Shooting Shark

	  		

Intro: ( F#m E/F# Bm/F#  F#m )    ( A B )

                 A        B       A B        A          B          A B 
Well I bumped inside the magic man,  and he laid some tricks on me 
                  A    B                        A   E A         E A E A A B 
He said, "you do need help my friend", I whispered,    "obviously" 
             A       B              A B        A       B          A B 
He laid a spread of jacks and queens,  and he bade me take my pick 
           A       B                      A  E A    E  A   E A 
But every face it had your face, I cried out,   "I am sick" 

 E              B/D#  C#m                  B              A   B 
Sick of hauling your love around, want to run the train alone 
 E              B/D#    C#m                              B                A  A B C#m F#m 
But the engine tracks straight through your heart, and weighs me like a stone 

            F#m                              E/F#                     Bm/F# 
Oh, it's a hard load to love you, it takes up, all my time, having you 
                             F#m                 F#m E/F# Bm/F# F#m  A B 
So familiar, like last life's, nursery rhyme 
            A       B      A B             A   B   A B 
So I gave away the pictures,  and your golden ring 
                      A       B                A            E     A   E A E A A B 
And the phone calls that you sent me, and the silver birds, that sing 
                 A       B       A B              A         B  A B 
Then the man he told me something,  that really brought me down 
                    A     B                   A  E A      E   A       E A  
Your things were thrown away, it's true, but you,  were still in town 

 E              B/D#  C#m                B              A   B 
Sick of hauling your love around, wanna run the train alone 
 E              B/D#    C#m                              B                A  A B C#m F#m 
But the engine tracks straight through your heart, and weighs me like a stone 

           F#m                               E/F#                     Bm/F# 
Oh, it's a hard load to love you, it takes up, all my time, having you 
                             F#m               F#m E/F# Bm/F# F#m  A B 
So familiar, like last life's, nursery rhyme 
              A     B     A B            A     B   A B 
The magician let a message, it flashes when I hide 
             A        B                        A               E       A  
Accept the chains of loving, accept or else remove yourself, from her side 
 E  A                  E A A B                A       B        A B           A     B  A B 
And do without her love,      and I lay back with a steel chain,  I keep it by my side,  
            A    B                    A  E A       E   A    E A  
I could mail, a letter to you but I still,   have my pride 

 E              B/D#  C#m                B              A   B 
Sick of hauling your love around, wanna run the train alone 
 E              B/D#    C#m                              B                A  
But the engine tracks straight through your heart, and weighs me like a stone 
 E               B/D#     C#m                   B                  A   B 
Three times I've sent you back from me, three times my bones gone dry 
      E              B/D#      C#m             B                A  A B C#m F#m 
And three times I've seen the shooting shark, lighting up the sky 

           F#m                                  E/F# 
Oh, it's a hard load to love you, babe, it takes my breath away 
     Bm/F#                                  F#m                        
The fourth time round, is the last time round, there's nothing else to say 

Out Solo:  ( F#m E/F# Bm/F# F#m ) repeat and fade
