Chord/Tab song: Moments of Pleasure

By Kate Bush
From 1993's "The Red Shoes"

[Ab] [Db/F] [Gb] [Db/F]

[Ab] Some moments that I[Db/F]'ve had

[Gb] Some momen[Db/F]ts of pleasure

[Ab] [Db/F] [Gb] [Db/F]
[Ab] I think about us[Db/F] lying

[Gb]Lying on a beach[Ab] somewhere

I think about us[Dbadd9] diving

[Gb]Diving off a roc[Db/F]k, into another [Ab]moment

[Db/Ab] [Gb] [Db/F]

[Ab] The case of[Db/F] George the W[Gb]ipe

Oh [Db/F]God I can't stop laughi[Ab]ng

This sense of[Db/F] humour of min[Gb]e

[Db/F]It isn't funny at all[Ab][Db/F]

Oh but we [Gb]sit up all night

[Db/F]Talking about it[Absus4]


[Ab] Just being ali[Fb]ve

[Gb] It can really[Absus4] hurt[Ab]

These moments [Fb]given

[Gb] Are a gift from [Ab]time[Db/F][Gb][Db/F]

[Ab] On a balcony in[Db/Ab] New York

[Gb/Ab] It's just [Db/Ab]started to snow

[Ab] He meets us at the [Db/Ab]lift

Like [Gbm]Douglas Fairbanks

[Db/F] Waving his walk[Ab]ing stick

[Db/F] But he isn't well at [Gb]all[Db]

The [Gb]buildings[Db/F] of New York

[Ab7sus4] Look just lik[Db/F]e mountains through t[Gb]he snow


N.C. Fb
Just being alive

[Gb] It can reall[Absus4]y hurt[Ab]

These moments g[Fb]iven

[Gb] Are a gift from[Ab] time

N.C. Db/F
Just let us try

[Gb] To give these moments[Ab] back

To those we l[Fb]ove

[Gb]To those who will surv[Ab]ive[Db/Ab][Gb/Ab][Db/F]


[Ab] And I can hear my[Db/F] mother saying

[Gb] "[Db/F]Every old sock [Ab]meets an old shoe"[Db/F]

[Gb] Ain't that a great saying?[Db/F][Ab][Db/F][Gb]

"[Db/F]Every old sock [Ab]meets an old shoe"[Db/F]

[Gb] Here come the [Db/F]Hills of Time

[Ab] [Db/F] [Gb] [Db/F] [Ab]

[Db/F] Hey there Maureen,[Gb][Db/F][Ab][Db/F][Gb]

[Db/F] Hey there Bubba,[Ab]

[Db/F]Dancing down the aisle of a [Gb]plane,

[Db/F] [Ab] [Db/F]

[Gb] 'S Murph, [Db/F]playing his guitar refrain,

[Ab] [Db/F] [Gb] [Db/F] [Ab]

[Db/F] Hey there Teddy,[Gb]

[Db/F]Spinning in the chair at Abbey [Ab]Road,

[Db/F] [Gb] [Db/F] [Ab]

[Db/F]Hey there Michael,[Gb]

[Db/F] Do you really love me?

[Ab] [Db/F] [Gb] [Db/F] [Ab]

[Db/F] Hey there Bill,[Gb]

[Db/F] d'you turn the lights up?

[Ab] [Db/F] [Gb] [Db/F] [Ab] [Absus2]
