Two versions of this battled it out on the US charts: one by the composer,
Eddie Rambeau, and a cover by the Unit 4+2. This transcription is of the
latter, which was probably recorded in C and sped up to Db for the single.
"Concrete And Clay"
(Eddie Rambeau)
Intro:
cowbell and finger cymbal [4 bars]
G7
/ / / / / / / / / / / / / / / /
Verse 1:
G7
You to me
C
Are sweet as roses in the morning
G7
And you to me
C F
Are soft as summer [unintelligible] in love we share
Em
That something rare
Chorus:
Dm
The sidewalks in the street
G7 C
The concrete and the clay beneath my feet
Am/E
Begins to crumble
F G7
But love will never die
C Am/E
Because we'll see the mountains tumble
F G7
Before we say goodbye
F
My love and I will be
E G7/D
In love eternally
G7
That's the way
C
Mmm, that's the way it's meant to be
Verse 2:
All around
I see the purple shades of evening
And on the ground
The shadows fall and once again you're in my arms
So tenderly
[repeat chorus]
Instrumental break:
(acoustic guitar solo over verse chords)
[repeat chorus]
Coda
G7
And that's the way
C
That's the way it's meant to be
That's the way
(that's the way it's meant to be)
Whoa, that's the way
That's the way it's meant to be [fade]
-- another ace 60's tab from Andrew Rogers
The second line of verse 1 should read:
"You to me are soft as summer rain at dawn. The love we share, that's something rare."
Actually, Unit 4+2 wrote this.
True story.
on the video,it's played in E with detuned down 2 frets guitars.
