Midas' Shadow - guitar chords and comments
Lyrics without distraction HERE
Besides comfortable listening, Al Stewart's music is often a journey through history and mythology, due to a lifelong passion. He's credited the origin of the genre "historical folk rock". This song is a lighter side of him, and from his platinum 1976 album "The Year of the Cat".Am Am/G Am/F# F you got your ticket and your hotel keys Am G Am and your overnight bag at your feet Am Am/G Am/F# F you're looking down on the tropical trees Am G Am while the spanish maids pick up the sheets C G Am G conquistador in search of gold C Esus4 E for all the jackdaw reasons Am Am/G Am/F# F the Midas shadow that's so hard to please Am G Am and follows wherever you go
Am/G is plain A minor with G on 1. string, and Am/F# is plain A minor with F sharp bass.
