Out of the Blue - by David Gilmour Tabbed by Michael Uzquiano
from the "About Face" solo album.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is my first attempt at tabbing a song, so please excuse any mistakes
that I may have made. Gilmour does a wonderful job with this song - quite
a lot of keyboard fillers and synthesization is used to create the musical
effect, but I've provided the chord changes, so it should be pretty easy
to piece together and play on either piano or guitar.
Note: I put the chords above the word to play on. However, since the song
is slow tempo, you'll have to hear the song to know where to play the chord
inside of the lyric.
[-----]Verse
[-----]
[Bb]Out of the [F]blue,
On the [Bb]wings of a [F]dove,
A [Bb]messenger [F]comes,
with the beating of [C]drums,
it's not a message of [Bb]love
Our [Bb]children are [F]born,
and [Bb]we keep them [F]warm,
they [Bb]must have the [F]right
to live in the [C]light,
to be safe from the [Bb]storm.
And [Bb]out of the [F]blue,
with [Bb]wings on his [F]heels,
a [Bb]messenger [F]comes,
bearing [C]regrets
for the time that he [Bb]steals.
But [Bb]steal it he [F]will,
my [Bb]children's and [F]mine,
[Bb]against our [F]desires,
against all our [C]needs,
our blood spilled like [Bb]wine.
------
Chorus
------
[Dm]
[Dm]Over and [C]over we [Bb]call,
No one [Dm]hears... and further
and [C]further and [Bb]further we [F]fall...
Though we [Dm]brave it, we [C]soon will have [Bb]wait
It is [Dm]clear that it's no dream at [C]all,
our [Bb]lives are at [F]stake.
[Bb] [C]
[-----]Verse
[-----]
I [Bb]cannot [F]believe...
nor [Bb]even [F]pretend...
that the [Bb]thunder I [F]hear,
will just [C]disappear,
and the nightmare will [Bb]end.
So [Bb]hold back the [F]fire,
because [Bb]this much is [F]true,
when [Bb]all's said and [F]done,
then ending will [C]come,
from out of the [Bb]blue.
[F] [Bb] [F] [C]
