The Teardrop Explodes


Tom: D

    D               A
But I can`t see you buying,
A                 Em
Love a dream of a love affair,
       D              A
That`s over, past and crying.


[Verse 1]
A              Em
Celebrate, the great escape,
     D         A
From lunacy divided,
A             Em
Hunnanoo, I'm seeing you,
    D          A
But nobodys decided.


[Verse 2]
  Bm                    G
A sound that`s drifting out from you,
         Bm               G
When the love has boiled away,
        Bm                  G
Colours shape and there are things that need,
  D                   B
A beating heart not a cheating heart,
      E
But a cheating heart, is still a beating heart.
E
I believe in you today.


[Interlude]
A   Em  D  A
A   Em  D  A


[Verse 3]
A                Em
My life see`s me wandering,
D                A
Lost in smiles forever,
A             Em
Erase my mind see what I find,
D            A
Axes dream together.


[Verse 4]
         D                         B
I`ve got all sleeps secrets hidden in my bag,
      E
But a lot are leaving 'cos their not believing,
E
That you could ever do that thing,
E
And never bring yourself to sing,

That`s over, cast and flying.


[Verse 5]
A              Em
Celebrate the great escape,
D              A
Carry my soul away,
A                 Em
From sufferance intolerance,
D             A
Leaving you today.
