Solsbury Hill Uke tab by Peter Gabriel

[intro]
A                 E   A
A                 E   A
Climbing up on Solsbury Hill
A                E   A
I could see the city light
F#m                E  F#m
Wind was blowing, time stood still
F#m             E    A
Eagle flew out of the night
 
A               E   A
He was something to observe
A                  E   A
Came in close, I heard a voice
F#m                   E  F#m
Standing stretching every nerve
F#m              E      D
I had to listen had no choice

[Chorus 1]

  F#m       A           D
I did not believe the information
F#m   A           D           
Just had to trust imagination
D7M   E        F#m       
My heart going boom boom, boom
D7M       E       
Son,    he said
D           A          E      
Grab your things, I've come to take you home.

A  Asus4 E  D
                Eh, don't quit
A Asus4 E  D

[Verse 2]
A                  E  A
To keeping silence I resigned
A                         E  A
My friends would think I was a nut
F#m             E  F#m
Turning water into wine
F#m               E      A
Open doors would soon be shut

A              E      A
So I went from day to day
A                  E   A
Though my life was in a rut
F#m                  E   F#m
'till I thought of what I'd say
F#m             E         D
Which connection I should cut

[Chorus 2]

F#m   A           D
I was feeling part of the scenery
F#m  A         D    
I walked right out of the machinery
F#m  A           B       
My heart was going boom boom boom
F#m      A    
Hey,    he said
D           A          E       
Grab your things, I've come to take you home.

[Post-Chorus 2]

A  Asus4  E  D
                Yeah back home
A  Asus4  E  D


[Verse 3]

A              E     A
When illusion spin her net
A                 E    A
I'm never where I want to be
F#m            E  F#m
And liberty she pirouette
F#m                E  A
When I think that I am free

A             E        A
Watched by empty silhouettes
A                         E   A
Who close their eyes, but still can see
F#m                 E  F#m
No one taught them etiquette
F#m            E    D
I will show another me

[Chorus 3]

F#m   A           D
Today I don't need a replacement
F#m  A                   D    
I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant
F#m  A        B       
My heart going boom boom boom

F#m     A   
Hey,    I said
D           A          E      
You can keep my things, they've come to take me home
A  Asus4  E  D   A
