guitar tabs lyrics
Lost Boys Calling
Capo I (Every chord is really a half-step higher than written)
*=single notes (no chord)
C*
Come hold me now
F*
I am not gone
G* C*
I would not leave you here alone
F Ab
In this dead calm beneath the waves
Am7 Am7/D G
I can still hear those lost boys calling
C
You could not speak
F
You were afraid
G Ab* Am7
To take the risk of being left again
G Am7 G
And so you tipped your hat and waved and then
Dm G
You turned back up the gangway of that steel tomb again
CHORUS (2x, 2nd time with �she holds� and �we�)
C F
And in Mott Street in July
Dm7 G7
When I hear those seabirds cry
F Em7 Am7 F
I hold the child, the child in the man
G7 G/B C
The child that we leave behind
C
The spotlight fades
F
The boys disband,
G C
the final notes lie mute upon the sand
F Ab*
And in the silence of the grave
Am7 D/Am7 G
I can still hear those lost boys calling
C
We left them there
F
When they were young
G C
The men were gone until the west was won
F Ab*
And now there's nothing left but time to kill
Am7 D/Am7
You never took us fishing dad
G
And now you never will
CHORUS I
Notes:
1. Not sure about the Ab as a single note, but I can�t figure out a chord here. I tried
F/Ab, but it didn�t sound right. Any suggestions or corrections, please email the
cowboy at yahoo. (Delete the spaces.)
2. Not sure about the G/B either.
3. I also had a bit of trouble with the "and so you tipped your hat and waved" line. I'm
sure that what I have is correct, but would welcome suggestions.
