Tuning: Half-step down (Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb)
Prefab Sprout
Lions in My Own Garden (Exit Someone) (1982)
(McAloon)
The beautiful debut by one of my favourite bands:
Prefab Sprout�s first single.
This tab sounds pretty original. That is because it is mostly a
transcription of a tab by the songwriter Paddy McAloon himself:

The original is not very readable, so I tried to improve it in
this respect and added some notes to the chords to make it
sound good when played alone without a band.
The song has been reissued on: �38 Carat Collection�

CHORDS/SPECIAL VOICINGS
I had to give names to some of these chords which was not always easy,
as they are rather idiosyncratic. Who has got better ideas? �
I�m open for suggestions.

INTRO
| C#m | D7/9 | C#m | D7/9 |
A E [ch]Amaj7/F#[/ch]
Hey, I'm sorry if I go too fast
A6/-5 E [ch]Amaj7/F#[/ch]
Tonight, let's pretend that this will last
B C#m7 D7/9 [ch]F#sus4/G#[/ch]
I've got a dream you would like to sleep on too
A E [ch]Amaj7/F#[/ch]
Oh, I'm sorry to dwell on the past
A6/-5 E [ch]Amaj7/F#[/ch]
I'd better say nothing at all
B C#m7 D7/9 [ch]F#sus4/G#[/ch]
But I've got this friend who thinks he's in love with you
A E/G# B/C#
And it doesn't sum it up to say he's singing the blues
A E/G# B/C#
And whoever learnt to walk in somebody else's shoes?
A E/G# B(add11)/C#
He's screaming because he's found something to lose
A G#m7 B F#m
So you're living in Eden where, apples are good
A G#m7 B F#m
But every narrow miracle, takes place on Earth
C#m G#m7 B F#m
Yes, the militia've arrived and the percussion has come
Amaj7 [ch]G#m7/F#[/ch] B* C#m D7/9
And I�m pounding out messages loud on the drum
Amaj7 [ch]G#m7/F#[/ch] B* C#m D7/9
The rumours have started that we are both young
Amaj7 [ch]G#m7/F#[/ch] B* C#m D7/9
Lions in my own garden, exit someone
B C#m7 D7/9 [ch]F#sus4/G#[/ch]
That's what I'll shout when you just stay out of reach
A E/G# B/C#
And it doesn't sum it up to say he's singing the blues
A E/G# B/C#
And whoever learnt to walk in somebody else's shoes?
A E/G# B(add11)/C#
He's screaming because he's found something to lose
A E/G# B/C#
And it doesn't sum it up to say he's singing the blues
A E/G# B/C#
And whoever learnt to walk in somebody else's shoes?
A E/G# B(add11)/C#
He's screaming because he's found something to lose
Amaj7 [ch]G#m7/F#[/ch] B* C#m D7/9
And I�m pounding out messages loud on the drum
Amaj7 [ch]G#m7/F#[/ch] B* C#m D7/9
The rumours have started that we are both young
Amaj7 [ch]G#m7/F#[/ch] B* C#m
Lions in my own garden, exit someone
