  • 3 chords can do so much and tell a lot , so here we are with the Am F and G .
    To get a kind of All along the Watchtower Tower type of song. I wanted
    To create something poetic about a communication breakdown in a relationship with a Dire Straits vibe letting the Stratocaster talk its way through.
    This all came about when I was told in a professional setting
    that I was an another planet and couldn’t be reached or getting a point across.. Maybe the marble Queen was right but you can’t let someone down just by giving up.. And let silence take over
    Silence
    ©070724 John Schuur
    Solo
    Ask a blind man what did he see
    before the dying light
    New moons Pink Flamingos
    Flying endlessly
    across the night born sky
    And to a deaf man ;
    where did he lose his soul
    Last words spoken
    by the ground patrol
    ‘ Bout electric sunrises from the deep
    A crystal palace for my marble Queen
    Bathing in luxury……
    Drowning in anxiety …….
    Everything dies she knows
    Where can you go
    In Fire Dragons fighting scenes
    (Don’t wake up) cyclops and other creeps
    Chorus
    Silence took over
    Between you and me
    Shut down all the roads
    In frozen fields of green
    For another you
    there never’ll be another me
    Two giants fast asleep
    Ooooh silence took over
    Fight this war with me
    Disable mute and speak
    Mmmmmm
    Solo + break
    For another you
    there never’ll be another me
    If you shut down all the roads
    In frozen fields of green
    My Marble Queen
