Turin Brakes es una de las bandas más reprensentativas del NAM (New Acoustic Movement) que hace un par de años dejaba a la prensa inglesa embobada. Turin Brakes son melancólicos y eufóricos a partes iguales, nostálgicos y visionarios, grandes e intensos.
¡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!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------- Turin Brakes – Average Man --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please note: on the version of the cd you mostly only hear the lower notes of the chords strummed. And dont get scared by the F#5 powerchord, I think a F#minor also works in stead off the F#5 if you’re planning to play everything in bare. But as i said you only hear the lower notes so the F#5 was more of an indication of what strings to hit. I try to keep as much open chords in my playing as possible though :)
Intro:
BmAmEmF#5 x 2
Verse 1:
BmAm If i was a farmer
EmF#5 Instead of a faker
BmAm If i was a realer
EmF#5 and not just some raker
BmAm Raking through a memory
EmF#5 that doesn't belong to me
BmAm Just someone I could of been
EmF#5 if only i kept walking...
Chorus:
DG Have another drink my son
DG Enjoy another cigarette
DG 'Cos it's time you realised...
EmBm you're just an average man...
Verse 2:
BmAm Alone on a motorway
EmF#5 you catch you're breath
BmAm Cat's eyes lead everyway
EmF#5 to lonesomness
BmAm Since you learn to hide your fears
EmF#5 and downsize your dreams
BmAm Still alive, still sincere
EmF#5 inside the scheme...
Chorus:
DG Have another drink my son
DG Enjoy another cigarette
DG 'Cos it's time you realised...
EmBm you're just an average man...
Verse 3: (different chord progression)
BmDGEm And ff this is dark-ness here
BmDGEmG And if this is dark-ness... coming
Chorus:
DG Have another drink my son
DG Enjoy another cigarette
DG 'Cos it's time you realised...
EmBm you're just an average man...
