  			Tickets To Waterfalls (Jack Bruce – Pete Brown) 

I’m not entirely sure about the Ab E7 bit 

Introduction Piano Lick  

The melody suggests Am Dm Bdim  E F then 

Am   C   F  F F F G     Am   C   Ab7   E7 
      
C  D  E      Ab  Bb  C  D  E 

verse 1 
Am        F               D      G   
I bought you tickets for the waterfalls 
     E     F         G         Am 
And you poured away all the change 
    Am        C           F    F  F  F  G 
Trained your bicycle to dance 
         Am             C            Ab7       E7      
Told it tales of window boxes and people with locks 
            C      D       E 
While you filed away the time 
     Ab        Bb       C   D      E 
And lost the place in the river. 
verse 2 
    Am        F        D        G   
Couldn't do anything about the days 
        E      F       G          Am 
But I helped with some of the nights 
     Am        C           F    F  F  F  G 
You worked my blisters to the bone 
Am             C            Ab7       E7      
Playing songs of tiny men and bridges in wine 
           C      D       E 
While you led the time astray 
     Ab        Bb       C   D      E 
And lost your head in the rainbow. 
  
Bridge 1 (to 3)       G      D     F   

Bridge 2  (to 4)     C   G   Bb   F  
  
verse 3/4 
 Am        F               D      G   
You never saw anything glittering 
   E     F       G     Am 
But you had to melt it down 
     Am        C           F    F  F  F  G 
I made your rivers all run dry 
Am             C            Ab7       E7        
Soaked them up with train timetables and carpets of lies 
        C       D       E 
And I listened to your smile,  
     Ab      Bb      G      A    G   A  G   A  G   A  etc to fade 
&  found my place in the morning.
