Montague Terrace (In Blue)
(Engel)
(Am G) x2
Verse 1
Am G
The little clock's stopped ticking now
Am G
We're swallowed in the stomach room
Fm C
The only sound to tear the night
D Dm E
Comes from the man upstairs
Am G
His bloating belching figure stomps
Am G
He may crash through the ceiling soon
Fm C
The window sees trees cry from cold
D Dm E
And claw the moon
Chorus
A D
But we know don't we?
G A
And we'll dream won't we?
F C
Of Montague Terrace in blue
(Am G) x2
Verse 2
Am G
The girl across the hall makes love
Am G
Her thoughts lay cold like shattered stone
Fm C
Her thighs are full of tales to tell
D Dm E
Of all the nights she's known
Am G
Your eyes ignite like cold blue fire
Am G
The scent of secrets everywhere
Fm C
A fist filled with illusions
Dm E
Clutches all our cares
repeat chorus
(Am G) to fade
NOTES
While the chord sequence is fairly straightforward the arrangement
plays around with suspended ninths of each of the verse chords (the
da-da-daa-da-da motif), If you are feeling ambitious then you could
try and include that motif in your chords structure like this:
Am G
-----7-7-7-5-5-------3-3-3-5-5-------------------------------|
-----5---5---5-------3---3---3-------------------------------|
-----5---5---5-------4---4---4------etc----------------------|
---------------------5---5-----------------------------------|
-------------5-5-------------5-5-----------------------------|
-5---------------3-------------------------------------------|
