This is how I play this song. It's very basic but sounds okay. The middle eight is
slightly wrong (the Dm part) but it works okay. PM me with any improvements if you want.
song this, Bell X1 did it again with another fine album of fantastic songs. Enjoy.
Thanks to Kelsey for the help ;-)
Intro: C F
[C]She was only just a girl in a picture
But he thought 'If I can only make her [F]smile
Then she'd be mine'
[C]He'd folded it, refolded it so many times,
He'd already lost some of her to the [F]creases
Precious pieces
[C]He wondered how close he'd ever been to her,
In this ebb and flow of the distance be[F]tween us
Maybe she got the same bus
[C]And he left a trail of string wherever he went
When he was sleeping, he tied it to his[F] toe
If she crossed it then he'd know
But he [G]knew
That all was un[F]ravelling
And he was b[G]are
Stripped of his[F] skin[G]
Like the ribs of a broken umbre[F]lla
Sticking out of a b[C]in
Do do do do do-do do do do do do-do
[F]Do do do do do-do do do do do do-do
He'[C]d pull his collar up against the wind,
Against those who said that trying was the first step to [F]failing
Oh he was railing[C]
And filled with new found purpose and pride,
He'd make something of this heady g[F]low
Now where would she go?
But what do I [G]know
Cos all is un[F]ravelling
And he was [G]bare
Stripped of his[F] skin[G]
Like the ribs of a broken umbre[F]lla
Sticking out of a b[C]in
Do do do do do-do[Am]
[G] [Dm] [C] [Dm]
[G]But he [Am]knew how to fix it, Dear Liza, Dear Liza
[G] [Dm] [C] [Dm]
[G]With time's great elixir, Dear Liza, Dear Liza
[C]She was only just a girl in a picture,
But he thought 'If I could only make her [F]smile,
Then she'd be mine'[C]
Oh the thought of being faced with her
Gave him the fear and sometimes in the morning a [F]tent
Oh lord give him strength
Cos he k[G]new
That all was un[F]ravelling
And he was b[G]are
He was stripped of his[F] skin
Yeah he k[G]new
That all was un[F]ravelling
And he was b[G]are
He was stripped of his[F] skin[G]
Like the ribs of a broken umbre[F]lla
Sticking out of a b[C]in
Do do do do do-do do do do do do[F]-do
Do do do do d-do do do do do do-do.
