The Summer of Discontent
Lyrics by Michael Timmins
Music by Michael Timmins, Greg Clarke and Brodie Lodge
[Em] Another note afloat [C] upon this paper [D] sea.
[Am] Explain to me
how [Em] this can be.
Another face erased [C] from this tidal [D] pool.
[Am] Found one day
then [Em] swept away.
[C] I will carry [Em] you my love.
[C] If you can carry [Em] me
through this [C] summer [Em] of [C] our discontent. [NC] [Em]
Another day away [C] from clutching [D] hands.
[Am] Explain to me
how [Em] this can be.
Another stroke of evil [C] pen.
[D] Blind as sleep,
[Am] deaf as death
to the [Em] tears you weep.
[C] I will carry [Em] you my love.
[C] If you can carry [Em] me
through this [C] summer [Em] of [C] our discontent. [NC] [Em]
solo on verse
[Em] Another falling wave
[C] upon this crumbling [D] beach.
How [Am] many more
[Em] until we meet?
[C] I will carry [Em] you my love.
[C] If you can carry [Em] me
[C] I will carry [Em] you my love.
[C] If you can carry [Em] me
through this [C] summer [Em] of [C] our discontent. [NC] [Em]
Tabbed by kkmccool: Capo on the 3rd fret.
All [D] chords have an added A (4th string 7th fret)
bbkim's note: to play without a capo try replacing the chords above
with these:
Em = Gm (3-5-5-3-3-3)
C = Eb (6-6-8-8-8-6)
D = F (8-8-10-10-8-8)
Am = Cm (3-3-5-5-4-3)
Also, Mike's playing a lot of bass notes in this song, he usually plays
on the bottom strings, but chose the top ones for this.
