TURIN BRAKES
5 Mile (These Are The Days)
-tabbed by Keir Alexander keiralx@yahoo.co.uk
This song wasn’t on the original release of Ether Song, but was written after the
Turin Brakes’ record company insisted on a single that would boost sales, it has
since been added to a new version of Ether song. Its a great song by a great
band, I noticed no-one has tabbed it as yet so I went ahead,

Song Lyrics and Structure…
(intro)
(verse)
D G
In the five mile high club
A D/F# G
You are done for
D G
Concentrate on landing
A D/F# G
The town looks peaceful
Jet planes fly too close to the ground
It makes these houses shake
Flimsy figures fall to the ground
In a sentimental earthquake
(bridge)
A G A G
Oh that's alright, that's alright
A G
That's alright sad song tonight, oh...
(chorus)
D G Asus4 G
These are the days that are driving me crazy
These are the days that are driving me insane
Everyday let your love shine down all around me
These are the days that are driving me crazy
(verse)
When brothers and sisters fall to the ground
In half hast harmony
Lots of dreams for their wide eyes
But a small reality
(bridge)
Oh that's alright, that's alright
That's alright sad song tonight, oh...
(chorus)
These are the days that are driving me crazy
These are the days that are driving me insane
(middle 8)
Take a train and then a jet plane
Travel back and forth in time
Pleased to meet you, what's your name?
I'm afraid I forgotten mine
(bridge)
Oh that's alright, that's alright
That's alright sad song tonight, oh...
(chorus)
These are the days that are driving me crazy
These are the days that are driving me insane
Everyday let your love shine down all around me
'Cos these are the days that are driving me crazy
These are the days - Let your love shine down on me
These are the days - Let your love shine down all around me
[end]
