French Films - Escape In The Afternoon
Brilliant song by young fins French Films from their debut album "Imaginary Future".
Very easy to play and nice to sing along on a cosy sunny afternoon while the sun
is sinking ;) Perfect record for spring and summertime!
Have fun!
Intro:
synth is playing A, guitar kicks in (about 0:17) with A as well
Verse:
Oh [A]take me anywhere [D]you could
Imagine and [A]faithfully I will [E]break the prison I [A]was born in
Oh [A]take me anywhere the [D]sun shines
Away the [A]harms of man[E]kind off my[A] shoulders
Refrain:
'[D]Cause anything that we were meant to be
Was [A]lost but I want to escape in the after[D]noon
To see the youth run through my[A] hands
1st bridge:
[A] [E] Some[A]times[E] I m[A]iss
E A E (listen carefully to get the pattern)
My old friends in my home town

Verse:
But don't [A]take me anywhere [D]it makes me
To dream [A]about a life w[E]ithout a past w[A]ith you
Refrain:
'[D]Cause anything that we were meant to be
Was [A]lost but I want to escape in the after[D]noon
To see the youth run through my[A] hands
And [D]anything that we were said to be
Was [A]ruled in the juvenile grey industry [D]mind
Now do you see yourself tha[A]t way
2nd Bridge + Solo
D A D A (2x, 2nd guitar plays the solo)
Hu[D]huuhuhu Hu[A]huuhuhu Hu[D]huuhuhu Hu[A]huuhu
Refrain:
When [D]everything they wanted to be
The [A]better people on a map of turning [D]backs
Oh I'd just like to try to [A]breathe
'[D]Cause anything that we were meant to be
Was [A]lost and I want to escape in the after[D]noon
To see the youth run through my[A] hands
[D] To see the youth run through my[A] hands
D A end with continuing slapping A
To see the youth run through my hands
