Capo: 4 Tuning: E A D G B E
The Proclaimers - Throw the 'R' Away from their first album "This is the Story" By Doom Drew NOTE: I learned this purely by listening so I would appreciate any corrections that may be appropriate. Also there is one particular chord which I (using online chord identifier) identified as Emaj7sus4. The chord looks like this... It is much simpler than the name suggests. e|----------| B|----------| G|--2-------| D|--1-------| A|--2-------| E|----------| Capo 4 [Intro] E A E Emaj7sus4 (x2)
EI've been so Asad Since Amyou said my accent was Ebad EHe's wearin' a fArown This CAmaledonian cElown
I'm Ejust going to have to learn to Ahesitate Am Am7 Emaj7sus4 E To make sure my words On your Saxon ears don't grate But EI wouldn't know a single Aword to say Am Am7 Emaj7sus4 E If I flattened all the vowels And threw the 'R' away
ESome days I Astand OAmn your green aEnd pleasant land EHow Adare I show face WheAmn my dictioEn is such a disgrace
I'm Ejust going to have to learn to Ahesitate Am Am7 Emaj7sus4 E To make sure my words On your Saxon ears don't grate But EI wouldn't know a single Aword to say Am Am7 Emaj7sus4 E If I flattened all the vowels And threw the 'R' away
EYou say that if E7I want to get ahead AThe language I Am7use should be left for dead E Emaj7sus4 E It doesn't please your ear EAnd though you E7tell it like a leg-pull AIt seems you're Am7still full of John Bull E Emaj7sus4 E You just refuse to hear
EOh what can I Ado TAmo be undersEtood by you EPerhapsA for some money IAm could talk like a Ebee dripping honey.
