guitar chords lyrics
Dot Hacker-The Wit Of The Staircase
Another great song from Dot Hacker.
The song almost doesn't have the guitar in it,
but I transcribed the piano to guitar chords
Intro:
Am E7 x4
Verse:
Am E7
I said my 'goodbyes' didn't I?
Am E7
Seemed so ideal to the outside
Am E7
Burning and tying on
Am E7
I should have said it before I....
Chorus:
C
Before I'd gone,
E7
Before I'd gone,
F G Am Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Am Am
That's the wit of the staircase.
Verse:
Am E7
Shouldn't have left me alone
Am E7
Winchester type paranoid
Am E7
Atlantic ocean that's your mind
Am E7
I should have said it before I...
Chorus:
C
Before I'd gone,
E7
Before I'd gone,
F G Am Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Am Am
That's the wit of the staircase.
Bridge:
Am F
Play it calm in time we will fall in love
Am F
Play it calm in time we will fall in love
Am F
Play it calm in time we will fall in love
Am F
Forever forever forever....
Then:
C E7 F E7
Yeah,yeah
F G Am Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Am
They'll find me, they'll find me when I wash up...
Then a bit instrumental:
G A x2
G
They're out there
Am
I've seen them out there
Gm
I'm not crazy, I'm not...
A
Not crying wolf, I'm....
G
I'm not crazy, I'm not...
A
I see them out there
B
in the real world
C
out my window
E F#
They're already in my head now
G#m F# E
behind my eyes.
Outro:
Am F x4
Play until the end:
F
The End
