The Place I Love

Paul Weller of the Jam
>From "All Mod Cons" 

This is the improved version: new words and chord fix courtesy 
of Davide Musiani


The opening riff is kinda like:

E -|---------------------
B -|---------------------
G -|---------------------
D -|---------------------
A -|--------7-5-7-5------
E -|---5-5----------7----  Repeated 8 times.

Then it goes into an A B E progression.  1 bar A, 1 bar B, two bars E.
I play it kind of ska-like because I can't quite get the
chunk-a-chunka rhythm from the record. Play the progression twice
and then over the verses.

A (x02220@1) B (x2444x@1)   C (x32010@1)   The place I love is a million miles away.
A (x02220@1)     B (x2444x@1)	   C (x32010@1)   It's too far for the eye to see.
Bm (x24432@1)E (022100@1)   A (x02220@1)     F#m (244222@1)   Still it's me at least,   and you can't come there.
A (x02220@1)         B (x2444x@1)           C (x32010@1)  
    No one is allowed at all.
Bm (x24432@1) E (022100@1)           A (x02220@1)       F#m (244222@1)   Only animals that love, will   always, only ever could be.
A (x02220@1)             B (x2444x@1)                      E (022100@1)   And  it's always in the back of my mind.

(riff 4 times)

A (x02220@1)             B (x2444x@1)                E (022100@1)   The place I love is overgrown now,
A (x02220@1)                B (x2444x@1)               E (022100@1)   with beautiful moss and colorful flowers.
Bm (x24432@1)             E (022100@1)           A (x02220@1)  F#m (244222@1) 
    And goldfish that swim in a pool,   theres a small brick wall
A (x02220@1)              B (x2444x@1)                  E (022100@1)   With neon lightings controlled by lightning.
Bm (x24432@1)              E (022100@1)                  
    I'm makin' a stand against the world     
A (x02220@1)                           F#m (244222@1)   There's those that would hurt us if they heard.
A (x02220@1)           B (x2444x@1)                      E (022100@1)   And it's always in the back of my mind.

A (x02220@1)              B (x2444x@1)                 E (022100@1)   The place I love is nowhere near here.
A (x02220@1)              B (x2444x@1)                 E (022100@1)   Not within a yard of the trendy do's
Bm (x24432@1)                  E (022100@1)         A (x02220@1)       F#m (244222@1)   Where dogsbodies pick you up,    and graciously give you a lift
A (x02220@1)                  B (x2444x@1)               E (022100@1)   with cherished thoughts and bitterness.
Bm (x24432@1)               E (022100@1)             
    I'm makin' a stand against the world   
A (x02220@1)                           F#m (244222@1)   There's those that would hurt us if they heard.
