The Night I Heard Caruso Sing chords and lyrics - EVERYTHING BUT THE GIRL

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[C]The highlands and the low[G]lands
Are the [F]roots my [C]father knows
The holidays at [G]Oban
An[C]d the towns around Mont[F]rose
But even as he [C]sleeps
They're loading [G]bombs into the hills
And the [Am]waters in the [G]lochs
Can run [F]deep but never still
[G][C]

[Verse 2]
I've thought of having [G]children
But I've [F]gone and changed [C]my mind
It's hard [G]enough to watch the news
Let [C]alone explain it to a [F]child
To cast your eye 'cross [C]nature
[Am]Over [G]fields of rape and corn
And [Am]tell him without [G]flinching
Not to [F]fear where he's been born
[Dm][G][F][G][Dm][G][F][Dm][G]

[Verse 3]
[C]
Then someone sat [G]me down last night
And [F]I heard Caruso s[C]ing
He's almost as good as [G]Presley
And if [C]I only d[G]o one t[F]hing
I'll sing songs [C]to my father
I'll sing [G]songs to my child
It's [Am]time to hold [G]your loved ones
While [F]the chains are loosed and the world
[C]Runs wild

[Interlude 1]
[G][F][C]
[G][C][F]

[Verse 4]
And even as we [C]speak
They're loading [G]bombs
onto a white train
[Am]How can we aff[G]ord to ever [F]sleep
So [C]sound [G]again[C]
