25th of December Everything But The Girl  Send mail  Print

 Here s "25th of December" by the vastly underrated duo of
 Everything But the Girl off their "Amplified Heart" CD.  Only a
 handful of chords but a beautiful song.  On the B  and F# I have
 written some chords next to them also - sometimes Ben uses these
 instead of the full bar.  Also, try adding on an F# on the high E
 string on the E chord.  Listen to the song to get the phrasing
 right - sometimes he sings fast and overruns the melody.

 And I never, no I never ever realised
 
 *same*
 Have I enough time  Have I just enough time
 To revisit, to go back, to return
 To open my mouth again
 And say something different this time
 And I see bags of newspaper and a car in the carport
 and you re a grown up and still unsure
 And I m thirty and I don t know nothing anymore
 And I never, no I never ever realised
 And I never, no I never ever realised
 
 *solo*
 C#m   E    B
 C#m   E    B
 C#m   E (hold)
 
 *same as other verses*
 And I m sitting, sitting at the top of the stairs
 And you re crying out by the towpath but the river
 With all the swans and people walking by
 And all of a sudden I m struck with an urge to 
 Unlock a door with a key thats too big for my hands
 and I drop it and it falls at your feet
 Come on, come on its there at your feet
       B           F#               E
 And I never, no I never ever realised
 
 E
 Come on, come on its there at your feet
      
       B           F#
 And I never, no I never ever realised
 
 E
 Come on, come on its there at your feet
