From: Fred Maslin <fmaslin@netcom.com> Subject: /j/jam/the_place_i_love.crd (improved) The Place I Love Paul Weller of the Jam >From "All Mod Cons" This is the improved version: new words and chord fix courtesy of Davide Musiani <reti023@didasun1.cineca.it> The opening riff is kinda like: E -|--------------------- B -|--------------------- G -|--------------------- D -|--------------------- A -|--------7-5-7-5------ E -|---5-5----------7---- Repeated 8 times. Then it goes into an A B E progression. 1 bar A, 1 bar B, two bars E. I play it kind of ska-like because I can't quite get the chunk-a-chunka rhythm from the record. Play the progression twice and then over the verses.

^A Th^Be place ^CI love is a million miles away. ^A It's ^Btoo far fo^Cr the eye to see. ^Bm St^Eill it'^As me at le^F#mast, and you can't come there. ^A No one i^Bs allowed at a^Cll. ^Bm On^Ely animals that ^Alove, will^F#m always, only ever could be. ^A And it's al^Bways in the back of my mi^End.

(riff 4 times)

^A The place I ^Blove is overgrown n^Eow, ^A with beautiful ^Bmoss and colorful ^Eflowers. ^Bm And goldfish ^Ethat swim in a^A pool,^F#m theres a small brick wall ^A With neon lig^Bhtings controlled by ^Elightning. ^Bm I'm makin' a s^Etand against the world ^A There's those that would h^F#murt us if they heard. ^A And it's a^Blways in the back of my m^Eind.

^A The place I l^Bove is nowhere near ^Ehere. ^A Not within a ^Byard of the trendy d^Eo's ^Bm Where dogsbodies p^Eick you up, ^A and gra^F#mciously give you a lift ^A with cherished th^Boughts and bittern^Eess. ^Bm I'm makin' a st^Eand against the world ^A There's those that would h^F#murt us if they heard. ^A And it's a^Blways in the back of my m^Eind.
