Tabbed By Graham Jones
Great song from the Levellers 2012 album Static on the Airwaves.
Standard Tuning
E C D C (x2)
E C D C
I thought I heard a sound, of the speech on the wind.
E C D C
The smoulder of the smoke, hanging just above.
E C D C
And the darkest of thoughts, have the time to gather round.
E C D C
As gentle was the word, and the speech on the sound.
Chorus:
G D G D E
There's a place that's travelled far, always with you in your thoughts.
G D G D E
It's where your safe underground, waiting for the world with your song.
E C D C
And the colour of her hair, as it glides across her face.
E C D C
All thoughts of despair, never seemed so out of place.
E C D C
And it seems familiar, as the world echoes.
E C D C
Yeah, thinking of her, where you ought'a go.
Chorus:
G D G D E
There's a place that's travelled far, always with you in your thoughts.
G D G D E
It's where your safe underground, waiting for the world with your song.
Bridge:
G E
Stranded fish out of water,
G E
Struggling with all that they taught you.
Instrumental
G D G D E (x2)
E C D C
Siren of the state, after beaching down.
E C D C
Notice every word, have to touch the ground.
E C D C
You lift up your face, to every possibility.
E C D C
'Cause there has to be grace, as we journey that way.
Chorus:
G D G D E
There's a place that's travelled far, always with you in your thoughts.
G D G D E
It's where your safe underground, waiting for the world with your song.
