Dave Cousins - All In Vain
[Intro]
C G D G C G D Em (2x) C
[Verse 1]
G D G C
The open book, the telephone
G D Em C
The tangled line, the broken bone
G D G C
The monkey man, the golden locks
G D Em
Forget me not, the money box
[Chorus]
C B Em
Please don't break my heart again
C G
I looked for all
D Em C
But all in vain
[Verse 2]
G D G C
The willing crew, the even keel
G D Em C
The sharpened knife, the grinding wheel
G D G C
The jealous wife, the binding trust
G D Em
Forget me not, the cut and thrust
[Chorus]
C B Em
You tore my heart out in the rain
C G
I looked for all
D Em C
But all in vain
C B Em
A damaged heart can feel no pain
C G
I looked for all
D Em
But all in vain
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
G D G C
The miner's luck, the mother lode
G D Em C
The gambling man, the master code
G D G C
The knowing more, the caring less
G D Em C
Forget me not, the emptiness
[Chorus]
B Em
We took the vows but few remain
C G
I looked for all
D Em C
But all in vain
C B Em
Please don't break my heart again
C G
I looked for all
D Em C
But all in vain
[Chorus]
B Em
You tore my heart out in the rain
C G
I looked for all
D Em C
But all in vain
C B Em
Please don't break my heart again
C G
I looked for all
D Em C
But all in vain
