Chord/Tab song: Big Dreams and the Headlines

Tabbed by syphaxe
Chords are accurate, 3/4 time but Simone's vocal cadence/syncopation is wonderfully tricky

[[intro]]
[C] [E]


[[verse i]]

[C]If you stay a while I promise I'll find a happy song to s[E]ing - La dee da

[C]And it's dark, but I can see in the dark and you're s[E]miling

[C]Oooooh, don't go yet, don't be upset - it's a sw[E]eet evening

[F]And we'll go inside and light a fire and have a laugh and have a cry[Fm]

It's the little things that add up to li[C]fe

[(C)]10,000 moments of paradi[E]se

Lost between the big d[F]reams and the headlines[Fm]




[[verse ii]]

[C]I can't help you quit the b[E]lues

[C]The lonely and the heartache and the b[E]ad bad news

[C]Oooooh you still gotta pay t[E]he rent

[F]And all those years - w[Fm]here they went

[C]I don't care you've been, how you ma[E]de your enemies and lost your friends

[C]Or how'd you missed those lucky breaks and how - how ever[E]ything is just a big mis[F]take

[F]'cause you've come all this way, I kno[Fm]w it's hard - won't you stay

[C]All I can promise you is that [Dm]tomorrow - it's a brand ne[F]w day[Fm]



[[verse iii]]

[C]10,000 moments of p[E]aradise

Lost between the big d[F]reams and the headlines[Fm]

[(C)]If you stay a while I promise I'll find a happy song to s[(E)]ing - La dee da

[(C)]And it's dark, but I can see in the dark and you're s[(E)]miling

[C]Noooooh, don't go yet, don't be upset - it's a s[E]weet evening

[F]And we'll go inside and light a fire and have a laugh and have a cry[Fm]

It's the little things that add up to life[C]





[[Smurfette chorus]]

[C]La da d[E]a da daaaaah [C]dahh

[C]La da d[E]a da daaaaah [C]dahh
