Small talk

Spending my time

The look

The rain

Vulnerable

Church of your heart

From: Carol Vorderman 

 Written by Per Gessle
 Trans. Ben Sinclair (ssusncla+rdg.ac.uk)


 Normal tuning.

 Intro: 2 guitars, so basically just strum the verse.

 G* D C D
 G* D C D


 Verse:
          G                  D
 Can't we leave the world outside

            C                 D
 just for a while? Just for a while?

                G             D
 And spend some time, you and I,

            C               D
 under this bright glorious sky.

             E                   D
 It's been so long since I first saw you

                 A     C             D
 But I still love that smile in your eyes.


 Chorus:

          G       C            D
 Yes it's true, right from the start,

          C                       D
 I believed in the church of your heart.

          G         G         D
 Yes it's you that made me be part of

           C                       D
 and believe in the church of your heart.


 2nd Verse:

 Step inside, lay yourself down
 just for a while, rest for a while
 I can hear a thundering sound
 beating inside when you're around.
 It's been so long since I first met you,
 since we made love, you know how time flies.

 Chorus:


 Yes it's true, right from the start,
 I believed in the church of your heart.
 Yes it's you that made me be part of
 and believe in the church of your heart.
 In the church of your heart.

 Solo:

                                ^^^^
 This phrase is repeated, with the indicated bit
 changed slightly. I'd really have to get a better
 recording to tell what it is, though.

 Then these slightly heavier chords:

 B B B D xx A
 B B B D xx A

 The xx being muted.

 The last choruses are shifted up by a whole tone:

          A       D            E
 Yes it's true, right from the start,

          D                       E
 I believed in the church of your heart.

          A         D         E
 Yes it's you that made me be part of

           D                       E
 and believe in the church of your heart.


 And the song ends on:

 B B B D xx A
 B B B D xx A

Fading like a flower


Roxette - Fading Like A Flower (Every Time You Leave)

Trans. Ben Sinclair (ssusncla+rdg.ac.uk)

 A#
[Verse 1]

In a time where the sun descends alone
I ran a long long way from home
To find a heart that's made out of stone
I will try, I just need a little time
To get your face right out of my mind
To see the world through different eyes...

[Chorus]

 F          A#             D     C
Every time I see you oh I try to hide away
 F  G  A  A#                 C         F
But when we meet it seems I can't let go
 F              A#               D        C             A# *  C
Every time you leave the room I feel I'm fading like a flower

 I once new a girl I can't remember her name
 But I remember her face cos her sister looked the same.

 They both left school, but they couldn't find a job
 So they said farewell and stole a small town car.

 C            A#m           G
 As they were riding by the beach some summer night
     C     A#m           G                                            F
 the radio shouted out one of those songs that might just change your life

 It went like this:

  D        G           A
 "Checkin' in checkin' out
  D      G            A               D            Bm
  Making love I like watching all your fireworks
            G                  A             E
  I like it when I light those stars in your eyes
            G       C        D
  Just like fireworks in the sky"

 Yes it did.


 Throwing some poems to the ports and docks
                                     D         C      G
 They were sleeping outdoors puching all their luck

 They sent me a letter full of pills and thrills
                                      D       C
 Then they both got rich and moved to Hollywood Hills.

 C             A#m           G
 Yea they made lots of money playing folk guitar
 C        A#m                 G                                 F
 Cos everywhere the boys went crazy just to hear these words of art:

 [CHORUS] as before,
 & harmonica solo: just play  D A D A throughout

  E        A           B
 "Checkin' in checkin' out   (take it to the sky)
  E      A            B               E            C#m
  Making love I like watching all your fireworks
            A                  B             F#
  I like it when I light those stars in your eyes
            A       D        E
  Just like fireworks in the sky"

 They're coming to get you
 They're coming to get you now   (right now)

Joyride

Intro: (assorted fairground-type noises)

   a      g/a    d/a     a                            g/a
Hello you fool I love you, c'mon join the joyride
 A

 Hit the road out of nowhere, had to jump in my car
 Be a rider in the love game, following the stars
 D                            Bm                       A
 Don't need no book of wisdom, I get no money-talk at all

 She has a train going downtown, she's got a club on the moon
 And she's telling all her secrets in a wonderful balloon
 D                              Bm                                 A
 She's the heart of the funfair, she got me whistling her private tune

       E     D             A
And it all begins where it ends
          E          D
And she's all my, my magic friend...

             A      G      D       A                         D
She says "Hello you fool I love you, c'mon join the joyride,
         A
Join the joyride"

She's a flower - I can paint her, she's a child of the sun
We're a part of this together, could never turn around and run
Don't need no fortune teller to know where my lucky love belongs, oh no.

Cause it all begins again when it ends
And we're all magic friends...

She says "Hello you fool I love you, c'mon join the joyride,
Join the joyride"
She says "Hello you fool I love you, c'mon join the joyride,
Be a joyrider"

I'll take you on a skyride, feeling like you're spellbound
 A5       A6   A5 A6   A5
Sunshine is a la-dy - rocks you like a baby

She says "Hello you fool I love you, c'mon join the joyride,
Join the joyride"
 [Next line is sung without guitar]
Hello you fool I love you, c'mon join the joyride, join the joyride
Hello, hello you fool I love you,
C'mon, c'mon join the joyride, be a joyrider

[Whistling]
............

The main guitar for the song is a heavily distorted electric - hence you've go
to play the song with lots of palm muting and avoid sloppiness or else it's
going to sound like a mess.

The riff going into the first verse is:
  +   +   +   +     +  +  +  +
 |-----------------|-------------|
 |-----------------|-------------|
 |----/6--/6---4p2-|-------------|
 |-----------------|-2-----------|

Play all that again, omitting the last two bars the second time.

The following is played for the pre-chorus ("And it all begins.."):

The fills from the first two verses are approximated in the next verse by synt
and acoustic twelve string guitar. The electric comes back in on "Don't need n
fortune teller".

The first 6 bars of the solo are doubled an octave above by synth. There's 4
things you could do about this:
a) Forget about it
b) Play it an octave up. This will be played something like this:
 +        +
 -10p9-------------
 --------10--------
 ----------11--12--
 ------------------
 ------------------
 ------------------
c) Get a friend to play it an octave up as above whilst you play the lower bit
d) Use an octave pedal or a pitch shifter set at an octave above. Don't forget
to turn it off after 6 bars, though

Go to sleep

 There's a shadow on the terrace,
 a snow dance for the living.
 There's heavy weather on the way,
 I heard it on the news.

 And life's a tough principal who won't reward the losers.
 Your name is on the tea-cup,
 there's nothing I can do.

                         F                   D            C
 But to wish you'd think about me before you go to sleep
                    A#                             F
 and I wish you the best there is before you go to sleep.

 There are tears without the colour,
 a million seas without water
 an ocean full of people
 where shattered hearts can go.

 And love's a golden ripple where answers are so simplee
 but the explanations are very hard to do.

                         F                   D            C
 And I wish you'd think about me before you go to sleep
                    A#                             F
 and I wish you the best there is before you go to sleep.

 (repeat intro riff until song ends)

 Go to sleep.

Small talk

Written by Per Gessle Trans. Ben Sinclair (ssusncla+rdg.ac.uk) 18/5/1995 It's not the chapters he reads when you're feeling low down. It's not the touch of his skin when you kiss him goodnight. C F C G It's not the money he spends when you want to buy a daydream. C F C G and not that miracle smile that makes the sky bright. C C It's not the way his hands behave when you turn out the light. [Chorus 1]: D G A G D G A G It's the small small small talk that makes it all happen. D G A G B A G B A Small small small talk that makes you want to fly, yes it does. D G D A It's not the way he beleives in you like a religeon. D G D A It's not the thrill that you get when he's holding you tight. D D It's not the way his eyes persuade you to stay the night.

 How it's played:

 [riff 1]

 1-2-3-4

 [riff 1] [riff 2]

 A
 Walking like a man, hitting like a hammer,
 she's a juvenile scam. Never was a quitter,
 tasty like a raindrop, she's got the look.
 Heavenly bound cause heaven's got a number
 when she's spinning me around, kissing is a colour,
 her loving is a wild dog, she's got the look.

 [riff 2]
               A                   A
 She's got the look. She's got the look.
                                                   A
 What in the world can make a brown-eyed girl turn blue.
                                          A
 When everything I'll ever do I'll do for you
           G           D
 and I go: la la la la la she's got the look.

 A
 Fire in the ice,
 naked to the T-bone is a lover's disguise.
 Banging on the head drum,
 shaking like a mad bull, she's got the look.

 [riff 2]

 A
 Swaying to the band,
 moving like a hammer, she's a miracle man.
 Loving is the ocean,
 kissing is the wet sand, she's got the look.

 Walking like a man, hitting like a hammer,
 she's a juvenile scam. Never was a quitter,
 tasty like a raindrop, she's got the look.

 And she goes: na na na na na na na na.


 The rest of the song is just choruses and riff 2's as required.

 The verses are mainly played on the bass, but a guitar can
 play: A C G if you like.

The rain

From: Carol Vorderman 

 Written by Per Gessle
 Trans. Ben Sinclair (ssusncla+rdg.ac.uk)

 Basically...
 For the intro and verses just play C and G
 Its a little more complicated than that but
 not much.


 I was raised the northern way
 and my farther had a northern name,
 I did my crying out in the pouring rain.
 And a season turned into another one,
 I found a heart bright like the morning sun.
 He touched my lips, so softly,
 with his fingertips.

 C                          C
 I've kept the rain falling down on me
         F             G
 all the time, all the time.
 C                          C
 I've kept the rain falling down on me
         F             G
 all the time, all the time.

Vulnerable

Words & Music by Per Gessle Trans. Vaclav Subrta (xsubv01+jms.vse.cz) [Verse 1] E g#m Everywhere I look I see her smile A Her absent-minded eyes f#m E And she has kept me wondering for so long B How this thing could go wrong E g#m It seems to me that we are both the same A Playing the same game f#m E But as darkness falls this true love falls apart C# Into a riddle of her heart [Chorus] F# F#* B C# She's so vulnerable, like china in my hands F# F#* B C# She's so vulnerable and I don't understand F# F#* B I could never hurt the one I love C# She's all I've got F# C# But she's so vulnerable F# Oh so vulnerable [Verse 2] Days like these no one should be alone No heart should hide away Her touch is gently conquering my mind There's nothing words can say She's coloured all the secrets of my soul I've whispered all my dreams But just as nighttime falls this vision falls apart Into a riddle of her heart [Chorus] She's so vulnerable ... Note: F# F#* e 5 5 B 6 5 G 5 5 D 4 4 A 4 4 E x x I don't know how to name the F#* chord (if you know it, please feel free to e-mail me) If you use a capo on 4th fret (it's the best way how to play it), you can play E like C, g#m like em, A like F, f#m like dm, B like G, C# like A and F# like D.
