Act Of The Apostle Chords by Belle And Sebastian ubi_rex@hotmail.com The notes in parenthesis are just notes, not chords. The G chord before (f#-f-e d-e-d) is played very briefly before the notes come in. It probably doesn't really matter if you play the G at all, but I think it's there. I think this sounds best with the recording if you barre G and Cm, and mute the E string in the Cm, if you're playing guitar, that is... intro riff is d-f-d g g d-f-d g Cm Morning prayers took the girl unawares f C She was late for class and she knew it g Cm The broadcaster had a voice that was soothing f C She couldn?t tell if it was a man or wo-man A C g (f#-f-e d-e-d) A patch of sun fell onto her neck A C g (f#-f-e d-e-d) She put her head on her arms on her desk g Cm The lesson today was Acts of Apostles f C The crazy hippies, they?re running scared g Cm She shut her eyes and imagined the desert f C No cars, no mobiles, just sun and bread A C g (f#-f-e d-e-d) What would she look like standing by the well? A C g (f#-f-e d-e-d) More like a women and less like a girl Bb Eb ?Oh, if I could make sense of it all! Bb Eb I wish that I could sing. I?d stay in a melody Bb I would float along in my everlasting song Am (c-b C-b) d What would I do to believe?? intro notes again: d-f-d g g d-f-d g Cm Later on she plays Morning Has Broken f C She knows she?s bad. She is slowing everbody down g Cm The choirmaster, usually a bastard, f C knows her mother?s sick. He?ll be nice to her. A C g (f#-f-e d-e-d) She thinks that she shouldn?t be there at all A C g (f#-f-e d-e-d) Her worries make everything else seem trivial Bb Eb ?Oh, if I could make sense of it all! Bb Eb I wish that I could sing. I?d stay in a melody Bb I would float along in my everlasting song Am (c-b C-b) d What would I do to believe?? Repeat A few more times: Am (c-b C-b) d
