Hope Fell Down by Squeeze
Hope Fell Down
VERSE:
D Em7
You’re banging your drum
C G
You blow your own trumpet
D Em7
Your ship came in
C G
And your fanfare sunk it
D Em7 F G
The tide has turned, our love’s gone forever, ever
Em7 F#m7
I stand on the shore
G G/A
As it floats down the river, river
CHORUS:
D/F# F6
I had such hopes
Bb G G/A
I had such visions planned
D/F# F6
The frames were shot
Bb G G/A
But now our future’s canned
A6 G9
I had my hopes so high they fell right down
A6 G9
I had my hopes so high they fell right down
VERSE:
D Em7
I’m banging my head
C G
You watch without malice
(You watch with no interest at all)
D Em7
I bet all your friends
C G
Compare this to “Dallas”
(I might as well talk to a brick wall)
D Em7 F G
So under the arm I feel the cold shoulder
Em7 F#m7
So I’ll once again
G G/A
have to play the wild rover
REPEAT CHORUS:
INSTRUMENTAL:
D/F# G C/A C/B G/D G/E
D/F# G C/E C/A G G/A
D/F# F6 Bb G G/A
Do I need all this pressure
D/F# F6 Bb G G/A
Do I bury my temper
D/F# F6
I had my hopes so high they fell right down
A6 G9
I had my hopes so high they fell right down
D/F# F6 A6 G9
(Ad lib vocals)
D/F# F6 A6 G9
CODA:
D/F# G C/A C/B G/D G/E
