One of my all time favourite songs – if you don’t know it already please check it out, the story is lovely and the video is awesome 🙂
…it’s told through the eyes of a young boy, whose mad-scientist dad creates a machine which can control the weather, which ultimately gets confiscated by the government. Off her 1985 ‘Hounds of Love’ album, enjoy the song letter notes below!
B ^D G E A-A-E
I still dream of Orgonon
E G G G-F#-D
I wake up crying
D B – ^D G E D A A E
You’re making rain and you’re just in reach
E G E G E-G-F# D
When you and sleep escape me….
E G F# D-ED A B E D D
You’re like my yo-yo that glowed in the dark
G G F# D-ED A B E-D-D
What made it special made it dangerous
G F# D-E D E D-G
So I bury it, and forget….
E A-A A A G
But every time it rains
E A A A G
You’re here in my head
E E A A-A G
Like the sun coming out
A A B ^C B B – A A G G – E G – A
Ooh, I just know that something good is gonna happen
E G G E-D
I don’t know when
A B ^C-B B A A-G G E G – A
But just saying it could even make it happen
B ^D ^D ^D G
On top of the world
E – D A-A A E
Looking over the edge
G E G E G-F-#D
You could see them coming
D B ^D G
You looked too small
E D A A E
In their big, black car
D G F# G G F# G F# D
To be a threat to the men in power
