Intro Chords and Riff:
B A E add a quick C#m just before repeating the intro
Intro riff is played four times then:
Dominion Road is bending;
under it's own weight,
Shining like a strip,
cut from a sheet metal plate,
E Play Intro once
Cause its just been raining.
(ii)
Janie reached the point where she knew what he
(ii)
meant before he opened his mouth,
(ii)
He couldnt say the same or hed have
(ii)
guessed she was moving south, with
(ii)
one of his friends.
But its getting better now, he found it in him to forgive,
He walked the city, and he found a place to live
In a halfway house,
E Play Intro twice
halfway down Dominion Road.
(ii)
He watched Janes brother sell the house he
(ii)
felt no sense of loss,
(ii)
More like a mountain-climber
(ii)
looking back having made it across
(ii)
the steepest face.
Oh but hes still climbing, see him trying to cross the street,
He tests his footing, like he was up ten thousand feet
F# E Play shortened intro
above the clouds, halfway down Dominion Road.
Shortened Intro:
Woah-Oohhhhh_______
Solo with Chords
But its getting better now, he rests his head on a window sill,
He watches the city, he can see the antennas in the hills
From the halfway house,
halfway down Dominion Road.
Last section - play twice
(ii)
Halfway down, halfway down
Halfway down Dominion Road
End with Intro Riff x4
