Xtc - The ballad of peter (chords)

Here it is, long awaited (?) and hopefully accurate. Some notes: (1) I figured this out without having the tape player going, so though the chord pattern is accurate (pretty much all I-IV-V) I've put this in the key of G, which may be different from that on the album. The important thing is that _I_ can sing it in this key. So there. Seriously, though, transposing this would not be a big deal. (2) There is a surprise A chord (or II chord, made major) in the last chorus. I really feel like there is another "surprise" chord in the rest of the choruses, but I can't quite put a finger on it (ha, ha). The way I've printed it here sounds pretty good, though. ------------------------------- The Ballad of Peter Pumpkinhead ------------------------------- by Andy Partridge Album: XTC "Nonsuch" ------------------------------- Peter Pumpkinhead pulled them all Emptied churches and shopping malls When he spoke it would raise the roof Peter Pumpkinhead told the truth (CHORUS) Peter Pumpkinhead put to shame Governments who would slur his name Plots and sex scandals failed outright Peter merely said, "Any kind of love is all all right" (CHORUS) Peter Pumpkinhead was too good Had him nailed to a chunk of wood He died grinning on live TV Hanging there he looked a lot like you, and an awful lot like me!
