Lightning Seeds (Written by Ian Broudie)
>From the Cd, Lp, Mc : Jollification


INTRO:

Dm - C - G	C - Gsus4/B - Am
Dm - C - G	C - G/B - Ab - Bb


1. VERSE:

C	       G
See the rivers filled with rain

  Am		   F		C
I wish it could be blue again

      G
Hazy petrol nights

  Am		Fm		Fmaj7
Crimson sun on traffic lights

BRIGDE #1:

   Dm		  Dm7/C
A perfect day, a perfect night

G/B		   G
Tell me all those perfect lies

     C		     G/B	      Am   A/C#
And lie back in the garden 'til it's light

Dm		     Dm7/C
Streets get full up every night

     G/B	     G
With people buzzing round the lights

     C		   G/B	  	  Am   G
And waving at the taxies driving by

CHORUS:

Dm    C		      G
Now tomorrow's here today

      C	   	 G/B		  Ab	Bb
And yesterday's todays just fade away

2. VERSE:

C/E		  G/D
Watch the morning chase the night

Am		    F
Rolling home, it's getting light

C		G
Feeling sleepy, full of wine

Am	      F			Fmaj7
Fall in bed, just in time

BRIDGE #2:

     Dm		     Dm7/C
The perfect stare of perfect eyes

     G/B	       G
That kiss you as they tell you lies

    C		         G/B	            Am   A/C#
And wonder where you're going, where've you been

    Dm		     Dm7/C
In towers high with time to fill

G/B	         G
Gardens on your window sill

     C		   G/B	  	  Am   G
In between the pavement and the sky

CHORUS:

Dm    C		      G
Now tomorrow's here today

      C	   	 G/B		  Ab	Bb
And yesterday's todays just fade away

BRIDGE #3:

Eb	Bb	     Cm			       B    C#
Tell me why all the words will never come out right

Eb       Bb		   Cm			      Ab    F
Fumbling blind, I've been driving through the danger signs

BRIDGE #4

   Dm		     Dm7/C
A perfect day, a perfect night

G/B	            G
Tell me all those perfect lies

     C		     G/B	      Am   A/C#
And lie back in the garden 'til it's light

Dm		Dm7/C
Perfect silence me and you

      G/B	         G
It's really me, I really do

  C		 G/B	   Am   G
Remember every moment magnified

CHORUS:

Dm    C		      G
Now tomorrow's here today

      C	   	 G/B		  Ab	Bb
And yesterday's todays just fade away

BRIDGE #3:

Eb	Bb	     Cm			       B    C#
Tell me why all the words will never come out right

Eb       Bb		   Cm			      Ab
Fumbling blind, I've been driving through the danger signs
