Please No More Sad Songs

The Idle Race

Tom original: Em Capotraste: Sem capotraste Acordes: 9
Em
Tabbed by: Robert McMillan
Tuning: Standard
The Idle Race, the band Jeff Lynne was in before he joined the Move
(and therefore - before ELO). I am surprised that they are not already
in the Ultimate Guitar database, so thought I'd post one.
(Here's a link to their biog - they have long since split.
The F D chord sequence at the end of the verses is the same as the intro riff.
The F might be better as an Fmaj7, the F sounds right to me. Also, I am not
sure that the guitar fill after the first chorus is right, it's very
fast and I'm not particularly good at picking those bits up. I play
rhythm more than lead, so...
Corrections and comments welcome.
Intro

Verse
=====
G                        Em
Yes she's leaving on the train,
                   C
Never coming back again,
    D             D7    F D (intro riff)
The lines go far ahead.
G                        Em
Got a job fixed in the city,
                         C
Wants to be a star she's pretty,
    D             D7      F D (intro riff)
And I don't get a part.
Chorus
======
   G              B7

I heard enough today,
         G                 Am    D        C        G
Isn't it nice, holding you tight,     remember- er-er
Verse
=====
                        Em
Left a note here on the floor
                            C
Where she used to knock the door
  D                D7     F  D (intro riff)
I found when I got home
G                        Em
  Said you're gonna be a singer
                  C
Be a star, a real swinger,
  D              D7      F  D (intro riff)
I hope it's very nice.
Chorus
======
   G              B7

Bridge
======
F                  Em            D
   Thought she was joking when I looked around
F              Em               Am
   Went to her room and saw her things had gone,
    Cm
She must have flown
   G          B7
Oh Ahhhhh ahh ahhh ahhhhh
F              C

Verse
=====
G                        Em
Guess she's left upon a train,
                   C
Never coming back again,
    D                D7    F D (Intro riff)
The lines went far away.
G                        Em
Got her job in the big city,
                         C
She became a star so pretty
    D                D7      F D (Intro riff)
Now I don't know her name.
