In The Gallery


In The Gallery - DireStraits Key: Am or (A#m on the record) Intro: drums and guitar 0.5 0.5 1.0 Am D Am D - Am Am - C - D Harry made a bareback rider proud and free upon a horse 0.5 0.5 0.5 Am D D - Am Am - C - D And a fine coalminer for the NCB that was (repeat chord sequence ahead....) A fallen angel and Jesus on the cross A skating ballerina you should have seen her do the skater`s waltz Some people have got to paint and draw Harry had to work iin clay and stone Like the waves coming to the shore It was in his blood and in his bones Ignored by all the trendy boys in London and in Leeds Am D - G - C G CHORUS: He might as well have been making toys or strings of beads C C G C slide D He could`nt be... He could`nt be..... in the gallery And then you get an artist says he doesn`t want to paint at all He takes an empty canvas and sticks it on the wall The birds of a feather all the phonies and all of the fakes While the dealers they get together And they decide who gets the breaks And who`s going to be in the gallery Solo: Follow 1 verse chord pattern and then do the chorus No lies he wouldn`t compromise No junk no bits of string And all the lies we subsidise That just don`t mean a thing I`ve got to say he passed away in obscurity And now all the vultures are coming down from the tree So he`s going to be in the gallery (keep chord sequence going ie Am - D.C / Am - D.C)
