Only Shadows

Late night shadows moving through
A bar at midnight, there’s only you
Don’t see those figures beyond your eyes
Only shadows passing by
Don’t you wanna fell the rain again?
Oh don’t you wanna feel the rain again?
Don’t you wanna fell the rain again?
Oh, don’t you wanna, feel the rain?
Through my eyes you never change
No I cannot act my age
Don’t feel the passing of the days
Always fire, never fades
Don’t you wanna fell the rain again?
Oh, don’t you wanna feel the rain again?
Don’t you wanna feel the rain?
Oh, don’t you wanna?
How do I believe you when every day goes by and
I hardly ever see you
It’s true
Don’t you wanna fell the rain again?
Oh, don’t you wanna feel the rain again?
Don’t you wanna feel the rain?
Oh, don’t you wanna?

Emigrant Song

A, D, A, A
I saw a friend out on the street today
She said “you look like you should get away”
She said that we should get together soon
I said that we should play another tune
F#m, D, A, A
I thought that you'd be coming back again
I thought that you’d be coming back again
E, D, A, F#m
What’s the weather like in Nova Scotia?
What’s weather like in Wellington
Cos I’ll never find the rent in London
No, I’ll never pay my debts round here
E, D
What’s the Weather like in Adelaide?
A, D, A, A
We took a bar out in St Katherine’s dock
And saw the sun come up a four o’clock
She said I’m tired working in this town
And half the world has emigrated now
F#m, D, A, A
I thought that you'd be coming back again
I thought that you’d be coming back again
E, D, A, F#m
What’s the weather like out in Vancouver?
What’s weather like in Wellington
Cos I’ll never find my love in London
No, I’ll never pay my debts round here
What’s the Weather like in Adelaide?

Before You Go
02:47
|
|||
|
I lie awake and listen to
the chords you play
up in your room
and every day you’re getting better
better than me, who wouldn’t be?
Chorus
Precious time, if I could hear you playing one more time
Before you go
Verse 2
I hear the key down in the door
and then your bag dropped on the floor
and soon again that old guitar
I used to play back in the day
Chorus
Precious time, if I could hear you singing one more line
Before you go, before you go
Instrumental break - Verse chords
I heard your key in the door last night
But it couldn’t have been alright?
‘cause you left ten years ago and
now I think of you at every show and
while I’m waiting here in the wings
I hear your voice begin to sing
And as the room begins to rock
turn back the clock
Chorus
Precious time, if I could hear you playing one more time
If I could hear you singing one more line
Before you go, before you go

Without You
04:20
|
|||
|
I’ll go out on the weekend
Our little cafe and continue into town
And meet up at the pictures
Then the pub and talk about the film
Without You,
Without You
Without You
Without You
I’ll get home at eleven
And wake at 2 in front of the TV
You wouldn’t let it happen
But everything is out of time
Without You
Without You
Without You
Without You
Now I’m checking my reflection in the window of a stupid new store
While I’m waiting for a bus to take me home
where I can just miss you some more

Kisses On the Dancefloor

Em / D
Remember kisses on the dance-floor
Twenty One, and just for fun
And thinking do you want more?
Like I do
Oh, I told you not to slow
Oh, down for me
Bm, C, Bm, C, Bm, C, D, D
Oh darling please
You work so tirelessly
To get the things you need
I’d love to set you free
Remember kisses on the dance-floor
Thirty One, the rising sun
You know I couldn’t be more
In love than this
Oh, I told you not to slow
Oh, down for me
Oh darling please
You work so tirelessly
To get the things you need
I’d love to set you free

Rockin' To the Beat
03:19
|

|
I love to watch her
Rockin’ to the beat
Dancing in a cheap dress
Out in the summer heat
She isn’t thinking
about the days to come
I love to watch her
Out rocking in the sun
The world is out there waiting
She’s knows it’s coming soon
But now the band is playing here favourite tune
I used to know someone bit like her
She couldn’t move when her world began to turn
There was a boy that crept into her dreams
I used to know someone a lot like me
The world is out there waiting
She’s knows it’s coming soon
But now the band is playing here favourite tune

Pennies In The Jar
02:42
|
|||
|
The Bible on the bookcase
The pennies in the jar
Summer and the smell of molten tar
A dusty record cover
A broken model plane
Condensation on the window pane
Then I hear your words
As the years coverage
I almost hear your words
The clouds across my eyes and
The breeze upon my face
A memory that I can almost place
And on the streets of my town
There are no trees or shade
(streets we used to play?)
The walls are straight, the kerb is clean and grey
And as I close my eyes
Then you’re my my side
And then I hear those words
As the years coverage
I almost hear your words

Better Come Round Soon
02:25
|

|
f you’re thinking of me you’d
Better come round soon
Now you’re in the country you’d
Better come round soon
Oh-oo-woh, Better come round soon
While you’re dreaming out of sight
Someone else might catch my eye
oh you’d
Better come round soon
If you think I’m waiting you’d
Better come round soon
If I’m I’m staying in
Better come round soon
Oh-oo-woh, Better Come round soon
Cos they’re lining up outside
And one of them might change my mind
oh you’d
Better come round soon
Better come round soon
Better come round soon
Better come round soon
While you wait and analyse
Someone else might grab this prize
Oh you’d
Better come round soon

I’ll see you every other weekend
Imagine that you’ll be
Around the same old scene
I’m only out here for the money
I’m not about to lie
I’m not unhappy out of sight
Still I hear the waves upon the shingle
As I wait so patiently for sleep
Still I hear the waves upon the shingle
Though I’m 50 miles from the sea
It’s minus 20 in the mornings
The coffee’s kinda strange
It’s funny how your tastes can change
Sometimes I think that I should miss you
A bit more than I do
There’s nothing wrong, it’s always you
Still I hear the waves upon the shingle
As I wait so patiently for sleep
Still I hear you breathing here beside me
Though a thousand miles away from me

Still
04:10
|

|
Suddenly so quiet here, so still
Waiting for the hours now to fill
Tell me what's been going on long range
Tell me where I'm going wrong, I'll change
If you can take the English Winter then I'll take the New York sun
Like a fire when you're with me like a desert when you're gone
What's the point in going on like this?
Living on a memory of bliss
Suddenly so quiet here, so still
Waiting for the hours now to fill
If you can take the English Winter then I'll take the New York sun
Like a fire when you're with me like a desert when you're gone

Call me when the rain comes
Call me when
The Rivers rise again
Call me when the wind grows
Through the trees
And nature’s off her knees
Then I’ll come
And follow you away down
Along that path
That leads into my heart
Sorry that it’s been so
Long I know
It’s lonely in the snow
So show me where the trout rise
In the Spring
And forgive everything
Then I’ll come
And follow you away down
Along the streams
That linger in my dreams

Remember how Bill Murray woke up to I Got You Babe every day in Groundhog Day? If that song would have been Made Of Moods, he at the very least experienced three and a half perfect minutes each day. It’s one of those songs that I enjoy each and every second of, with it’s jangly guitars and hushed vocals that almost have a Beach Boys vibe, especially in the verse. Truly, it’s a song for the ages. But the best news about Still Life is that it offers eleven additional underground pop gems.
