Аккорды к песне ​The Pretty Littles — Australian Dream

 
[Verse 1] 
 
C    Em          Am 
Here's a version of the Australian dream 
C    Em         Am 
Some outer suburb, in the 1950s 
C     Em            Am 
Exchanging pleasantries like a sport 
C      Em 
Keep it polite, 
   Am 
keep it short, firm hand shakes 
   C 
Have a nice day 
     Em         Am 
Oh would you look at that 
G    F 
Might be rain 
 
C G F 
C G 
 
[Verse 2] 
 
C       Em 
They had a few kids 
      Am 
Frank had a good job 
They looked the part 
C     Em         Am 
He wasn't a doctor, or a lawyer, But not far off, 
C    Em 
Church on Sundays 
           Am 
The kids, they were bright enough 
C        Em         Am G F 
Nothing for the neighbours to talk about 
 
C G F 
C G 
 
[Verse 3] 
 
C       Em 
but then dot changed 
Am 
after the last child came along 
C         Em 
Her behaviour became erratic 
    Am 
in her brain was substatic 
 C        Em 
And she gave the neighbours 
     Am 
Something to talk about 
     C         Em 
All the eyebrows starting raising 
   Am 
over  cuppas, scones and raisins 
  C      Em        Am 
Just a few bad days they'd say 
C      Em       Am G F 
She'll be right as rain 
 
[Chorus] 
 
G               C G    F 
Spooked like a horse in a passing storm 
  G            C G F 
Look away be the loveable larrikin 
  G                C G F 
Look away like we have from the beginning 
  G              C G     F 
I'm sleepwalking through your Australian dream 
 
[Verse 4] 
 
C       Em                 Am 
The old Holden started to shake until the wheels fell off 
C        Em 
Something wasn't right 
Am 
The numbers weren't stacking up 
  C          Em 
There's posttraumatic stresses 
  Am 
and financial pressures 
 C       Em    Am 
And all those kids, howling for attention 
C             Em         Am 
All those things that people just couldn't mention 
C       Em       Am 
Weak, soft as butter, stop seeking attention 
C        Em 
Two world wars, faught and won 
Am 
The dark days were over 
C      Em       Am           G 
All those boys died so we could live in peace 
F  G    C G F 
and prosperity 
G                 C G F 
everything's a blessing for you and me 
G              C G F 
and all those aches and pains 
       G 
theyre just tricks of the mind, 
   C         G     F 
theyre illusions a waste of time 
   G             C    G F 
I'm sleepwalking through your Australian dream 
 
[Verse 5] 
 
C    Em 
They put Dot in a home 
Am 
Sent her off to the funny farm 
C  Em 
Her problems couldnt be fixed 
Am 
with a walk around the block 
  C         Em                  Am 
they found her in the middle of the street crying out "arnt we lucky? aint life sweet?" 
C                Em 
frank couldnt deal with her mess 
 Am 
the kids were sent away with the shame of it 
C 
one of them was orphaned 
 Em            Am 
the youngest with mrs gorden around the corner 
         C 
the eldest he was six 
            Em 
stayed at home looking around 
   Am       G          F 
wondering where everyone had fucking gone 
 
[Chorus] 
 
G               C G    F 
Spooked like a horse in a passing storm 
  G            C G F 
Look away be the loveable larrikin 
  G                C G F 
Look away like we have from the beginning 
  G              C G     F 
I'm sleepwalking through your Australian dream 
 G                   C G F 
The mirage at the bottom of all your talking 
 
[Verse 6] 
 
C       Em 
after a few years 
Am 
things became stable 
    C        Em 
it was put down as suburban bad dream 
Am 
in some outer suburb in the 50s 
C        Em 
a speedhump, an anomaly, 
Am 
a strange turn in the quest for normality 
C     Em 
in the end they achieved their goal 
Am                            C       Em     Am 
everyone including the neighbours stopped talking about the entire episode 
  C 
but what of the hangover 
 Em 
the dodgy foundations 
Am 
supporting the next generation 
C            Em 
all those things i mentioned 
Am 
mis-rememebered 
too embarrassed to admit it 
 C               Em     Am 
to committed to a concept to express ? 
  C      Em                     Am 
and anyways we got all those photos hanging on the wall 
But dont the eyes say it all 
C             Em 
But dont the eyes say more 
    Am      G    F 
than the smiles ever could 
 
[Chorus] 
 
G               C G   Am 
Spooked like a horse in a passing storm 
  G            C G F 
Look away be the loveable larrikin 
  G                C G F 
Look away like we have from the beginning 
  G              Am G     F 
I'm sleepwalking through your Australian dream 
 G                   C G F 
The mirage at the bottom of all your talking 
G              Am G F 
How Do we fix something so broken 
G                Am G F 
How Do you fix something so broken 
 G               Am      F 
And what of the giant when hes broken
