____________________ / Rufus Wainwright / I think this song obviously is about a crush on his / The Art Teacher / art teacher. I love especially the second verse for / Want Two / it's line "And never could I tell him it was him". Do I /___________________/ have to reapeat that Rufus is simply a genious? ;) *Intro: _E_A_D_G_B_E_ | Ebm/gb | Ebm/gb | Ebm/gb | Ebm/gb | | | | | | | | | Ebm/gb | x 9 8 8 7 x | | | Bb/f | x 8 8 7 6 x | *1st Verse: | | | Ebm/gb | Ebm/gb | Bb/f | Bb/f | Bbdim/E | x 7 8 6 5 x | | | | Bbdim/E | Bbdim/E | Eb7sus4 | Eb7 | Eb7sus4 | x 6 6 6 4 x | | | | B/eb | B/eb | Gb | Gb | Eb7 | x 6 5 6 4 x | | | | Abm | Abm | Abm / A Abm | gb | B/eb | x 6 4 4 4 x | | | Gb | 2 4 4 3 2 2 | | | *2nd & *3rd Verse: Abm | 4 6 6 4 4 4 | similar to 1st verse, and extended with this: | | A | 5 7 7 6 5 5 | | Abm | Abm | Abm | Abm | |_____________| _________________ | gb | gb | gb | gb | | | Abm7 | x 11 13 11 12 x | | | Bb/ab | x 11 12 10 11 x | *French Horn Interlude: | | similar to 1st verse, and extended with one | Gb | B/a | x 12 13 11 12 x | | | Bb | x 13 12 10 11 x | | | *Bridge: A | x 12 11 9 10 x | | Ebm/gb | Ebm/gb | Abm7 | Abm7 | | | Abm(add9) | x 11 8 8 0 x | | Bb/ab | Bb/ab | B/a / Bb A | | | B/gb | x 9 9 8 7 x | | Abm(add9) | Abm(add9) | | | Ab7 | x x 6 8 7 8 | | B/gb | B/gb | Ab7 | Ab7 | | | Abm7b5 | x x 6 7 7 7 | | Abm7b5 | E7 | -/D | -/db -/B | | | E7 | x 7 6 7 5 x | 5/4 | | | Gb(addb13) | Gb(addb13) | E7/d | x 5 6 7 5 x | *check out the fill for these two bars | | E7/db | x 4 6 7 5 x | | | E7/b | 7 x 6 7 5 x | *4th Verse: | | similar to 2nd & 3rd verse, but hold the Gb(addb13) | 2 4 4 3 3 x | | Eb7 | for four bars and end after the |_|__|__|__|__|_|_| second bar of | Gb | 4/4 5/4 gb(addb13) gb(addb13) + + + + + + + + + |---10-9---------------|-----------------------| |--------11------------|-----------------------| |-----------11---------|-----------------------| |-4------------12-11-8-|-----------------------| |----------------------|-9---------------------| |-2--------------------|---10---9---6---2------| There I was in uniform Looking at the art teacher I was just a girl then Never have I loved since then He was not that much older than I was He had taken our class to the Metropolitan Museum He asked us what our favourite work of art was And never could I tell it was him Oh, I wish I could tell him Oh, I wish I could have told him I looked at the Rubens and Rembrandts I liked the John Singer Sargents He told me he liked Turner Never have I turned since then No, never have I turned to any other man All this having been said I married an executive company head All this having been done A Turner - I own one And here I am in this uniformish, pant-suit sort of thing Thinking of the art teacher I was just a girl then Never have I loved since then No, never have I loved any other man - 3rd /April /08 Just mail me at Maitinin@gmail.com with questions, comments and corrections!
