Subject: CRD: Danger Ahead by Electric Light Orchestra

I'm not sure about the last line of the verse.  There are
some scale-type runs that add to the song (all in E maj - bass
run in the middle of verse descends from B to A one octave down - 
guitar run during chorus descends from D# to G#).

Danger Ahead
Electric Light Orchestra

"Transcribed" by Chris Gaasch

Verse:
         E                              D       A      E
Here she comes down the street and that look is in her eye
        E                D           A         B
And the way she looks if looks could kill they might
        A         G#m    F#m         E
All the kids down in the street run away
     B        A           G#m        F#m
When she goes by it's the end of the day
     E               G#m          A      B      E
So believe what they say, there's danger in the air

Verse:
Look through a window and you'll see her standing there
She's the latest of the greatest with the wind blowing in her hair
The prima donna is back in town
And you see her from miles around
So believe what they say, there's danger in the air

Chorus:
G#m             A       B
Beware, there's danger ahead
G#m         A         B
The endless summer is dead
G#m               A       B   E
Look out, there's danger ahead

Verse:
Monday morning she's already up and gone
She knows what she wants and she knew it all along
With her entourage on either side
Just one look she can't be denied
So believe what they say, there's danger in the air

Chorus:
Beware, there's danger ahead
The endless summer is dead
Look out, there's danger ahead

Verse:
She's got a reputation that's way ahead of her time
She's got adulation that's way ahead of her mind
Everybody runs around to please
When she looks in the mirror she just has to freeze
So believe what they say, there's danger in the air

Chorus:
Beware, there's danger ahead
The endless summer is dead
Look out, there's danger ahead
