The Kooks - Watching the Ships Roll In Chords

, , ,

Good afternoon everyone.

Today I felt like learning a new song on the guitar but didn't manage to find any tabs online. So if you feel the same way about The Kooks - Watching the Ships Roll in, here you go. Tabs and lyrics sound ok I guess.

Intro:
2x  Am | Am7 | F

   Am               Am7   F    
Watching the ships roll in
   C        E7      Am       Am7   F
hoping that I will still be his friend
          Am
in the morning

   Am           Am7        F
watching those ships roll by
   C         E7       Am    Am7  F
wishing that I could move this earth
      G
if I could
                Am
for you I would do

 Am             Am7  F            
I've got nothing to say
 F          Am7      Am
I've got nothing to lay at your feet
 Am           
I just keep hoping
 Am7       F               G               Am
hope that you will be the man that I couldn't be

Still watching the oceans move
if only I could show you my soul
and places I've been

watching the ocean come
and little girls playing in the sand as I walk
longing to listen to you talk

But I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to lay at your feet
I just keep hoping
hope that you will be the man that I couldn't be

I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to lay at your feet
I just keep hoping
hope that you will be the man that I couldn't be


Not sure if the names are correct. So feel free to correct me ;)

Jenny (Demo) // 2008

, , ,


After over six month of intensive rehearsals we finally managed to squeez out a tiny drop of sound from our guitars. Ok, maybe there are a few (countless :zip: ) more... but we either didn't manage to get a good copy on tape or we just didn't want to share quite now :wink: But ladies and gentleman. I hope you enjoy "Jenny" one of the few fine tunes my band and I managed to write so far. This was recorded pretty much while we were writing it (Ahhh - that's what DEMO means...) :idea: Chris had the lyrics, I had a melody and we both had too much beer. And no, we still don't have a name for the band. :wink: Press the tiny play symbol on the tape to get going.

PS.: Exams are almost over - yeay... :beer: :yikes: :beer:

The Cinematics - Live in Berlin

, , , ...

The time has finally come for "The Cinematics" to have their own gig in Berlin after playing before Snow Patrol early 2007. Introducing "The Amber Light" as well as "The Alones" the concert took about three hours in total. Since we managed to get up front into the second row, the noise put quite some pressure on our ears... as well as on my camera that semingly didn't know how to handly the volume. I put some pictures up into my gallery. So make sure to check that out.

Thanks for readling.

USA, Summer 2007 gallery online

,

After only :eyes: two month I finally managed to get throu my USA pictures from last summer.

The trip took us along the cost of california throu divers national parks as well as cities like San Fransico, Las Vegas and so on. This galery shows you only a few of many pictures I took with my brand new Nikon D40x during that three week trip. I hope you enjoy.

I didn't find the time yet to comment or tag any of it so you'll have to wait a little more for that. I also didn't manage to retouch my panorama shots... but I guess I can promise to do that sometime this year. :yes:

As usual if any of you would like some of my pictures in a higher resolution for printing or whatsoever let me know and I'll send them to you.
If there is anything else to say it is Happy New Year to everyone. :wink:

Thanks for reading.
