Marking the start of a more electronic feel, “Missing” was a huge turning point for “Everything but the girl”. An awesome track that happens to be very easy for flute or piccolo 🙂
A A B A-G
Step off the train
E A – A A G A B-A-B
I’m walking down your street again
E B A-G A-G
And past your door
E A A A G F#-E-E
But you don’t live there anymore…
E F# F# G A G-F#
It’s years since you’ve been there
E A G A – G – A B – A – B
And now you’ve disappeared somewhere
E B – A A – G
Like outer space
E A B A-G F#
You’ve found some better place
E F# G B
And I miss you
A B ^C-^C ^C ^D ^C-B
Like the deserts miss the rain
E F# G B A-G
And I miss you, oh…
A B ^C-^C ^D ^D ^C-B
Like the deserts miss the rain
A A B A-G
Could you be dead?
E A-A A G A B-A-B
You always were two steps ahead
E B-AG-AG
Of everyone
G A A – A G A B A-B
We’d walk behind while you would run
B B B ^C ^D ^C-B
I look up at your house
B B ^C-B A A B A A B
I can almost hear you shout down to me
B B A – A A G A
Where I always used to be
E F# G B
And I miss you
A B ^C-^C ^C ^D ^C-B
Like the deserts miss the rain
^D ^C B A-B A-G
And I miss you, oh
A B ^C-^C ^D ^D ^C-B
Like the deserts miss the rain…
