Anyone who actually has a taste in music will understand that this "drugged up, skinny wreck" is in fact, one of the greatest British musicians, ever. Despite the bad public image, Pete Doherty is an amazing poet cross rocker. He is a real English music icon.
I knew every word of this song, yet until I heard this (originally around 6years ago, and I keep coming back) I never truly appreciated it for the touching, emotional love song it is.
For those who were looking for tabs, I *think* he is playing tuned down a whole step, and has also transposed it down half a step (confusing!) So to play it in standard tuning, the chords would be A E and D for the verses, then A E Fm Bm in the chorus. This sounds about right!
Listen i appreciate pete, my idol is LG , but this man is class, enjoy him wile he's here.. better than anything recent and this is drugg up pete 11 years ago and still cooler and better than any modern artists.. geeza, c'mooooon
Although I was a big fan of Culture Club, I got so tired of hearing this song as it was so over-played. This version makes a welcome change...Thankyou Peter xxx
this is awesome. PLEASE dont cancel the babyshambles gig in MONTREUX!!! ive worked hard to get to see u all. so PLEASE.really. so excited=D lots of love from switzerland!
You see, the fact is we don't know how all these men would have been without drugs. Maybe they would've been even greater than they actually are. Or maybe drugs didn't change anything, and this is how they're meant to be. Peter Doherty is pure genius by the way, I love you Peter.
if you don't want to deal with the tuning business its verse: Bb / F / Eb / F / Eb / Gm / F chorus: Bb / F / Gm / Cm / Bb / F the "every day" bit is : Eb / Dm / Eb / Gm play that twice but on the second time strum the Gm for one bar and throw in an F. like Eb / Gm/F
Aye, don't do drugs with "pals". Always watch who you are hanging about with. You matter as a person, unique as Pete is he was addicted to hedonism as a replacement for love.
thanks for the chord info, I appreciate the assisstance, yeah tuning up and down is a pain, I ll have to learn this one the hard way, oh well , cheers and Pete is a legend
PETER WOW THE HAIR OK LOOKS GREAT ON U HAPPY HOLIDAYS COME PLAY LAS VEGAS ASAP BE SAFE THIS HOLIDAY SEASON CLEAN AND SERENE U LOOK AND SOUND GREAT 2015 (MEXICO CITY GIG LOOKED AWSOME)...
[Verse 1] Desert loving in your eyes all the way If I listened to your lies, would you say I'm a man without conviction I'm a man who doesn't know? How to sell a contradiction You come and go, you come and go [Hook] Karma karma karma karma karma chameleon You come and go, you come and go Loving would be easy if your colors were like my dreams Red gold and green, red gold and green [Verse 2] Didn't hear your wicked words every day And you used to be so sweet, I heard you say That my love was an addiction When we cling, our love is strong When you go, you're gone forever You string along, you string along [Hook] [Bridge] Every day is like survival You're my lover, not my rival Every day is like survival You're my lover, not my rival [Verse 3] I'm a man (a man) without conviction I'm a man (a man) who doesn't know How to sell (to sell) a contradiction You come and go, you come and go [Hook]
Aw, Pete's serenading the maids who are picking up the debris from the party. That was so sweet of him, but they could have been a little quieter with those plastic bags.
can't be sure that drugs are responsible for their amazing music, one needs to already have an ability in order to be an artist. F.e. even if I took drugs I doubt I would come out with anything worth listening to, that's all.
alrite i give ya great congratulations, for giving it a go, and trying to copy, ya the only Cover, i have heard of this song, that is pretty good.. :) good job. :P

Thank you.

Something very peaceful here
THANKYOU FOR THE FEEDBACK. Peter had returned from a detox in Harrogate that morning.
So grateful and thankful to my god this man's still alive one Best poets since Jim morrison for me and that's a huge statement rip Jim morrison 💚🙏
I knew every word of this song, yet until I heard this (originally around 6years ago, and I keep coming back) I never truly appreciated it for the touching, emotional love song it is.
You never cease to amaze me pete.
I never really enjoyed the song until hearing this version.
i love him...i can understand his problems...being a recovering addict myself

oh my good god...i love him so much. this video is perfect.
17 years after recommended
so happy he cleaned up
I used to have that wallpaper in my bedroom as a kid!
Deleted scene from Trainspotting..
hahahaha :-D
renton himself
How ironic as transpotting was about smack
that's the point... what's ironic about it...
that's why the comparison was made in the first place, so nothing quite ironic.
brilliant version, I cant wait for Petes acoustic album, hes an inspiration and a class musician, cheers
Good god, this cover made me realize how pretty these lyrics are
Realise*
Only Peter can make me dig this song
Listen i appreciate pete, my idol is LG , but this man is class, enjoy him wile he's here.. better than anything recent and this is drugg up pete 11 years ago and still cooler and better than any modern artists.. geeza, c'mooooon

Llego a soñar con estos tipos
Nunca me paso con ningun artista mas

Simply beautiful.
Peter, you could read aloud from the telephone book while you played, and it would sound beautiful!

How? He doesn't sing in tune nor with character. The guitar is horribly out of tune as well.

"i'm a man without conviction"

"if i listened to you lies would you say, that im a man without conviction?"

Peter Doherty is pure genius by the way, I love you Peter.

I actually had this wallpaper when I was a kid

Loaded
if you don't want to deal with the tuning business its
verse: Bb / F / Eb / F / Eb / Gm / F
chorus: Bb / F / Gm / Cm / Bb / F
the "every day" bit is : Eb / Dm / Eb / Gm play that twice but on the second time strum the Gm for one bar and throw in an F. like Eb / Gm/F
Bravo 👏
Aye, don't do drugs with "pals".

[Verse 1]
Desert loving in your eyes all the way
If I listened to your lies, would you say
I'm a man without conviction
I'm a man who doesn't know?
How to sell a contradiction
You come and go, you come and go
[Hook]
Karma karma karma karma karma chameleon
You come and go, you come and go
Loving would be easy if your colors were like my dreams
Red gold and green, red gold and green
[Verse 2]
Didn't hear your wicked words every day
And you used to be so sweet, I heard you say
That my love was an addiction
When we cling, our love is strong
When you go, you're gone forever
You string along, you string along
[Hook]
[Bridge]
Every day is like survival
You're my lover, not my rival
Every day is like survival
You're my lover, not my rival

I'm a man (a man) without conviction

Lou Reed "Sally can't dance" era hairstyle ;)
Damn, why watch it if your just gonna complain? D:

nice wallpaper pete ;-)
Why does it sound like someone's trying to pack their aldi shopping in the background
its perfectly normal to wrap a turkey in foil before placing it in the oven.
Hope it was served juicy@@PaulRoundhill
A smoke in one hand. That's the spirit!
Love Pete.
i love this cover.
this guy can sing any song and put something of his own in it... i love pete... the best musician ever since damon albarn...
i truly hope this number and "hired gun" are on the solo album, thanks for sharing, cheers
oh he is such a handsome boy..
I have always liked this cover. I wonder what happened to this dude.
He turned into a hedgehog and got ran over on the a623
i didnt really like this song, but how can u not like it when pete sings it! love it!
this is brilliant, he sang this at nia bham the other day and was just as good :)
this makes me cry
SUPERB!!!!!!!!
Aw, Pete's serenading the maids who are picking up the debris from the party. That was so sweet of him, but they could have been a little quieter with those plastic bags.
And that's before breakfast kids 👍
No, it was about lunchtime actually.
Peter Doherty... You fucking Genius.
See you in August babe xx
Oh wow the dudes still alive.
Beautiful *-*
up down up down up down
i f***ing love you!!!!!!
Never liked this song until now.. Amazing cover.
Pete UR brilliant!!!!!!

can't be sure that drugs are responsible for their amazing music, one needs to already have an ability in order to be an artist. F.e. even if I took drugs I doubt I would come out with anything worth listening to, that's all.

alrite i give ya great congratulations, for giving it a go, and trying to copy, ya the only Cover, i have heard of this song, that is pretty good.. :) good job. :P

Yeah and full of truths like all great art - certainly a man of convictions.
On repeat!

Look, it's sick boy from Trainspotting!
lovely wall
im pretty sure the chords are G,D,C,Em the orders pretty easy t figure out! hope it helps

Desert loving in your eyes all the way.
If I listen to your lies would you say
I'm a man without conviction,
I'm a man who doesn't know
how to sell a contradiction.
You come and go, you come and go.
Karma karma karma karma karma chameleon,
you come and go, you come and go.
Loving would be easy if your colours were like my dream,
red gold and green, red gold and green.
Is that a cigarette!?
What is going on with that guitar to make the G shape sound like a C? Is it tuned 5 steps up? whats going on?
you will find some resolved conversations about that if you scroll down.
I had that wallpaper when I was about 10
I wish I still had a few rolls.
Borna barisic 🇬🇧
sure?
yep
awesome
Lovely
that's everything I can say about it
he did this to his hair a long time ago, itsnot recent
Give Pete a guitar and a cigarette and he just rocks no gimmicks
I don't think the cigarette played any useful part.
@@PaulRoundhill I thought it played a good part in the whole junkie look !
