The Ballad Of Alessandro Moreschi

	  		This is how I play the song. Suggestions and corrections welcome! 

C F 
C Em C F Am  x2 

C                F            C           Em      C       F         Am 
How'd you never come to the thing by the bridge where we used to go out 
C                F                 C               Em   C        F          Am 
House you never climbed till our clothes were all worn with our face in the dirt 

            F            C             F         C 
So youâ??re stuck in the middle and you canâ??t get out 
F           C           F         G 
No oneâ??s laughing, no crying out loud 
F             C                 F         C 
You wanted something but you couldnâ??t get in 
F        C           F           G 
No one said we ever had to be friends 

C                 F          C       Em  C       F           Am 
Howâ??d you never leave that tired old car on the side of the road 
C               F           C          Em    C          F              Am 
Rocking to and fro, letâ??s grab all the box finish our drinks and weâ??ll go 

            F            C             F         C 
And we're stuck in the middle and you canâ??t get out 
F           C           F         G 
No oneâ??s laughing, no crying out loud 
F             C                 F         C 
You wanted something but you couldnâ??t get in 
F        C           F           G 
No one said we ever had to be friends 

Dm                                           Em 
Everybodyâ??s laughing at you as if you never gave them time 
                   Dm                     C  G 
Because I think I told you itâ??s not your crime 
Dm                                           Em 
Everybodyâ??s looking at you as if you never served them wine  
               Dm                     C  G 
And I think I told you itâ??s the right time 


F C F C F C F G x2 


C  F   C  Em C  F  Am 
Oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh  x4
