Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Last Beat of My Heart by Siouxsie and the Banshees =============================== This is the song my wife and I danced to at our wedding, so I figure it should be the first chord I ever submit! This is a very simple song and good for beginners. The rhythm is reminiscent of a 50's era slow ballad. Play along with the song and you'll have it in no time.
Intro: Just strum or pick a C maj (arpeggio sounds nice here)
C In the sharp gust of love My memory stirred
Am When time wreathed a rose A garland of shame
F Its thorn my only delight War torn, afraid to speak
C We dare to breathe Majestic, Imperial, A bridge of sighs
Am Solitude sails In a wave of forgiveness
C On angels' wings Reach out your hands Don't turn your back
Am Don't walk away
F How in the world
Fm Can I wish for this?
CC7 Never to be torn apart
F Close to you
FmC 'Til the last beat Of my heart
C At the close of day The sunset cloaks
Am These words in shadowplay
F Here and now, long and loud
C My heart cries out
Am And the naked bone of an echo says
C Don't walk away
FFm Reach out your hands
CC7 I'm just a step away
F How in the world
Fm Can I wish for this?
CC7 Never to be torn apart
F Close to you
FmC 'Til the last beat
C7 Of my heart
F How in the world
Fm Can I wish for this?
CC7 Never to be torn apart
F 'Til the last beat
FmC 'Til the last fleeting beat
C7 Of my heart
