"Marrakech" by New Model Army (from the album "Impurity") ========================================================= Originally transcribed by: Juergen Bohn Updates : * 08 mar 2004, Juan Dapena , expansion and corrections Intro: D Em Bm G Bm D A Bm G G D Em Bm G Bm They found us in the courtyard at our table in the shade D A Em G We toasted our last few moments and then the end came D Em Bm G Bm They took us back to the airstrip, in that beaten up old car D A Em G And we rattled 'cross the African scrubland in silence E G E G Our hands locked together with cold steel cuffs E G Sometimes I wish it was still that way... D A B2 D Em Bm G Bm Now a whole world has died since then, so many faithless days D A Em G I was born alone and lucky and I'm just used to it that way D Em Bm G Bm My dice still roll in sixes and yours still turn up ones D A Em G And I've taken my good fortune and I've run and run E G But I always swore that I'd come back for you E G Is it too late now to come back for you ? D A B2 D Em Bm G Bm Now beneath this lonely junction on the north_bound M-6 D A Em G We spray our words of signature on the concrete bridge- D Em Bm G Bm And between the words of wisdom and the slogans of despair D A Em G Someone's just gone and written 'I'm sorry' there... E G Well I always swore I'd come back for you E G Is it too late now to come back for you? E G You're the only one I'll ever love D A B2 Original transcription by Juergen Bohn - 07/1998 ================================================ Each verse: D Em Bm G Em They found us in the courtyard at our table in the shade D A Em G We toasted our last few moments and then the end came D Em Bm G Em They took us back to the airstrip, in a beaten up old car D A Em G And we rattled avross the African scrubland in silence E G E G Our hands locked together in cold steel cuffs E G Sometimes I wish it was still that way...
