Song for Clay (Disappear Here)
A Weekend In The City, 2007
 
By Martin Topf,
Skørping, Denmark.
 
      Bbm            F
I am trying to be heroic
      F#        C#   G#
In an age of modernity
      Bbm            F
I am trying to be heroic
             F#            D#m D#m7
Because all around me history sings
 
 
      Bbm             F
So I enjoyed and I devoured
           D#m         C#  C#maj7
Flesh and wine and luxury
           Bbm
But in my heart
      F
I am lukewarm
        F#        F#         Bbm
Nothing ever really touches me
 
 
Riff:
 
Bbm C# D#m F D#m F F# G#
 
 
Bbm             F#
At Les Trois Garcons
              D#m         Bbm
We meet at precisely 9 o'clock
  Bbm         F#
I order the foie gras
          D#m                       Bbm
And I e-e-e-eat it with complete disdain
Bbm              C#
Bubbles rise in champagne flutes
      Fm                 Bbm
But when we kiss, I feel nothing
Bbm           C#
Feasting on sleeping pills
     Fm       Bbm
And Marlboro Reds
 
(So busy won't save you)
 
 
 
Bbm C#  D#m F D#m F
Oh how our parents
      F# G#        Bbm   C#
They suffered for nothing
          D#m    F          D#m            F
Live the dream, live the dream, live the dream
         F#   G#    Bbm      C#
Like the 80s never happened
    D#m F     D#m         F
People are afraid, are afraid
    F#   G#m      Bbm C D#m F D#m F
To merge on the freeway
F#    G#
Disappear here
Riff:
 
Bbm C# D#m F D#m F F# G#
 
Bbm         F#
Stroll the pier
          D#m               Bbm
Into the magazine launch party
     Bbm       F#
I am handed a pill
              D#m                    Bbm
And I swa-a-a-allow with complete disdain
Bbm                 C#
Kick-drum bangs off the high-hat
   Fm           Bbm
Remember to look bored
   Bbm               C#
We suck each others' faces
    Fm                Bbm
And make sure we are noticed
 
 
(Cocaine won't save you)
 
Because East London is a vampire
 
It sucks the joy right out of me
 
How we long for corruption in these golden years
 
 
Bbm C#  D#m F D#m F
Oh how our parents
      F# G#        Bbm   C#
They suffered for nothing
          D#m    F          D#m            F
Live the dream, live the dream, live the dream
         F#   G#    Bbm      C#
Like the 80s never happened
    D#m F     D#m         F
People are afraid, are afraid
    F#   G#m      Bbm C D#m F D#m F
To merge on the freeway
F#    G#
Disappear here
