====================================== CIRQUE=====================================
by Peter and Kerry
tabbed by Sam Smollen
Hey, so I'm trying to tab out some of Peter and Kerry's songs. I do it by ear with a friend.
Peter is the part I play, while she has learnt Kerry. (Fitting isn't it?)
Capo 4th Fret
I think their guitars are tuned 1/4 step sharp from standard..
Listen to the song on YouTube to know when to play the finger picking part and the strumming part.
I'll add Kerry's part another time.
CHORDS:
*Note 'E/G#' is just E MAJOR, but songs cooler played this way :)

VERSE 1 -
Amaj7
I left, after 8
E/G# E7
To board the plane to Montreal
Amaj7
To see what fortune lay ahead
Amaj7
It's true, I was scared
E/G# E7 Amaj7
I didn't have two cents to rub together to keep me hydrated and fed
CHORUS -
Amaj7
Nobody thought that
I would really do it
They said I talk the talk but never follow through
E/G# E7
Now I'm 24 it's been 6 years
Amaj7
And still they all think I'll crack at any minute
VERSE 2 -
Amaj7
My bone, too weak and tired
E/G# E7 Amaj7
But not enough to stop me seeking out the place where I belong
Amaj7
And it took about 6 days
E/G# E7 Amaj7
All I remember were the glowing lights of cirque du soleil
CHORUS -
Amaj7
Nobody thought that
I would really do it
They said I talk the talk but never follow through
E/G# E7
Now I'm 24 it's been 6 years
Amaj7
And still they all think I'll crack at any minute
