Vega Suzanne

Vega Suzanne - Rock In This Pocket guitar chord

Here's my version of Suzanne Vega's "Rock In This Pocket". The

chords I've listed as D/B and D/Bb have more proper names (Bm7

and Bbmaj7 repsectively), but I think this is easier to

understand. Most of the time, you concentrate on the last four

strings and play the higher strings for affect (listen to SV

doing it acoustically to see what I mean). Also with the D/B and

D/Bb its OK to hit the open E every once in awhile. Play them for

a half measure each and then the A5 for a full measure in the

verse. Enjoy

And what so small to you

Bb Csus2 Asus4

Is so large to me

If its last thing I do

Bb Csus2 Dsus2

I'll make you see

Verse 2 (same)

If you turn from me

You darken my sun

You snap that thin thread

I call my horizon

And I'd like to remind you

Of something small

That the rock in this pocket

Could cause your fall

Chorus twice

Dsus2 Instrumental for a few bars

Verse 3 (same)

I might be out like a light

Extinguished in the throw

But I'll hit my mark

And you'll know

Because I'm really well acquainted

With the span of your brow

And if you didn't know me then

You'll know me now

You'll know me now

Chorus twice and repeat last line 3 times

Fade with Dsus2 instrumental
