(intro):
I put on my raincoat to make it rain
and sure enough the skies opened up again
I dreamed of you as I walked to the shops,
you were dancing with the wallies on Top of the Pops
once in a while
Gennady Gerasimov drops his smile
and you can see that his aim's
a portfolio pregnant with gains
he's been up all night
moving the goalposts
like a jackdaw with a fiery brand,
spread the news all over this land
robin hood and his merry men
are never never never coming back again
(xylophone solo) :
(flugelhorn solo):
B-----3|0-1-3----------|3--------0h1-3-|3--(3/)5-------|-------------|
I don't believe that love should be pain
so would you please rub my back again
I think it's safe to leave them in the park
let's blow out the candles and kiss in the dark
heavens above
could this sticky stuff really be love
don't get dressed yet not yet
we've been up all night
moving the goalposts .|| x 2
For the picking in the verses, use slow arpeggios, emphasising the bass
notes. In the verses, pick all the "C C/B..." runs like the ones in the
intro.
