Paul Weller - Man Of Great Promise guitar chord

Your rating:

Man of great promise acoustic as played on better later than never with jools holland

Notes - Capo 2nd Fret, CHORD SHAPES PLAYED ASSUMING THE CAPO IS
THE NUT, mess around with the am and d chords as the weller puts in
suttle variationseach time 7ths and stuff. The chord I called f#m7b5
sounds good in both shapes i have shown I dont know if this is the
right name but who gives a fuck it sounds good. On the g to f# move
just hit the f# on the e string with some nice vibrato, then play the
open strings.

A basic song yes but it sounds very good when played with feeling

INTRO -
?? Em????????????????? Am Am7

I bought the paper yesterday
? ???? D???????? G G/F#
And I saw the obituary
???? ?? Em??? ????????????????? Am Am7
And I read of how you died in pain
?????? ? D??????????????? G G/F#
Well I just couldn?t understand it
Em??????????? ???? Am Am7
If I could of changed that
??? D???????????? G G/F#
The Lord knows I?d do it now
?? Em??? ????????????????? Am Am7
But there is no going back
?????? ????? D????????????Gmaj7 ??? G7
And what?s done is done forever
Cmaj7 ????
But you were always chained
??????? D
And shackled by the dirt
F#m7b5
Of every small town institution
?? ??? B7
And every big town flirt

 Em Am D G G/F#

Same pattern as first time round but with lyrics below

??????
And I think of what you might have been

A man of such great promise

Oh but, you seem to forget the dream
????????
And the more you saw you hated
????
But let?s not talk of blame
?????
For what is only natural
??????
Like a moth going to a flame
????
You had a dangerous passion
????
But you were always chained
??????
And shackled by the dirt

Of every small town institution
?? ???
And every big town flirt


Em?????? ?????? Am Am7
All the things that you might have been
???? D????????? G G/F#
But who am I to say?
???????? Em
Still I wonder
?? ????? Am???????????????? D??????????? G G/F#
If it?s in the cold earth you prefer to lay
Em????? ???? Am
Oh, If it?s in the cold earth
D???????????? G G/F#
You prefer to stay
Em?

Am? D? G
