Above The Clouds Acoustic Chords
Paul Weller - Above The Clouds
Paul Weller
1992
This is based on the acoustic version which was played on Later with
Jools Holland in 2001: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzgh4JZf-R0
Towards the end of the chorus and during the Coda there's a chord I
can't quite work out, I play it as a B7 which sounds okay but Paul plays
something else. Not sure what though. F#m/B or Bsus4 (x244xx) sound okay as
well. If you can work it out let me know so I can adjust the tab.
Chords:
Emaj7 (076444) Emaj7* (xx999-11)
Amaj7 (x07654) Emaj7** (xx9897)
F#m7 (242222)
G#m7 (464444)
B7 (x2120x) or F#m/B (x242xx)
C#m (x46654)
A (577655)
B (799877)
When playing Emaj7 you'll want to hit the low E string twice before playing
it so something like this:
e-----------------4---------------------------------------------|
B-----------------4---------------------------------------------|
G-----------------4---------------------------------------------|
D-----------------6---------------------------------------------|
A-----------------7---------------------------------------------|
E-------0----0----0---------------------------------------------|
Also the last three chords in the outro goes something like this:
e------11-------7-------4---------------------------------------|
B------9--------9-------4h5p4-----------------------------------|
G------9--------8-------4---------------------------------------|
D------9--------9-------6---------------------------------------|
A-----------------------7---------------------------------------|
E-----------------------0---------------------------------------|

Barely stopping like my thoughts.

Verse 2: Through the windows of a train,
Emaj7 Amaj7 Emaj7 Emaj7* Emaj7**
I caught reflections of a paper cup,
Emaj7 Amaj7 Emaj7 Amaj7
Hanging small in a pale blue sky,
Emaj7 Amaj7 Emaj7
Never knowing which way's up.
F#m7 (F#m7) G#m7
Chorus 2: Above the clouds,
F#m7 (F#m7) G#m7
What's to be found?,
F#m7 (F#m7) G#m7 F#m7 B7
I have to wonder, ooh
Emaj7 Amaj7 Emaj7
will I be around?
C#m F#m7
Bridge : As my anger shouts, at my own self doubt,
C#m F#m7
So a sadness creeps, into my dreams,
C#m F#m7
When you're scared of living, but afraid to die,
A B B
I get scared of giving and I must find the faith to beat it,
Emaj7 Amaj7 Emaj7
Oh yeh, yeh yeh yeh.
