None of them
This has always been one of my favourite Julian Cope songs; simple and yet affecting. Originally done on some kind of synthesiser(s) I guess, but nice to play on a guitar. Key of C (mainly, but with Eb thrown in to keep it interesting.) Intro C Dm (x4) Verse 1 (Each line of the verse follow this progression. Listen for timing.) C Dm Em Dm Half the time as I sit in disarray I am thinking of a dream I never had Then I awake, and for a while I call your name in Colin’s house But tiny children have a way of falling down Interlude 1 Eb Dm Oh, I could make a meal Eb Dm Of that wonderful despair I feel Eb Dm G But waking up I turn and face the wall Verse 2 (Each line of the verse follow this progression. Listen for timing.) C Dm Em Dm The car arrives and takes me back again Drifting through imaginary planes And fighting men aboard a raft A sailing ship has run aground And confidence is valued in these days Interlude 2 Eb Dm But each character Eb Dm Is plundering my home Eb Dm G And taking everything that is my own Interlude 3 (Repeat this next section twice) Dm C Oh no, I’m not sure about Dm C Those things that I care about Dm C G Oh no, I’m not sure, not any more... (Repeat the verse progression to fade….) C Dm Em Dm Repeating Melody (I can't be bothered writing out all the tab, but that should be enough to get you going…)
