Б.Гребенщиков - Summer Songs (2005)

(Richard Thompson)
                         G                  D
Well she dressed in the dark and she said Amen
          G        C           D           C
She was pretty in pink like a young girl again
      D           G                             D
For twenty years married and she didn't think twice
            G           C              D         C
She sneaked out of the door and walked into the night

             D                       C         G
   Well the silver bird took her all over the sea
             D                        C          G
   From the west coast of Ireland to West Tennessee
                                              D
   To be with her sweetheart, she left everything
         G          C      D                C
   From Galway to Graceland to be with the king

She was humming Suspicion, that's the song she loved best
She had Elvis I Love You tattooed on her breast
When they landed in Memphis, well her heart beat so fast
She'd dreamed for so long, now she'd see him at last

   Down by his graveside she nailed day after day
   Come closing time they would pull her away
   Ah to be with her sweetheart, she left everything
   From Galway to Graceland to be with the king

Well they came there in thousand from whole human race
To pay their respects at his last resting place
But blindly she knelt there and she told him her dreams
And he answered to her or that's for how it seems

   Well then they dragged her away it was handcuffs this time
   She said my dear man are you out of your mind.
   Don't you know that we're married? See, I'm wearing his ring.
   From Galway to Graceland to be with the king.
   I come From Galway to Graceland to be with the king.

If You See Her Say Hello

(Bob Dylan)
A               D      A              D      A
If you see her say hello she might be in Tangier
             C#m   F#m                     Hm             E
She left here early last spring and she's living there I hear
F#m                 D    A                                D
Say to her that I'm all right though things get kind of slow
            A  C#m            F#m      D                         A
She might think that I've forgotten her don't tell her it isn't so.

We had a falling-out like lovers often will
But to think of how she left that night it still brings me a chill
And though our separation it pierced me to the heart
She still lives inside of me we've never been apart.

If you get close to her kiss her once for me
I always have respected her for doing what she did and getting free
Whatever makes her happy I won't stay in the way
Everything is blood now I still thanks o'kay

I meet a lot of people as I make my rounds
And I hear her name mentioned here and there as I go from town to town
But I've never gotten used to it I've just learned to turn it off
Either I'm too sensitive or else I'm getting soft.

Sundown yellow moon I replay the past
I know every scene by heart they all fly by so fast
If she's coming back this way I'm not that hard to find
Tell her she can look me up if she's got the time.

If you see her say hello...

Turquoise

(Donovan)
A                   D            A
Your eyes are like sunrise on a gull's wings
                        D              A
And the birds cease to sing when you smile
                       D                A
Ride easy your fairy stallion you have mounted.
                                D                  A
Take care how you fly, oh, my precious, you might fall down.

In the sunset feels the sunrise I have wandered
You know my eyes and ears are filled to the full,
And you know I've tasted the essence in a few days.
Take care who you love, oh, my precious, he might not know.
Take care how you fly, oh, my darling, you might fall down.

Alexandra Leaving

(Leonard Cohen)
A                             F#m
Suddenly the night has grown colder.
Hm                  D           E
The god of love preparing to depart.
    A                      F#m
Alexandra hoisted on his shoulder,
Hm                     E               A
They slip between the sentries of the heart.

      E                            Hm
   Upheld by the simplicities of pleasure,
         D                                  E
   They gain the light, they formlessly entwine;
        A                          F#m
   And radiant beyond your widest measure
   Hm                   E              A
   They fall among the voices and the wine.

                   D          E            F#m
      It's not a trick, your senses all deceiving,
                 Hm                       E
      A fitful dream, the morning will exhaust
               A                F#m
      Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving.
      Hm              E              A
      Then say goodbye to Alexandra lost.

Even though she sleeps upon your satin;
Even though she wakes you with a kiss.
Do not say the moment was imagined;
Do not stoop to strategies like this.

   As someone long prepared for this to happen,
   Go slowly to the window. Drink it in.
   Exquisite music. Alexandra laughing.
   Your first commitments tangible again.

      And you who had the honor of her evening,
      And by this honor had your own restored
      Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving;
      Say goodbye to Alexandra lost.
      Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving;
      Alexandra leaving with her Lord.

As someone unprepared for the occasion;
In full command of every plan you wrecked
Do not choose a coward's explanation
That hides between the cause and the effect.

      And you who were bewildered by a meaning;
      Whose code was broken, crucifix uncrossed
      Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving.
      Say goodbye to Alexandra lost.
      Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving.
      And say goodbye to Alexandra lost.

   His sword in battle keen
   But aye she let the tears doon fa'
   For Jock o'Hazeldean.

The kirk was deck'd at morning tide
The tapers glimmer'd fair
The priest and bridegroom looked for her
And dames and knights are there.

   They sought her baith by bower and ha'
   The ladye was not seen
   She's o'er the border and awa'
   With Jock o'Hazeldean!

Enchanted Gypsy

(Donovan)
   Hm                       F#       Hm
A day once dawned all the creatures yawned
                      F#    Hm
Under the leaves so greeny, oh
                         F#      Hm
In a vision I saw as a crowded crow
                         F#      Hm
So far here I go to the running for
               F#          Hm
To follow the path of the gypsy, oh

Seaweed clings to ruby rings
On the fingers of my lady, oh
And the people in the town they would not look round 
To see me go to the running for
To follow the path of the gypsy, oh

Her caravan is a-painted by hand 
At new every pebble in the ocean, oh
And the pictures there they move in thin air 
There forever a-telling, oh
The tales of the enchanted gypsy, oh

Seaweed clings to ruby rings 
On the fingers of my lady, oh
And the people in the town they would not look round 
To see me go running for
To follow the path of the gypsy, oh

A day once dawned all the creatures yawned
Under the leaves so greeny, oh
In a vision I saw as a crowded crow
No more need I go running for
To follow the path of the gypsy, oh

Seaweed clings to ruby rings 
On the fingers of my lady, oh
And the people in the town they would not look round 
To see me go running for
To follow the path of the gypsy, oh

Play With Fire

(Rolling Stones)
 Em
Now you've got your diamonds
And you've got your pretty clothes
And the chauffeur drives your car
You let everybody know 
            G   D    G
But don't play with me,
                C           Em7
'cause you're playing with fire 

Your mother she's an heiress,
Owns a block in Saint John's Wood
And your father'd be there with her
If he only could 
But don't play with me,
'cause you're playing with fire 

Your mother sold her diamond's
And tiaras by the score
Now she gets her kicks in Stepney
Not in Knightsbridge anymore 
But don't play with me,
'cause you're playing with fire 

Now you've got your diamonds
And you will have some others
But you'd better watch your step, girl
Or start living with your mother 
Don't play with me,
'cause you're playing with fire

Crawling Back To You

(Tom Petty)
Dm              C
Waiting by the side of the road
G                    Gm
For day to break so we could go
Dm         C
Down into Los Angeles
G                     Gm
With dirty hands and worn out knees

   Dm    C         Gm                 B  Am
   Uh-uh-uh, I keep crawling back to you
   Dm    C         G                  Gm
   Uh-uh-uh, I keep crawling back to you

The ranger came with burning eyes
The chambermaid awoke surprised
Thought she'd seen the last of him
She shook her head and let him in

   Uh-uh-uh, I keep crawling back to you
   Uh-uh-uh, I keep crawling back to you

            B F           B                F
      Well baby, there's something in your eyes
                  B    F            B          F
      That could save me, say I've gonna be alright
         Dm   C        G
      If I believe in you
                   Dm          C       Gm
      Yeah, that's all what I want to do

It was me and my sidekick
He was drunk and I was sick
We caught here to this barroom fight
Till an Indian shot out the lights

I'm so tired of being tired
Sure as night will follow day
Most of the things I worry about
Never happen anyway

   Uh-uh-uh, I keep crawling back to you
   Uh-uh-uh, I keep crawling back to you

Waltzing For Dreamers

(Richard Thompson)
D
So play me a blues song, turn down the light
         Em       D            G         A
There's noted a proud man can do such tonight
  D
Please let me swing, please let me sway
            Em      D            G           A
While the sweet violins and the saxophones play
     Em               A           Em          A
And Miss, you don't know me, but can't we pretend
         G                             A
That we care for each other, till the band reach the end

            D            G
   And it's one step for aching
     D             G
   Two steps for breaking
    Hm              Em
   Waltzing's for dreamers
        A         D
   And losers in love

   One step for sighing
   Two steps for crying
   Waltzing's for dreamers
   And losers in love

They say love's for gamblers, and the pendulum swings
I've bet hard on love and I've lost everything
But don't put me out, put a shot in my arm
And we'll drink out old memories and we'll drink in the dawn
And Mr. Bandleader, can't you play one more time
For this good folding money in this pocket of mine.

   And it's one step for aching
   Two steps for breaking
   Waltzing's for dreamers
   And losers in love

   One step for sighing
   Two steps for crying
   Waltzing's for dreamers
   And losers in love

Great Horse

(Marc Bolan, T.Rex)
B                     Gm
Great Horsey Champer Gold braid
Cm                      Dm
Pranced proudly in the garden villas
With the Sun

Dipped diving with his horned onyx
Saddle shining in the black aped eyeballs
Of the gun.

   B                     Gm
   When the great apple falls
                            D#    Cm D# B
   She'll be queen of your halls.

Tall bowman from the burnt pastures
Saw Champer and he bowed ground kissing
To his lord.

Strange beastie from the legend lair
Sire, I can master with the aid of this
Skull powdered cord

   When the great apple falls
   She'll be queen of your halls.

First We Take Manhattan

(Leonard Cohen)
Em    Am               C              Em
They sentenced me to twenty years of boredom
      Am                  C              Em
For trying to change the system from within
     Am                C           Em
But now I'm back, I'm coming to reward them
 D                C            H              Em
First we take Manhattan, and then we take Berlin

I'm guided by a signal in the heavens
I'm guided by this birthmark on my skin
I'm guided by the beauty of our weapons
First we take Manhattan, and then we take Berlin

      G                                 D
   I really love the things about you, baby

      D           C        H              Em
   I told you, I told you, I was one of those

Remember me, I used to live for music
Remember me, I brought your groceries in
The power is back and now I'm gonna use it
First we take Manhattan, and then we take Berlin

I don't like your fashion business mister
And I don't like these drugs that keep you thin
And I don't like what happened to my sister
First we take Manhattan, and then we take Berlin

   I really love the things about you, baby
   I love your parfum, your body and your clothes
   But see that line that's moving through the station?
   I told you, I told you, I was one of those
