Текст песни с аккордами

    	    	Вступление

[Intro]
F#m         E F#m x2

[Verse 1]
F#m
Sliding along by the Seine, it's May Day
F#m
This song'€™s in my head once again
       E                                       F#m
It's a long way down to the bottom we've been racing
F#m
Coughing my lungs up on Rue des Irlandais
F#m
Becoming a risk to myself
        E                                     F#m
It's a long way down to the bottom and we're racing
F#m
The radio silence and the anarchists
F#m
Are gathering names, dates and lists for burning
        E                                          F#m
It's a long way down to the bottom that we've been racing

[Bridge]
A                     F#m
Oh, how you move me, truly
A                         F#m
Oh, how you set my heart aglow

[Verse 2]
F#m
I'€™m shadowing in with the crowds unnoticed
F#m
Somebody painted an '€™X' on my back
        E                                     F#m
It's a long way down to the bottom and we're racing
F#m
Piss on the streets after dark in Paris
F#m
Even on dear Joan of Arc, she knows
        E                                          F#m
It's a long way down to the bottom and we've been racing

[Chorus]
  Bm
Even the gods as they gaze down on us
 E
Know that there's no one to be saved among us
          F#m                   E
They keep turning away, turning away
  Bm
We're singing along with the righteous people
  E
The bullets will rain down from the mosques and steeples
            F#m                  E
They keep turning away, turning away

[Verse 3]
F#m
A taste for the wine and a woman's forgiveness
F#m
Her man's in decline, oh, it's a nasty business
        E                                          F#m
It's a long way down to the bottom that we've been racing
 F#m
Our blood is no thicker than this water, my brother
F#m
You'll find out soon one way or the other
        E                                           F#m
It's a long way down to the bottom that we've been racing

[solo]
F#m         E F#m x2

[Chorus]
 Bm
Even the clouds that send the rains down on us
 E
See a horizon that goes way beyond us
           F#m                   E
We keep drifting away, drifting away
  Bm
While down in the dark in the tick-tock alleys
 E
Time's running out and there's still bills to tally
           F#m                   E
We keep chipping away, chipping away

[break]
F#m         E  x4

[Verse 4]
F#m
Sliding along with the bouquinistes
F#m
Baldwin and Brecht and the distance between us
        E                                           F#m
It's a long way down to the bottom that we've been racing
F#m
I'm rising up strong like a snake that's charmed
F#m
A handsome Parisienne on my arm
       E                                            F#m
It's a long way down to the bottom that we've been racing

[outro]
F#m         E F#m x4
