0898 Beautiful South

The Beautiful South were a British pop group formed in 1989, from the ashes of Hull, England group The Housemartins. The band was put together by lead singer, Paul Heaton, and drummer, Dave Hemingway. They were joined by sean welch (Bass), Dave Stead (Drums) and Dave Rotheray (Guitar). Rotheray also co-writes the songs with Heaton.  In The Beautiful South, Heaton shared the lead singer's role with Hemingway and female singer Briana Corrigan to create a trio of lead vocalists. This set-up helped to characterise the bittersweet kitchen sink dramas played out in Heaton's often-barbed songs.

Old Red Eyes Is Back

G
Old Red eyes is back
A7             C                G
Red from the night before the night before
G                A7               C      G
Walked into the wrong bar walked into a door

              G
Old Red's in town
      
      A7              C               G
And sitting late at night he doesn't make a sound
G           A7              C               G
Just adding to the wrinkles on his deadly frown

              G                A7             C       G
They're only red from all the tears that I should've shed
              G                A7             C      G
They're only red from all the women that I could've wed
             G               A7     C          G
So when you look into these eyes I hope you realise
                     

                     G
They could never be blue
A7                   C
They could never be blue
G                    G
They could never be blue
A7                   C     G
They could never be blue

               G
Listen up Old Red
     
     A7            C               G
You never listened to a word the doctor said
G           A7             C               G
He told you if you drank another you'd be dead

                 G
Old Red eyes is back
       
        A7               C             G
His shoulders ache all over and his brain is sore
G           A7               C            G
He pours a drink and listens to his body thaw
              G                  A7             C        G
They're only red from all the thoughts unused inside my head
              G                 A7                 C      G
They're only red from all the things I could have done instead
             G               A7     C          G
So when you look into these eyes I hope you realise
                     
                     G
They could never be blue
A7                   C
They could never be blue
G                    G
They could never be blue
A7                   C     G
They could never be blue

 G          A7              C G/B
Blue is a street without an end
 G           A7         C  G/B
Red is the colour of my hell
 G/D         A7           C    G/B
Blue is a greeting from a friend
 G/D         A7     C      G
Red is the colour of farewell

            G
Old Red he died
     
     A7             C               G
And every single landlord in the district cried
G          A7               C            G
An empty bottle of whisky laying by his side
   G           A7           C         G
A lazy little tear running from each eye
                     
                     G
They could never be blue
A7                   C
They could never be blue
G                    G
They could never be blue
A7                   C     G
They could never be blue

Old Red Eyes Is Back

One Last Love Song


F
I once had a friend who I loved from my Heart,
      Bb                       C7
But I went on and left her for I'd made a start,
        F
Now I'm moanin' the blues like the rest of the charts
Bb      C7
Take me back

        F
So I'll cry with a limp  just get by on a limp
           Bb                         F
Till these blue eyes of mine they are closed
   Bb                         F
So here's to an old fashioned peck on the cheek
    C7                         F
And farewell my sweet Northern Rose
	                  
                              Bb                        C7
Give me one last love song to bring you back, bring you back
        F               Bb                           C7
give me one last video, dressed in black, dressed in black
Bb                         F
give him a chorus and that bit at the end
         Bb                        F
where he wails on and on 'bout the loss of a friend
Bb                                          C7
let him scream loudly 'well this love could mend'
                   F
Let it die, let it die

F                          
Those bloody great ballads we hated at first
       Bb               C7
well I bought them all, now I'm writing worse
        F
Save me from baldness and saving the earth
Bb      C7
Take me back

         F
And I'll smile with a limp  And I'll love with a limp
         Bb                    F
Till the clouds disappear from above
    Bb                       F
And as the storm moves away, all I can say
   C7                                   F
Is there's a towel in the door for your love
                              Bb                        C7
Give me one last love song to bring you back, bring you back
        F               Bb                           C7
give me one last video, dressed in black, dressed in black
Bb                         F
give him a chorus and that bit at the end
         Bb                        F
where he wails on and on 'bout the loss of a friend
Bb                                          C7
let him scream loudly 'well this love could mend'
                               F
Let it die, let it die, let it die.

One Last Love Song

D         Bm           G              A
If, if you choose that we will always lose
               D  Bm         E   A
Well then I'll sail this ship alone
    D            Bm          G           A
And if, if you decide to give him another try
               D  Bm         Em   A
Well then I'll sail this ship alone

          G                   A
Well they said if I wrote the perfect love song
D                 Bm
You would take me back
       G               Em
Well I wrote it, but I lost it
        A
And now will you take me back anyway

Now if, if you insist that this is for the best
Well then I'll sail this ship alone
And if, if you swear that you no longer care
Well then I'll sail this ship alone

                    D    D7
I'll sail this ship alone
            G            A
Between the pain and the pleasure
                    D    D7
I'll sail this ship alone
            G              A
Amongst the sharks and the treasure
   G         A      G       A        G       A
If you would rather go your way then go your way
N/C
I'll sail this ship alone

If, if you're afraid that I won't make the grade
Well then I'll sail this ship alone
And if, if you agree to him instead of me
Well then I'll sail this ship alone

Well they said if I wrote the perfect letter
That I would have a chance
Well I wrote it, and you burned it
And now do I have a chance anyway

If, if you swear that you no longer care
Well then I'll sail this ship alone

[Chorus]

Well they said if I burnt myself alive
That you'd come running back

I'll Sail This Ship Alone

Think of you with pipe and slippers  Think of her in bed
Fmaj7             C                   D           G

Your love light shines like cardboard

Everybody's talking at me

Everybody's Talkin'

Intro: D  Bm  G  A

      D                              Bm
From Northernden to Partington it's rain
      G                             A
From Altrincham to Chadderton it's rain
      D                           Bm
From Moss Side to Swinton hardly Spain
        G                                    A
It's a picture postcard of 'wish they never came'

                 G                                   D
And whilst that deckchair in the garden it makes no sense
    A                                 D
It doesn't spoil the view or cause offence
       G                      D
Those Floridas, Bavarias and Kents
      A                                    D
Make gentlemen wear shorts but don't make gents

      D
So convertibles stay garage-bound
     Bm
Save after-sun for later
   G
If rain makes Britain great
     A
Then Manchester is greater
       D
As you dry your clothes once again
  Bm
Upon the radiator
G
What makes Britain great
      A
Makes Manchester yet greater

D  Bm  G  A

     D                                Bm
From Cheetham Hill to Wytenshawe it's rain
G                                     A
Gorton, Salford, Sale pretty much the same
       D                             Bm
As I'm caught without my jacket once again
    G                                   A
The raindrops on my face play a sweet refain

       G                           D
And as winter turns reluctantly to spring
        A                                      D
For the clouds above the city there's one last fling
G                                     D
Swallows build their nests, chaffinch sing
        A                                    D
And the sun strolls into town like long lost king

      D
So convertibles stay garage-bound
     Bm
Save after-sun for later
   G
If rain makes Britain great
     A
Then Manchester is greater
       D
As you dry your clothes once again
  Bm
Upon the radiator
G
What makes Britain great
      A
Makes Manchester yet greater

        G                                  D
And the mood of this whole sodden place is melancholy
         A                                       D
Like the sun came out to play, shone through the clouds but dropped its lolly
    G                               D
And everyone looks so disappointed, so, so sorry
         A                                  D
Like the rain blew into town, kidnapped the sun and stole it's brolly

G  A  D

      D
So convertibles stay garage-bound

        that I should have been home yesterday, yesterday.

Country Roads

Am      C              F              C
I had a dream, we were sipping whisky neat
        F              C                 G
Highest floor, the Bowery, and nowhere’s high enough
    Am              C                F             C
Somewhere along the lines, we stopped seeing eye to eye
         F               C           G
You were staying out all night and I had enough


      F           Am             F                    C       
No, I don't wanna know where you been or where you're goin’
      F               Am                 G
But I know I won't be home and you'll be on your own


            F                    C                G
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning?
            F                 C                 G
Who's gonna rock you when the sun won't let you sleep?
             F                C               G         E7   Am
Who's waking up to drive you home when you're drunk and all alone?
             F                    C                G
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning, it ain’t me


Am        C              G         F   
Ow-ow, ah-ah the Bowery, ow-ow, ah-ah whiskey neat

Am  C  Am       C              F           C
       I had a dream, we were back to seventeen
       F                   C            G
Summer nights and the Libertines, never growing up
Am             C          F                 C
I'll take with me the polaroids and the memories
        F              C                G
But you know I'm gonna leave behind the worst of us

School Friends

Verse 1:
G                                    Em        G        Em
There was a girl who lived in London town.
G                                 Em                   G      Em
The scenes and sounds, they would only bring her down
C                                   D
She had polkadots and rubies in her dreams,
C                   D
French fantasies on cinema screens...
        C             G/B    Am     G
And she knew from the finish to the start
C      G/B      Am   G
It was bound to fall apart
C         G/B     Am   Em
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.
Em                                D
Wouldn't it be sweet if she could die from a broken heart?

G     Em      G      Em

Verse 2: (the same chords)
There was a boy who lived inside his head.
He couldn't face the world, so he turned his back instead.
He couldn't see in front of his eyes;
His fantasies of outlaws had him hypnotised...

And he knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                        F
Wouldn't it be sweet if he could die from a broken heart?

   C              G           F
Behold his golden wings
       C              G         F
And behold his bronze bow.
                 C             G         F
Can you hear his silver arrows sing?
       C               G     
As his gaylied favours glow.

(then go back to the normal verse bit)

There was a boy and girl who fell in love:
They both were in love with the stars and sky above,
Cinderella, cigarettes and scenes from the past
Were chasing them too fast for this love to ever last...

And they knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                         F
Wouldn't it be sweet if they could die from a broken heart? 

C   G    F    C    G

Repeat F  C  G until the end. End on G.

Arrows Of Eros

Am
There's a sadness all around us
          F                         C
There are words we're too afraid to say
                                        Am
The things that I thought would last forever
    F              G
Are changing every day

          Am
There's a hunger can't be satisfied
        F                       C
And the streets are filled with rage
C                       Am
It's time to dig deep inside ourselves
F                       G
And face the life we've made

Am
It's gonna take two of us
C                           Am
Ijust can't do it all on my own
F				  C
I see the day gettin' brighter
G                    F
Hold me a little bit tighter

C                      Am      F
Out of the darkness in hand in hand
     Am               F        G
Baby together we will make our stand
C                             Am      F
Reach out and touch me we can win somehow
       Am              F                G
I know there's nothing that can stop us now
F              Am                 G   C
Oh, baby, come with me out of the darkness
