Admiral Fallow // Boots Met My Face // Subbuteo (Chords)
Chords are 100% correct and are in the same key as in the album.
In the song the 'Louis' plays the guitar in a arpeggio style which can be slightly
similar to the song and is played by picking the chord notes.
E: 022100
C#m: x46654
B: 224442
B7: 224242
A: x02220
Verse 1:
E
Hello, my chum
C#m
It's me and I'm banging on your door
B
It's been far too long
A
Since we set the leaves alight down on the floor
E
I've returned for a while
C#m
To the concrete that once claimed my knees
B
And the stones my hands owned
A
As I sent them toward windows and trees
Middle 8:
F#m
Towering trees
B - B7 - E
Towering trees
Verse: 2
E
There are bangers in the wheely bins
C#m
Lazer pens shone through the glass
B
And BB after BB fired
A
From behind the wall beyond the grass
E
And though boots met my face
C#m
And knuckles cracked me black as coal
B
I care not for the mindless
A
Who poked fear at my sorry soul
Middle 8:
F#m
My soul
B - B7
My soul
Verse 3:
E
And I miss the rain on the roof
C#m
Pitstop paths and whistling streams
B
I miss the Coldstream chips
A
The red subbuteo team painted green
E
Built on back fields,
C#m
It seemed a thorn in my child side
B
Instead became a grit-soaked playground
A
Where the propers and the poor collide
Bridge:
E
Oh, it might sound dull
C#m
But dull's sometimes all we have
B
Yeah, it might sound dull
A
But dull's all we ever have
Refrain:
E
Sometimes I talk with the meter
C#m
Of a bingo caller's east-end drawl
B
Who cares; we're all just trying to float
B A
While everything seems set to fall
Middle 8:
F#m
So hard
B - B7
So hard
Ending is based around the main chords. To achieve end drum effect play 'C#m' once
then into fret noise in time with the drum.
