There is no guitar during verse 1 just this Bass riff

A--7--5--4--5h7-5--4------ after the first time it

E-----------------------7--- begins with 5h7

Down on the flag stones the accordians and sweet trumpets rise

Rusty memories of sin and doubting mingle in around

The Queen Street traffic noise

E D A D A A(12)

Would that all the love in the world watch me through the night

D E A

You know the preacher all he preaches is vanity

D

Maybe,At last,You`ll see

E A

A brighter star than you will shine one day

Hymns and words and busy planets

Riff 1 (see above)

Said the preacher have come and gone

A(12) D(10) A(9) A(12) D(10) A(9)

Even your smile will one day die away

E(slide)D

When your wealth and words are forgotten

Would that all the love in the world stay with me tonight

You know the preacher all he preaches is vanity

Maybe,At last,You`ll see

A brighter star than you will shine one day

Maybe,At last,You`ll see

(As Ricky sings this last line Graeme plays a little riff which is hard to make out but it ends with this)

B-----------------14----

G--14-14-14-16-----14-

A brighter star than you will shine one day
