Текст песни Hal Ketchum — In Front Of The Alamo + аккорды для гитары
Вступление
INTRO:
G B C - | C E D G see notations at bottom
G B C - | C - F# G
VERSE 1:
G B C - C E D G
In front of the Alamo, in the fading light of the Texas day
G B C - C C F# G
San Antonio, through the windshield of a Chevrolet
G B C C
With the front tires pointed out of town
D - D#dim -
She sighs and rolls the window down
Em - D A/C# - A -
Counts to three and throws that wedding band
CHORUS:
G B C - C E F# G
In front of the Alamo, that's a pretty good place to make a stand
INSTR. G B C - | C - F# G
VERSE 2:
G B C - C E D G
In front of the Alamo, where the cameras click and the tourists stare
G B C - C C F# G
A long, long time ago, she met the man in question there
G B C C D - D#dim -
She wanted trust, she wanted truth, the two things he found hard to do,
Em - D A/C# - A -
So forever was shorter than she planned
CHORUS
SOLO (OVER CHORUS)
BRIDGE:
C C C C C - C -
She didn't come for inspiration, or to
G G F# F# Em - Em -
breathe the mighty dust of heroes lost, she just
A7 - A7 -
felt the time was right, at this
A7 - A7 -
random traffic light, to say
Am - Am - D - D -
'Enough is enough' and move on
VERSE 3: (same)
In front of the Alamo, in the fading light of the Texas day
San Antonio, through the windshield of a Chevrolet
Maybe something in the air, makes the timid braver there
To cross the line that they've drawn in the sand
MODIFIED CHORUS OUT:
G B C - D D#dim Em C
In front of the Alamo, they held on, she lets go
G B C - [C - 2 extra beat line]
In front of the Alamo, that's a
C E F# G
pretty good place to make a stand
INSTR. G B C - | C - F# G (hold)
