Текст песни Van Dyke Parks — Clang Of The Yankee Reaper + аккорды для гитары
Вступление
A
The sun never set on the empire
A/G#
Prince Albert came in a can
F#m
If you expire before you retire
And end up an also-ran
It's fine time to drink tea from China
D F#
Do drop a line
Bb D
Let me know I am fine
D# B B/C# E/G#
Sun...
D# B B/C# E/G#
in the moonlight... in the moon
E E/D#
Gone, just like I said
C#m G#m
The good old days are dead
C#m G#m
Better get it through your head
C#m
As you harken to
G# B E
The clang of The Yankee Reaper
E/D#
It's like I said
C#m G#m
The good old days are dead
C#m
As you harken to
G# B E
The clang of The Yankee Reaper
A
Out in the rude wild abandon
A/G#
The Shah of Iran bought the plan
F#m
Seen with the Queen he was all smiles
He just bailed out the British Isles
It's time to drink tea from fine china
D F#
Just think of him
Bb D
When your light Starts to dim
D# B B/C# E/G#
Sun...
D# B B/C# E/G#
in the moonlight... in the moon
E E/D#
Gone, just like I said
C#m G#m
The good old days are dead
C#m G#m
Better get it through your head
C#m
As you harken to
G# B E
The clang of The Yankee Reaper
E/D#
It's like I said
C#m G#m
The good old days are dead
C#m
As you harken to
G# B E
The clang of The Yankee Reaper
A
Out in the rude wild abandon
A/G#
The Shah of Iran bought the plan
F#m
Seen with the Queen he was all smiles
He just bailed out the British Isles
It's time to drink tea from fine china
D F#
Just think of him
Bb D
