74 Swans Bell X1
One of my favourites from Bloodless Coup and a downright nice song.
It's the same chord progression repeated for each verse. Any comments/corrections welcome.
Standard Tuning
You counted [Bb]74 swans on the can*l[F]
You counted [Bb]74 swans on the can*l[F]
And you were g[Dm]lad it was an even number
Eve[C]rybody had another
No-o[Bb]ne was facing this cold al[F]one
Cold a[Dm]lone
Cold al[C]one
Cold al[F]one
They were gathered between bridges
in the steely sunshine
Bookend by ice on either side
Here comes a pair on final approach
Wings like great white bellows
Gathering inward to land
and it looks like grace
You counted 74 swans on the can*l
You counted 74 swans on the can*l
And you were glad it was an even number
Everybody had another
No-one was facing this cold alone
I thought you were right there with me,
on my left side
Too eager to get where I'm going,
I left you behind
But you were on the last watch,
The passing of the torch
You counted 74 swans, now there's 75
