Mark Knopfler - Kill to Get Crimson Album Tab by Foma' fffoma@gmail.com ___________________________________________________________________________ 1 - True Love Will Never Fade Tuning: Standart Capo: No C / F / Dm / G C / F / Dm / G
True love will never fCade F True love will never fDmade G True love will never fCade F True love will never fDmade G True love will never fCade
I wonder if there's no forFever No walking hand in hCand Down a yellow brick rDmoad G To never never land C
These days I get to where I'm gFoing Make it there eventuallCy Follow the trail of brDmeadcrumbs G To where I'm meant to bFe G To where I'm meant to bCe
I don't know what brought you to mFe That was up to yCou There's so many come to sDmee me G Who want their own tattCoo
I fixed a needle in a hFolder Laid my hand upon your spCine And there upon your shDmoulder G I drew the picture as your sCign
When I think abDmout us G I see the picture that we mCade Am The picture to remFind us G True love will never fFade G True love will never fCade F True love will never fDmade G True love will never fCade
C / F / F / C / C / Dm / G / C
I worked the rowdies and dFaytrippers Now and then I think of yCou Any which way we're all shDmufflin' G Forward in the qCueue
They like to move my operFation They like to get me off the pCier And I dream I'm on a stDmeamer G Pullin' out of hCere
When I think abDmout us G I see a picture that we mCade Am The picture to remFind us G True love will never fFade G True love will never fCade F True love will never fDmade G True love will never fCade F True love will never fDmade G True love will never fCade F
