Текст песни с аккордами
Вступление
[Verse 1]
A E D E
To write a cathedral, I'll need a ball-point pen
A E D E
It'll sound like 'Common People' sung by Christopher Wren
A E D E
On an upright piano with nice, narrow keys
A E D
In a Glaswegian chapel or a Parisian library
D F#m
And as I sing I watch you diving
E F#m C# D
Into a swimming pool that shines like a screen
[Chorus]
A E D
And I call out, 'isn't this living?'
A C#m
And I call out, 'isn't this living?'
E D
And you call back, 'Jim, dear, it's living'
E Bm
And you call back, 'Jim, dear, it's living the dream'
[Interlude]
A E D E x2
[Verse 2]
A E D E
I see my family in an ugly cemetery
A E D E
Two of them have been crying, two have shovels at the ready
A E D E
And I'd been lying if I said I'd foreseen this
A E D
I'd prefer to burn my body in Varanasi
D F#m
As I burn I watch you driving
E F#m C# D
Into a swimming pool that shines like a screen
[Chorus]
A E D
And I call out, 'isn't this living?'
A C#m
And I call out, 'isn't this living?'
E D
And you call back, 'Jim, dear, it's living'
E Bm
And you call back, 'Jim, dear, it's living'
[Bridge]
C# D
I wanted, I wanted kids getting into good schools
E
Following, breaking all the new rules
A E
Scoring goals, leading rolеs
D
Plimsolls, no holes
E
In a car with nice curves
F#m E D
A wifе with a perfect serve
E D E F#m E D
Just like the Mauritian Badminton Doubles Champion, nineteen seventy three
E A E D E
Then Christopher Wren would smile down on me
[Outro]
A E D E
To write oh
A E
To write a cathedral
D E
I'll need a ballpoint pen
A E
To write a cathedral
D E
I'll need a ballpoint pen
A E
To write a cathedral
D E
I'll need a ballpoint pen
A E
To write a cathedral
D
I'll need a ballpoint pen
