Kate Bush - A Coral Room chords

Highlighted       Show chord diagrams
"A Coral Room"
By Kate Bush
From "Aerial" (2005)

Perhaps the saddest, most poetic song she has ever written. (Stunning (and 
difficult) chord progressions- as goes for the rest of the album's songs)



Intro:    C#m7    A6   F#m11    B/D#    C#m    Badd9


                 C#m         A      A6     F#m11    B/D#        
There's a city, 
 
                    F#m11         B/D#
draped in net

                     F#m11     Eadd9       B/D#      
Fisherman net

C#                               B      Badd9     A
And in the half light, 

                                Am7
in the half light

                                  C#m7          A          A6         F#m11          B/D#
It looks like every tower

                      F#m11          Eadd9           B/D#
Is covered in webs

F#m               E                 B/D#
Moving and glistening and rocking

F#m                           E
      Its babies in rhythm

      B/D#                      F#m 
As the spider of time is climbing

E                             B/D#   
    Over the ruins


F#m9      G#m7/D#     Amaj7#11    Amaj7

                   F#m9   F#m7    F#m7add11   Eadd11   E
There were hundreds of people living here

Badd11/D#   B13/D#   B7add11/D#   Badd11/D#   B7add11/D#
Sails at the windows

B13/D#           A                      Amaj7        B
And the planes came crashing down

      F#m9    F#m7  F#m9      Eadd9    E
And many a pilot drowned

Eadd11   Badd11/D#   B13/D#    B7add11/D#   Badd11/D#    B7add11/D#
And the speed boats flying above

             Aadd9                                       B
Put your hand over the side of the boat

C#m11
And what do you feel?


       C#m7      F#m7     F#m11     B/D#     
My mother 

                                     F#m11       Eadd9    B/D#
and her little brown jug

                    F#m7         Eadd9       B/D#
It held her milk

                      F#m        E                  B/D#
And now it holds our memories
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/k/kate-bush/243570.html ]
                             F#m7          Eadd9     Badd11/D#     B/D#      
I can hear her singing

F#m7/C#                                             Eadd9/B
“Little brown jug don't I love thee”

Esus2/D#                                              
“Little brown jug don't I love thee”

F#m7   F#m9       F#m7    Eadd9/F#
Ho ho ho, 

F#m7      B
hee hee hee
 
B                      B6   B     B6  B7   B          C#m11     Emaj7     C#m11    Emaj9
(Little brown jug don't I love thee)

B6/D#            B6/F#   B7/F#   F#m7add11    E/G#    Aadd9   
(Little brown jug don't I love thee)


Badd11     Aadd9    E/G#     F#m9    F#m7

   Eadd9/G#    F#m7/A    Badd11    F#m7/A
I hear her laughing

Eadd9/G#  A9   Emaj7/B   Amaj7   Badd11   
She is standing in the kitchen

      F#m7   Amaj7   Emaj/B    Aadd9
As we come in the back door

          C#m          Amaj7
See it fall

            F#m9      F#m     F#m9   B/D#    B7/D#
See it fall

                F#m  E                 B/D#
Oh little spider climbing out of a broken jug


F#m9     F#m7     E     Eadd9    B/D#    G#m7/D#

  
F#m7         F#m9              F#m7         E      Eadd9
 And the pieces will lay there a while 

        Badd11/D#   B13/D#    B7add11/D#    Badd11/D#
In a house draped in net

   B13/D#   F#m7/A   F#m7add11   Badd11   B13
In a room filled with coral

F#m7    F#m9    F#m7    E    Eadd11    E     Badd11/D#
Sails at the window

B13/D#     B7add11/D#     Badd11/D#    B7add11/D#
Forests of masts

Badd11/D#    F#m7add11/A    F#madd11/A     F#m7add11/A     Badd9    Badd11
Put your hand over the side of the boat

               F#m9               Badd11/D#              Badd9
Put your hand over the side of the boat

                                          B11/D#
And what do you feel?
