Save a Prayer - Duran Duran cover

  • 13 years ago
I do like a bit of DD - this one by special request (although it took very little persuasion). I saw a clip of Andy Taylor and Simon Le Bon doing this acoustic version, so I borrowed the approximate style and changed the chords (as usual) to better suit my range.

Am C Fmaj7 D C Am
You saw me standing by the wall, corner of a main street
C Fmaj7 D G Am
And the lights are flashing on your window sill
C Fmaj7 D C Am
All alone, ain't much fun, so you're looking for the thrill
C Fmaj7 D G
And you know just what it takes and where to go

Chorus:
F#m Amaj7 D C#m E F#m
Don't say a prayer for me now, save it til the morning after
Amaj7 D C#m E
No, don't say a prayer for me now, save it til the morning after

Feel the breeze deep on the inside, look you down into your well
If you can, you'll see the world in all his fire
Take a chance, like all dreamers can't find another way
C Fmaj7 D G
You don't have to dream it all, just live a day

Pretty looking road I try to hold the rising flood that fill my skin
Don't ask me why, I'll keep my promise, melt the ice
And you wanted to dance, so I asked you to dance, but fear is in your soul

Some people call it a one night stand but we can call it paradise
