Hopper
From 2017 A Kind Revolution

[Verse 1]
C             F
In late night bars There ghost of Hopper
C             F
Paints such melancholy colours
C             F            C     F
With sullen neon lights
C             F
In late night bars The ghost of Hopppers
C                   F
Speaks in whispers Only he can hear
C                  F
Smiles like a lion Sighs like a lamb
C               F
Dreams in muted symphonies

[Bridge]
Cm                                G
And while you’re waiting For your change
G#     A#            Gm    D
In a diamond in the rain

[Verse 2]
C             F
In late night bars The whims of Hopper
C                              F
Wonders where all the people go When the light goes down
C                 F
Answers all your questions With a gesture
C                F
Don’t care where he’s goin to

[Horn Instrumental]

C  F x3

Cm                   G
In a diamond in the rain
G#           A#                 Gm      D
While you’re waiting for your change

[Verse 3]
C                    F
I’m sat in a corner I’m merged with the wall
C                          F
Become part of the painting No point fighting it all
C                F                    C     F
I’m quite relaxed It’s frightning me.
