Artist: Yves Klein Blue Song: Gin Sling Album: Ragged & Ecstatic (2009) Tabbed by: Cambell Doyle E-mail: cambelldoyle@hotmail.com Tuning: Standard A Closer to death Bm Been many miles since we last met E F#m D A Still, it seems like I stood still as time passed by A That year my pride did sting Bm 'Cause for a young man, it's a terrible thing E F#m D A To realise for the first time that his mother was right Bm F#m D A Oh this old gin sling will keep me satisfied Bm F#m D A Ah yeah, the cold air won't blow and I can close my eyes A Ah she came to me Bm Her eyes full of sorrow and empty of sleep E F#m D A And asked how it seemed I'd been doing alright (and I laughed) A It was a trick that she taught me Bm I drink so that I sleep without having dreams E F#m D A And when I wake up in the morning, oh it is all I can do to survive Bm F#m D A Oh this old gin sling keeps me satisfied Bm F#m D A Though it hurts me more than I know and takes away my mind F#m D A E Oh but the closer I get to home, fills me with dread just to know [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/y/yves-klein-blue/360109.html ] F#m D A I'll be alone with a bottle on the shelf All right... A Bm E F#m D A A Bm E F#m D A But I put it down, just as soon as I realised D A F#m Oh that the hard times, they don't get better D A F#m When life goes in the shadows of memories F#m E The dark times make it hard to remember D A All the reasons the good times ended D A F#m We remain where others cannot dwell D A F#m It's not our place to fall where they fell F#m E A Do you really think that makes anyone happy but yourself? Bm F#m D A Oh this old gin sling left me high and dry Bm F#m D A So I put it back on the shelf for a little while F#m D A Ah but I still pull it down every now and again E F#m D A Not to toast what's gone before, but to all that remains, yeah F#m D A Oh always lost in memory, never to forget E F#m D A Laying low with those ghosts is my only regret END |
