Subject: Re: REQ: Concrete Blonde!
I have been trying to work out some songs and I posted a few a while ago,
If you or anyone else out there could help me work some stuff out that
would be cool (the chords to the chorus of Rain would be cool. I know
the intro) Failing that, just tell me any favourites and if I know them
I'll send them to you
Heres one for today off 'FREE'. This is what I posted a while ago,
I think I would like to add to it a little but that will have to wait
LITTLE CONVERSATIONS by Concrete Blonde
-------------------- off the album FREE
transcribed by ericb@ecr.mu.oz.au
Heres a song I think sounds pretty good on an accoustic
I show in tab how to play the C-G-Am pattern in the verses
Use your ring finger to do the C and G bass notes in the Am part
I used to think he only was playing C bass notes but I gave it
another listen to last night and I think he throws the odd
G-bass note in
I'm not too sure about the fills but theyre close enough to
keep me happy.
verse rhythm
C G Am

The lCittle cGonversAmation, was Cover vGery sAmoon
And I wCatch in GadmirAmation from my cForner of the rGoom
And tChey shinGe on me wAmith starry eyes
And Cthey raiGn a frienAmdly storm
Like kCids arGound a chAmristmas tree
And then Fyou smile all niceG and warm
These lFittle conversGations, if I tCry my very bAmest
F G C Am (fill 1)
You know I never could say anything in 20 words or less
SoFmewhere sometime dGown the line, somedCay I may confAmess
and telFl you all, Gthats all
The little conversations on me are very rough
They leave me all in pieces
You know theres never time enough
Its like a book with missing pages
A story incomplete
Its like a painting left unfinished
It feels like not enough to eat - starving..
You know these little conversations
Well for me they'll never do
Now what am I supposed to do
With broken sentences of you
I'll stay in my corner
Cos thats all that I can do
Let the others think for me
LFittle conversGations are CweAm
i C G Am C G Am
Are we C G Am
