From: cbk8702@hertz.njit.edu (christopher b king bmed stnt) Subject: CRD: Squonk (Genesis) Date: 24 Oct 93 18:25:31 GMT Hello again! here's something a little newer, still from a time when Genesis was writing very creative songs. This one's actually written by Banks and Rutherford. Squonk by Genesis, from _A Trick of the Tail_ unless otherwise noted, chords are in open position. The intro is basically just like the first verse. (1) Dm7 C/D Like father, ... Dm7 C/D Not flesh nor fish nor .... Dm7 C/D Alive at both ends but a .... Dm7 C/D A-tumbling and a-... Em7/A F#m7/A All the king's horses .... Em7/A F#m7/A could never put a smile .... (2) follows the same pattern as (1) This is a "chorus" bit, which comes after: "...don't stand a chance" "...all to see at night" "...you'd better watch out" "...just a pool of tears" (repeat) D(no 3rd) G#o D7 D G/D D A/D G/D -5-5-5-5---4---5-|---2---3-3---------|-2-3-2-0----5-0----|---3------------- || -3-3-3-3---3---3-|---3---3-3---------|-3-3-3-2----2-2--3-|---3--3---------- || -2-2-2-2---4---5-|---2---4-4---------|-2-2-2-2----2-2--0-|---0--0----------*|| -0-0-0-0---0---0-|---0---0-0---------|-0-0-0-0----0-0--0-|---0--0----------*|| -----------------|-------------------|-------------------|----------------- || -----------------|-------------------|-------------------|----------------- || chance. you don't ... tears. just a pool ... out. night. They don't ... Bridge 1 The second time through the bit above, the measure of the G/D chord becomes in 5/4 time, with a Gm6/D on the second half of beat 2. This only happens here, leading into the first bridge. C/D Dm7 Gm7 Gm Dmsus2,4 Dm add E Go a little faster now, you ... F Am7 Dm7 Dm7 Em7 Dm7 Em7 Mirror mirror ... Eb Bb F his heart was broken long ... Am7 Dm7 Dm7 Em7 Dm7 Em7 Stop your tears ... Eb Bb F The trail they leave is .... Am7 all to see at night (to "chorus") (3) like (1) In season, out of s.... (4) Here I am, I'm ... (to "chorus", no lyrics this time) Bridge 2 (just like bridge 1) I've got you, I've got .... (to "chorus") Second time through chorus, go up to an A chord on the second half of beat 2 (still in 4/4), then go to the ending Ending Bsus4 B F#m All in all you are .... A E Placing trust .... B You never had the things .. F#m and you'll not get ... A E B and all the while in perfect time ... Where this goes from there, I'm not sure. I think there's a C# after the B, but again I'm not entirely sure. But, this is the grand portion of Sqounk, so don't let a little thing like the ending stop you from enjoying it! -Chris
