Patience of Angels (Boo Hewerdine)


----------------------------------


Written & performed by Boo Hewerdine, but I don't know of a recording of it by
him. Eddi Reader has recorded it, it's on her first album (called Eddi
Reader!)

From the [G]top of the [D]bus she [C]thought she saw him [D]wave
she saw Tuesdays and forgetfulness and a little money saved
Does she know ? I don't know but from here I can tell

(Chorus):
That it would [G]try [D] the patience of a[C]ngels[D]
it would try the patience of angels

And you k[G]now something's [D]wrong when the [C]morning hurts your e[D]yes
by singing them an octave higher
than the rest.

Chords are standard (open) fingerings.

This G D C D stuff is a bit of an oversimplification. Live, there seems to be
some melody going on on the top two strings, but I haven't worked out what
he's doing. Still, this should be enough to carry the tune in the
Underground/Subway!

Boo plays this live in Db (capo at 6th fret), Eddi Reader's album version is
in Bb (capo 3), I can't get above B (Capo 4) if I'm going to hit the next
octave in the vocal- just play it in as high a key as you can.

Also, if it's quiet you can try an arpeggio intro:



E ----------3------------------2----------------0---------------2-----

B ------------3--------------2---3----------------1-----------2---3---
