Regina Spektor — All the Rowboats
This is my first time ever working out the chords by ear - dunno if they're 100% right (I expect not) but it work playing along to the song! As with lots of Regina's songs the singing isn't always on the beat with the chord so it helps to listen to the original to get the feel :3 Cm Gm All the rowboats in the paintings AbmFm They keep trying to row away Cm Gm And the captains ' worried faces Abm Fm Stay contorted and staring at the waves Cm Gm They'll keep hanging in their gold frames AbmFm For forever, forever and a day Cm Gm All the rowboats in the oil paintings AbmFm They keep trying to row away, row away Cm Gm Hear them whispering French and German AbmFm Dutch, Italian, and Latin Cm Gm When no one's looking I touch a sculpture Abm Fm Marble, cold, and soft as satin Cm Gm But the most special are the most lonely Abm Fm God, i pity the violins Cm Gm In glass coffins they keep coughing AbmFm They've forgotten, forgotten how to sing CGAbm Fm La La La La La Abm Fm La La La La La La Cm Gm First there's lights out, then there's lock up AbmFm Masterpieces serving maximum sentences Cm Gm It's their own fault for being timeless Abm Fm There's a price you pay and a consequence Cm Gm All the galleries, the museums Abm Fm Here's your ticket, welcome to the tombs Cm Gm They're just public mausoleums AbmFm The living dead fill every room Cm Gm But the most special are the most lonely AbmFm God, i pity the violins Cm Gm In glass coffins they keep coughing AbmFm They've forgotten, forgotten how to sing Cm Gm They will hang there in their gold frames AbmFm For forever, forever and a day Cm Gm All the rowboats in the oil paintings AbmFm They keep trying to row away, row away Cm Gm First there's lights out, then there's lock up AbmFm Masterpieces serving maximum sentences Cm Gm It's their own fault for being timeless AbmFm There's a price you pay and a consequence Cm Gm All the galleries, the museums AbmFm They will stay there forever and a day Cm Gm All the rowboats in the oil paintings AbmFm They keep trying to row away, row away...
