The Ghost of Rockschool Belle and Sebastian
I'm getting old, can't pick out the chords from the mix
as well as I used to. This is close, but let me know if
you have a correction. I think there's a quick F chord
played on the keyboard in the intro.
G=320033
Csus2=X32033
Capo 1
[G] [F-C] [G] [F-C]
I've seen [G]God in the sun I've seen [Csus2]God in the street
[G]God before bed and the [Csus2]promise of sleep
[G]God in my dreams and the [Csus2]free ride of grace
But then it [D]all disappears...and then I [Csus2]wake up
[G]Was it too late? Was it [Csus2]just your fate?
There's a [G]demon that waits at the [Csus2]garden gate
If you [G]get past him maybe [Csus2]Lawrence and Phil
Will be [D]waiting to take you to the [Csus2]ghost of rockschool
[G] [C] [G] [C]
[G]Everything hums as the [Csus2]blue heart turns
And the [G]blue girls guard us when the [Csus2]sun goes down
A [G]story tonight is from your [Csus2]solitude heights
I got a [D]window on your con[Csus2]stellation
[G]Master I love from the [Csus2]ground above
There's the [G]stars below as my me[Csus2]mory flows
Every [G]picture frame is beating [Csus2]louder than time
Every [D]clock in the hall is bending [Csus2]slowly
[G] [C] [G] [C]
[Am] [Bm] [Am] [Bm]
[D] [C] [D] [C]
[G]She's in her tower and she's beautiful, sure
The quicker you learn she has no soul to discern
At least no business of yours. You bear the vacuum of scars
She was [D]put there to tempt you like the [C]perfume of flowers
[D] [G]
I've seen [G]God in the sun I've seen [Csus2]God in the street
[G]God before bed and the [Csus2]promise of sleep
[G]God in my dreams and the [Csus2]free ride of grace
I've seen [D]God shining up from her re[Csus2]flection
I've seen [G]God in the sun I've seen [Csus2]God in the street
[G]God before bed and the [Csus2]promise of sleep
[G]God in the puddles and the [Csus2]lady's sad eyes
I've seen [D]God shining up from her re[Csus2]flection
