I haen't seen any attempts to figure this one out, so I figured I'd give it a stab.
is one of my favorites off one of my favorite Duran albums, Big Thing. I don't think I've
seen such odd chords/key changes before, but here goes!!
Intro: Hold the note Bb - it interchanges between Bb and G#. (low E string 6th fret and
E string 4 fret) The whole beginning part is basically single notes rather than chords
written that way. The chords are tough to pick out, (they are probably Bb and G# but
are too hard to hear!)
BbShe lays on the wall
watching the strangers drift away
mid-day's oBbre--thG#ick
with the sun of Arabia
she sBburrenders her vG#oices
Bbthey gather, on the wind
talkin, chanting, breathing
C#-F-Bb-C#
into her body...yesterday
F - C# - (C#-D# - E - F#) (walkup)
Awakened Bbbeside
G#the scent of burnt Bbsugar--on the skin
painting eyesG#--thick
Bbwith the color she brings in
Bboh, and sure and strong
when the lightning tumbles down
don't you frown
everything will be
in time for this evening
