The Stone Roses Tightrope Lyrics

Performed by the Stone Roses
I feel almost privileged to be able to play this song??as it is an
absolute masterpiece!!! ?.the roses best?.(almost)!!
It looks a lot harder than it is so just play about with the harder
chord sequences until u get the hang of the changes.
It sounds ssssoooooo good played electric or electro-accoustic but
is still good on a battered ?30 argos special!!!!
The only thing u need to remember is to feel what John must have
been feeling both playing and writing this song. I've even put the
fill-ins in for u and u can play about with them to your hearts
content as this is such a versatile tune!!!!!!! And some of the
chords may be simplified if needed!
ANYWAY NUFF SAID???????..NJOY!!!
Any changes or alterations or questions to

You should have been an angel, it would have suited you,
Dsus2 A Dsus2 Asus2 E5 E5 
My gold leafed triptych angel, she knows just what to do.
In the half light of morning, in a world between the sheets,
Dsus2 A Asus2 E5 E5 Dsus2
I swear I saw her angel wing, my vision was complete.
Dsus2 Asus2 E5 E5 
And I know I'll never want another lover, my sweet.
Can there be more in this world,
Asus2 B5alt
Than the joy of just watching you sleep?
I don't know just what to feel,
E E7sus4
Won't someone tell me my love is real?
 A Asus4 A  E E7sus4  A Asus4 A 
Are we etched in stone or just scratched in the sand,
Waiting for the waves to come and re-claim the land.
Will the sun shine, all sweetness and light,
us2
Burn us to a cinder, our third stone sat---e---lite.
I'm on a tightrope, baby, nine miles high,
Striding through the clouds on my ribbon in the sky.
I'm on a tightrope, baby, one thing I've found,
I don't know how to stop, and it's a
Long, long, long, long way down.
 E D  A E  E5  E5 
She's all that ever mattered and all that ever will,
My cup it runneth over, I'll never get my fill.
The boats in the harbour slip from their chains,
su
Head for new horizons, lets do the same.
I'm on a tightrope, baby, nine miles high,
Striding through the clouds on my ribbon in the sky.
I'm on a tightrope, baby, one thing I've found,
I don't know how to stop,
And it's a tightrope, baby, nine miles high,
Striding through the clouds on my ribbon in the sky.
I'm on a tightrope, baby, one thing I've found,
I don't know how to stop, and it's a
Long, long, long, long way down.
Love to all who play!!! Steve Holland
