[edit: I've changed all the "Hm" chords to "Bm". It's the same chord.]
[to all the danish readers it is an english Bm ;)]
C Bm
something tells me that I'm left without a chance
C
in my supicious attempts to get her close
Bm
enough to close my lips around her smile
now I can't close my eyes when she's around
C
she is around
Em D
passing like the wind that shapes the clouds
Bm C G
she is around, she is around
C Bm
I don't know how but suddenly it has been a while
C
and we've been walking in through that same front door
Bm
undressing like there were no parts to hide
and calling each other names we never had
C
you never heard
Em
and then an unexpected turn
D
and we hit the kerb
Bm C
a stupid term, a fatal word
Am
flutter girl
Em
killing me with her sunshine
D
sunshine
Am
she's so unaware
C Am G D
that she's my melpomene
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/k/kashmir/melpomene_crd_ver_2.html ]
C G/h
you broke the code
Am Em
just like I'm sure you always do
D C
without intentions but I know
Em D
that's how I broke away from you
Bm C
now that the clouds are obsolete
G Am
I hope you landed on your feet
Em
without those evil demons
Bm
keeping you reminded of...
C G/h
the war's they pulled us through
Am Em
as fragile hearts ran short of glue
D C
as we're both running out of time
Em D
and seek to drown the fact in wine
Bm C
it should be honest and naïve
G Am
like we should give, we should receive
Em
I must be jaded fading
Bm Am
out of function into solitude
---Solo--
Am
flutter girl
Em
killing me with her sunshine
D
sunshine
Am
she's so unaware
C Am G D
that she's my melpomene
Am
flutter girl
Em
killing me with her sunshine
D
sunshine
Am
she's so unaware
C Am G D
that she's my melpomene
Note that in the second part of the B-part, "the war's they..." you have
to "play" a little around with the chords the get the right sound. If I have
the time, I'll post some tabs for that and maybe the solo.
Cheers, GWiZ.
