Elbow - Fly Boy Blue / Lunette


Fly Boy Blue
G minor, 4/4, 140bpm


Gm
It's a lethal ballet
Air traffic congestion
I'm having a baby
Second thoughts, scotch, dinner and
D
Someone?s dancing on the box
A former MP and no one?s watching
   Eb
My oldest friends are a serious habit
Fly boy blue, so bring your faces
D
Home to my sweet trampoline
And acres of crash site love

Gm 

D
Someone?s dancing on the box
A former MP and no one?s watching
   Eb
My oldest friends are a serious habit
Fly boy blue, so bring your faces
D
Home to my sweet trampoline
And acres of crash site love

Gm D Eb D

Gm
Presidential delays
Suppose I?m just lucky 
l'm having a shindig
Me, Red Bob and The Ivory Host
    D
And someone?s shouting on the box
A chinless prefect gone Godzilla
   Eb
My newest friends have forgotten my name
But so have I so far so good and home
D
You and me trampoline
And oceans of crash site love 

Gm D Eb D



Lunette
G major, 3/4, 140bpm


C G Em D (3x)

C
What can be said of the cigarettes smoked
  G
A prop for a joke or a mark on the clock
     Em
If I stopped would the bus ever come
                    D
Would the dawn ever kiss me forgivingly knowing what?s done 
          C
Would the drivel make scribble, make sense and then song
          G
Would the woodbines denied black another man?s lungs
   Em
Perverse as it may sound I sometimes believe
    D
The tip to my lips just reminds me to breathe


C
What can be said of the whiskey and wine
G
Random abandon or ballast for joy
         Em
That was scuppered with trust little more than a boy 
      D
And besides I?m in excellent company
    C
I?m reaching the age when decisions are made 
       G
on the life and the liver and I'm sure, last ditch 
          Em
that I'll ask for more time, but Mother forgive me
  D
I still want a bottle of good Irish whiskey
      C                                G
And a bundle of smokes in my grave


          Em 
But there isn?t words yet for the comfort I get
         D
From the gentle lunette at the top of the nape 
       C                  
of the neck that I wake to
    G
And where are the words for the leap in my chest
     Em
When mischief appears either side of the scar 
        D
on your nose, made by a rose thorn
       C                       (G)
So you claim, by a rose thorn
