Colin: “A celebration of my foibles and my wife's foibles. On a canvas of heart gladdening music, with the minimum of sentimentality. Not to mention a splash of my Mum and Dad in there for good measure.”
[THIS SPACE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK]
NotesTim Kendrick: “Mills and Boon publish trashy English romance novels. Milk Tray is a box of chocolates — TV commercials feature death defying ways a guy can bring the candy to his love, including dropping down from the sky in a parachute (a spoof of James Bond kind of thing). England apparently never wins their test matches (cricket).”
Well would you want me
In your afternoons
If I seduced you
In your mills and boon
Well I'll be the master
If you'll be the maid
But don't ya get those headaches
In another life
I'll bring you Milk Tray
From a parachute
I'll play the Hollywood hunk
You can dye your roots
Well I'll be your Burton
If you'll be my Liz
There might be flying pigs
In another life
It's how we're built love
Don't let it wilt love
I'll take ya flat feet
Well if you'll take my habits
It all works out in the endAh! but in another life
I'll be the stranger
In your horoscope
The cheeky builder
Calling with his quote
Or maybe a chippendale
On girls night out
Make mine the biggest pouch
In another life
It's how we're built love
Don't let it wilt love
I'll take ya mood swings
Well if you'll take my hobbies
It all works out in the end
Ah! but in another life
Well I'll be your Burton
If you'll be my Liz
There might be flying pigs
In another life
And you'd give up the cigs
In another life
And beer tastes good in tins
Test matches we might win
And your mother buys her gin

In Another Life
(Moulding)
Key: Gb (tune guitar down 1/2 step to play along with record)
After tuning down, the 2 main chords are played this way:
G(add9)
string: low e a d g b e high
fret: 3 x o 2 o 3
C6(no 3rd)
low e a d g b e high
x 3 x 2 1 3
and, Bb2
low e a d g b e high
x 1 3 3 1 x
(The Bb-A-G-F movement in the bass of the Bb2 chords
happens within the actual chords, also; which makes me
think this is done with 2 separate parts.)
G(add9) C6(no3rd)
Well, would you want me, in your afternoons
If I seduced ya, in your Mills and Boons

Ah, but in another life...
I'll be the stranger, in your horoscope
The cheeky builder, calling with his quote
Or maybe a Chippendale, on girls' night out
Make mine the biggest pouch
In another life
That's how I built love
Don't let it wilt, love
I'll take your mood swings
