This is my attempted correction of Gene's Tightrope by the stone roses.

He did all the work for this, I just came up with a couple chords where

he didn't have any......all credit goes to him....

Tightrope

E

You should have been an angel

D A

It would've suited you

D A

My gold leafed tripticu angel

D A E

She knows just what to do

In the half light of morning

In our world between the sheets

I swear I saw her angel wing

My vision was complete

D

And I know I'll never want

A E

Another lover my sweet

D

Can there be more in this

A

World than the joy of just

B

Watching you sleep

B

I don't know just what to feel

Won't someone tell me my

E D A

Loves real

E D A

E

Are we etched in stone

D

Or just scratched in the sand

A

Waiting for the waves to come

D A E

And return the land

Will the sun shine all

Sweetness and light

Or burn us to a cinder

Our third stone satellite

E

I'm on a tightrope baby

D

Nine miles high

A

Striding through the clouds

D A E

On my ribbon in the sky

E

I'm on a tightrope baby

D

One thing I've found

A

I don't know how to stop

G B A

And it's a long long long

D A E

Long way down

Shes all that ever mattered

And all that ever will

My cup in runneth over

I'll never drink my fill

The boats in the harbour

Slip from their chains

And head for new horizons

Lets do the same

Input is welcome and appreciated....
