Luck And Strange

[Intro] Em  D5

        Em              D5    Em
In the light before the dawn
        D5       Em     D5     Em  D5
Shadows snake in my peripheral
     Em               D5  Em
Mesmerise me, bring it on
                  D5              Em            D5   Em  D5
Heart beats with fear here in the theatre of my soul

            C             D5
You see, I hope it will go on and on
     C                D5
And when the curtain call is done
(Em  D5)
Morning always comes

          Em             D5   Em
It was a fine time to be born
       D5               Em               D5   Em  D2
De-mob happy street and free milk for us all
            Em               D5   Em
It was the right place to be sure
                D5               Em    D5       Em  D5
Those dreaming spires and, yeah, oh so pastoral

           C                 D5
But let's hope it’s not just luck and strange
  C                D5
A one-off peaceful goldеn age
         Em                 D5.     Em  D5
That's a dark thought in the dark

G/D                   C#m6                     C
  Seek what you won't find, that is a wasted lifе
                                 Em
Or so the Ancients dropped by to tel me
G/D             C#m6          C         (Em  D5)
  They drank me dry but my oh my so far

          Em           D5   Em
Quite the time to be a boy
            D5             Em          D5    Em  D5
Six-string masters of an expanding universe
         Em               D5   Em
It was a high time to be sure
            D5            Em            D5     Em  D5
Soaring and free from the bounds of the Earth

           C                 D5
But let’s hope it's not just luck and strange
  Em               D5
A one-off peaceful golden age
         Em                  D5   (Em  D5)
That's a dark thought in the dark

G/D                       C#m6                                   C
  Time for this mortal man   to love the child that holds my hand
                                  Em
And the woman who smiles when I embrace here
G/D               C#m6          C         (Em  D5)
  These eyes stay dry but my oh my guitar
