intro Em Bm C#m7b5 F#7 Bm 2x B7

I do not sleep tonight
I may not ever
The sins of the past have come
See how they sit down together

Outside my window
Outside my door
And I know the reason
What they’ve all come here for

You my love
My sweet, sweet love
Are what it’s all because of

solo Em Bm C#m7b5 F#7 Bm B7

Surrender is easy
I know you do me no harm
But your innocence haunts me
The most fatal of charms

Oh I must have done some wrong
On a dark and distant day
For I know full and well tonight
This is how that I must pay

And you my love
My sweet, sweet love
Are what it’s all because of

Oh, you my love
My sweet, sweet love
Are what it’s all because of… yeah

Be – tween the eyes of love …I call your name,

U – pon a summer wind, there’s a certain melo - dy,
Takes me back to the place that I know…
On the beach, yeah, yeah, down on the beach, yeah, yeah!

The secrets of the summer …I will keep,
The sands of time will blow a …myster - y,
No one, but you and I, …under – neath that moonlit sky,
Take me back to the place that I know…
On the beach, yeah, yeah, oh, down on the beach,

Yeah, down on the beach——-, on the beach, yeah, yeah,

On the beach!

Stainsby Girls
by
Chris Rea

Conrtibuted by
Len Aye

Intro: E E E

Some girls used to kiss and run
Never knew what they had done
Some girls always wasted time
Keep you hanging on the line
Some love horses, and always stay at home
But the Stainsby girls loved the Rolling Stones

Now, some had game that you just had to play
Making rules along the way
Strange attractions newly found
Pride and passion kicked around
Some girls stole your heart like most girls do
But a Stainsby girl could break it in two

I fell in love
I fell in love
I fell in love, Ooh yeah
I fell in love with a Stainsby girl

Instrumental

E A E A E A E (I’m not sure about this bit)

Deepest water, Staninby blue
Running straight running true
Names and faces fade away
Memory is here to stay
Some girls steal your heart like most girls do
But a Stainsby girl could break it in two

I fell in love
I fell in love
I fell in love, Ooh yeah
I fell in love with a Stainsby girl

Ending bit:

B / / E / / B / / E / / (means play two bars each)

A E / B E / A E / B E / A E / B E / (means play A and E in one bar,
and likewise for B and E.)

Chords suggestions:

To make it sound just like the record you should use barr chords
throughout the song.

[E-B-]
[A/B]
Catch a sight of long lost summers
catch a dream inside your hand
take me where that lady comes from
take me to that far off distant land

Rain comes falling pass my wind[-]ow[-]
turns my sky from blue to grey
I ain’t never been to Texas
but I [A/B]sure gonna meet that lady
[-]on[B7/E]e fin[-]e day[-][-]

When Texas smiles around my bedroom
who could ever turn her down
tears of joy roll down my pillow
while cold north winds are blowing
all around me

but I don’t mind, my dream is westbound
far across that sky so grey
i ain’t never been to Texas
but I sure gonna meet that lady
one fine day

Ooh, yeah, she’s my little Texas..

Intro
|F |Em |G |C | x2

I’m going fishing
I got me a line
Nothin’ I do’s gonna’ make the difference
So I’m taking the time

And you ain’t never gonna’ be happy[Am/G]
Anyhow, anyway
So I’m going fishing
And I’m going today

bridge
|F |Em |G |C |

I’m going fishing
Sounds crasy I know
I know nothing about fishing
But just watch me go

And when my time has com[Am/G]e
I will look back and see
Peace on the shoreline
That could have been me

|G |C |G |C | x2
|G |Am Am/G|F C |Dm |
|G7 |C |G |C |

You can waste whole lifetime[Am/G]
Trying to be[Dm/C]
What you think is expected of [Am/G]you
But you’ll never be free

G7 |C |G |C |C |
May as well go fishing

Intro
|E |B |C#m |C#m7 |A |E |F#m |F#m7 |B |B/A |B |B7 | x2

I see a turning wheel
On a dusty track
Caught in the void and empty space
In between there and back
And the paradi[B/A]se of going somewhere
That’s still so far away
Happy, boy you bet I am
Holding on to t[B/A]his smile for just as long as I can

Heaven Do Di Do Do heaven

It’s all bright in front
And it’s all dark behind
Livin’ for the now that’s in between the bridges and the signs
And getting there[B/A] is still a long long way to go
While the others dream and wish
This is everything I officially need to know
Happy, boy you bet I am
Holding on to this[B/A] smile for just as long as I can

Heaven Do Di Do Do heaven
