*****DO NOT ADD STRUMMING PATTERNS TO MY TABS*****
Clannad - I See Red
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[Intro]
F Am F Am
[Verse 1]
Back in my schooldays, acting the fool days
One and one and one is three
F Am
And the man said, "Hey, come and cut yourself a piece of the big time"
Armour-clad forces, riding Trojan horses
Never made sense to me
F Am
I didn't wanna be a part of the great debate on moonshine
[Chorus]
F
"Stop, pay the price," they said to me
Am
"Take this advice, you're out of your head"
F
I said, "Stop, hold the phone
This has to be cut to the bone
Am
Too bad, I see red, I see red, I see red"
[Verse 2]
Sly man stumbles, twists and he tumbles
He always lands on his feet
F Am
And he sets his face towards the far horizon
Won't you come this way? Can't you go that way?
But his rhythm don't miss a beat
F Am
'Cause he's doing everything he can to keep surviving
[Chorus]
F
"Stop, pay the price," they said to me
Am
"Take this advice, you're out of your head"
F
"Stop, pay the price," they said to me
Am
"Take this advice, you're out of your head"
F
I said, "Stop, hold the phone
This has to be cut to the bone
Am
Too bad, I see red, I see red, I see red"
[Verse 3]
So who wants a riot? People should be quiet
Don't we give them good TV?
F Am
You can learn to love your lifetime of distraction
Nothing on the inside, nothing on the outside
All the way from A to Z
F Am
I can live without that kind of satisfaction
[Chorus]
F
"Stop, pay the price," they said to me
Am
"Take this advice, you're out of your head"
F
I said, "Stop, hold the phone
This has to be cut to the bone
Am
Too bad, I see red, I see red, I see red"
[Chorus]
F
"Stop, pay the price," they said to me
Am
"Take this advice, you're out of your head"
F
I said, "Stop, hold the phone
This has to be cut to the bone
Am
Too bad, I see red, I see red, I see red"
[Chorus]
F
"Stop, pay the price," they said to me
Am
"Take this advice, you're out of your head"
F
I said, "Stop, hold the phone
This has to be cut to the bone
Am
Too bad, I see red, I see red, I see red"
[Chorus] (fade to end)
F
"Stop, pay the price," they said to me
Am
"Take this advice, you're out of your head"
F
I said, "Stop, hold the phone
This has to be cut to the bone
Am
Too bad, I see red, I see red, I see red"
