Acoustic cover of my most favorite Sting song from Sacred Love album. I covered it before, but wasn't happy with the result. Hope you like this version better. Please leave your comments and subscribe!
[Gm]
[Gm] [Gm] [Cm7] [Cm7] [A] [A] [A7] [A7]
Late at night in summer heat - Expensive car, empty street
[Gm] [Gm] [Cm7] [Cm]
There's a wire in my jacket -- This is my trade
[A7] [A7] [D] [D]
It only takes a moment -- Don't be afraid
[Cm] [Cm] [F] [F]
I can hotwire the ignition like some kinda star
[Gm] [Cm7]
Just a poor boy in a rich man's car
[Cm] [Cm] [D] [D]
So I whisper to the engine, and flicker on the lights
[Gm] [Gm]
And we drive into the night
[Gm] [Gm] [Cm7] [Cm7]
Oh the smell of the leather always excites my imagination
[A] [A] [A7] [A7]
And I picture myself in this different situation
[Gm] [Gm] [Cm7] [Cm7]
I'm a company director, two kids and a wife
[A7] [A7] [D] [D]
I get the feeling that there's more to this one's life
[Cm] [Cm] [F] [F]
There' some kind of complication, he tells that he's alone
[Gm] [A7]
Spends the night with his lover -- there's a trace of her cologne
[Cm] [Cm] [D] [D]
And the words of his mistress as she whispers them so near
[Gm] [Gm] [Cm]
Start ringing in my ear
[Chorus]
[Gm] [Cm] [F] [Gm]
Please take me dancing tonight -- I've been all on my own
[Cm] [F] [Gm]
You promised one day we could -- it's what you said on the phone [Cm] [F] [Gm]
I'm just a just a prisoner of love, always hid from the light
[Cm] [F] [F] [Gm] [Gm]
Take me dancing, please take me dancing tonight [Gm] [Gm] [Cm7] [Cm]
I imagine his wife -- she don't look nothing like a fool
[A7] [A7] [D] [D]
She picks her kids up from some private school
[Cm] [Cm] [F] [F]
She remembers what he told her, he was late and worked alone
[Gm] [Gm] [A7] [A7]
But there's more than a suspicion in this lingering cologne
[Cm7] [Cm7] [D] [D]
And the kid just won't be quiet, and she runs a traffic light
And she [Gm start chorus!] drives in--to the night
[Chorus]
[Gm] [Cm] [F] [Gm]
Please take me dancing tonight -- I've been all on my own
[Gm] [Cm] [F] [Gm]
You promised one day we could -- it's what you said on the phone
[Gm] [Cm] [F] [Gm]
I'm just a just a prisoner of love, always hid from the light
[Gm] [F] [F] [Em] [Em]
Take me dancing, please take me dancing tonight
[Em] [Em] [C] [C] [Am] [Am]
So here I am in a stolen car at the traffic light
[G] [G] [G] [G]
They go from red to green [Gm] [Cm7] [F] [Em]
So I just drive—in—too—the--night
[Chorus]
Please take me.. [C] [Am] [D] [Em]
You promised... [C] [Am] [D] [Em]
I'm just a... [C] [Am] [D] [Em]
Take me... [C] [D] [D] [Em]
[Chorus fade out]
Please take me.. [C] [Am] [D] [Em]
You promised... [C] [Am] [D] [Em]
I'm just a... [C] [Am] [D] [Em]
Take me... [C] [D] [D] [Em] [Em]
Песенка в принципе не сложная, если поиграть немного. Аккорды можно найти тут: gitaristu.ru /accords/ letter/s/Sting/ Stolen_car_(akkordy)/
И да... Спасибо, Максим, большое за КЛАССНОЕ ИСПОЛНЕНИЕ. Без вас даже и не подумал бы, что эту песню можно на гитаре ссыграть))

@Dobby0071 I added my chords to the video info!

@msenin Thanks! I'll try to play this song with the chords you are using. You must have an excellent ear if you figured out these chords by yourself... By the way... Eb is playing the same as Cmajor but with the point finger covering the 3rd fret (343563, on the third fret) =))

@Dobby0071 Haha! That's an impossible chord for me - short fingers. Now that I think about it it's easier to play Eb as D# bar chord (easy to remember - if you know 1 bar chord, then you know them all - just transpose them!)

@msenin Thank you for your advice. It was very useful for me. I have one question for you. In the description of the video there is Cm chord after Gm on the last line before chorus ("Start ringing in my ear"). But on the video I can't see this chord. Correct me if I'm mistaken.

@Dobby0071 I play a single strum of Cm as a transition between verse and refrain - just to give it a bass note.
