"Who are Britain's most important guitar band ? JJ72? Coldplay? Muse? But look at that list and tell me whether those bands are really changing peoples lives? Because, believe it or not, Dum Dums are. ...where others preach to the converted, they are leading an increasingly significant segment of the pop massive up the dark slopes of indie" - MELODY MAKER
From their formation in 1997 to their farewell show in August 2001
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
VERSE 1 GG/F#Cadd9Dsus4GG/F#Cadd9Dsus4 Sitting on the train, starring at the empty seat in front of me. GG/F#Cadd9Dsus4G Beneath a golden sky, cities roll on by and I can't get no sleep G/F#Cadd9Dsus4Em7
BRIDGE 1 Cadd9 When I'm alone sometimes, Dsus4 I try to understand, GG/F#Em7 What things have meaning. Cadd9 And I despise myself, Dsus4 For being such a fake, GG/F#Em7Cadd9Dsus4 My mind goes up for miles and miles and miles and miles?
CHORUS GG/F#B7sus4 Sail away, with the sea as my engine Am And the stars as my guide, Asus2CD Sailing to the other side?
VERSE 2 On a stormy night, walking home in silence while the city sleeps. I try to do whats right, but something in my natures trying to ruin me.
BRIDGE 2 I look out to the sea, A thousand just like me, Needing direction. Just floating out of sight, Into the failing light, As if It's just the way my life was meant to be?
CHORUS PLAY INTRO (X4) OUTRO Dsus4GG/F#Cadd9 I'm setting sail, to the other side
BACKING VOCALS The sun goes down and I smile but it's just the same Our summer is about to end, and I don't, it's gonna be alright? Every ones down and the town it's in decay, we're wasting our lives away, And I don't know, it's gonna be alright?
Play intro twice and end on G.
