14.Tales Uriah Heep

Thema:   Am   Em G Am

1. Vers1
   Am                                       Em G  Am    Em G Am
We told our tales as we sat under mornin's sleepy sky
Am                                             Em G    Am    Em G Am
with all the colours of the sunrise    shining in our  eyes
F                                    F  F            Am      Em G Am
One, then another with a story of  yes-ter-day's    lives
F                                    F  F           Am      Em G Am
or of a lover who had gone in a      mo-ment of strife


2. Vers2
Am                                             Em G  Am    Em G Am
No thought of sleep ever dwells upon the wise man's mind
Am                                             Em G  Am    Em G Am
Some task or audience stealing every moment of his time
F                                                   F F Em     Am    Em G 
Am
Thus we have learned to live while mortal man stand waiting to die
F                                           F  F   G       Am      Em G Am
How can we do what must be done  in just   one   short     life?


3. Bridge
     Cm                           Gis                                   F
And if you ask, then you should know, if you still doubt you should be 
told, 
                           Gis                             Am      Em G Am
it was not we that made it so, it was by those who went befooooooooooore...


4. Refr..
Am                  Em  G    Am
And there you sit tomorrow's child, 
Am                  Em  G    Am
so full of love so full of life, 
Am                  Em  G    Am
but you must rise to meet the day, 
Am                  Em  G    Am
lest you   become   another tale, 


5. (repeat Refr.. and FADE out)


Am                  Em  G    Am
