A| fun.

......|F#m| Heaven - Heaven is |Fm| a |Em| place 
......A place where |G| nothing, nothing ever |D| happens
......|F#m| Heaven - Heaven is |Fm| a |Em| place
 ......A place where |G| nothing, nothing ever |D| happens

|A| When this kiss is over |Bm| it will start again.
|E| It will not be any |D| different, it will be exactly... the |A| same
It's hard to i- |A| magine that |Bm| nothing at all
|E| Could be so ex- |D| citing, could be so much |A| fun

......|F#m| Heaven - Heaven is |Fm| a |Em| place 
......A place where |G| nothing, nothing ever |D| happens
......|F#m| Heaven - Heaven is |Fm| a |Em| place
 ......A place where |G| nothing, nothing ever |D| happens
