"A Trick of the Tail"
		Squonk

!		Hello again! here's something a little newer, still from a time when
!		Genesis was writing very creative songs. This one's actually
!		written by Banks and Rutherford.

!		The intro is basically just like the first verse.

>		Dm7               C/D
(1)		Like father, like son
>		Dm7                          C/D
		Not flesh nor fish nor bone, a red rag hangs from an open mouth
>		Dm7                              C/D
		Alive at both ends but a little dead in the middle
>		Dm7                           C/D
		A-tumbling and a-bumbling he will go
>		Em7/A                     F#m7/A
		All the king's horses and all the king's men
>		      Em7/A                     F#m7/A
		could never put a smile on that face

!		(2)  follows the same pattern as (1)
		He's a sly one, he's a shy one, wouldn't you be too?
		Scared to be left all on his own
		Hasn't a, hasn't a friend to play with the ugly duckling
		The pressure on, the bubble will burst before our eyes
		All the while in perfect time
		his tears are falling on the ground
		But if you don't stand up you don't stand a chance!

!		This is a "chorus" bit, which comes after:
		   "...don't stand a chance"
		   "...all to see at night"
		   "...you'd better watch out"
		   "...just a pool of tears"
!		                                                                      (repeat)
>		D(no 3rd) G#o D7   D   G/D             D     A/D       G/D

		tears.                                                   just a pool of tears

		night.                                                    They don't have eyes

!		Bridge 1
!		The second time through the bit above, the measure of the <G/D> chord becomes
!		in 5/4 time, with a <Gm6/D> on the second half of beat 2. This only happens
!		here, leading into the first bridge.
>		C/D         Dm7             Gm7                Gm        Dmsus2,4   Dm add E
		Go a little faster now, you might get there in time
>		F       Am7          Dm7      Dm7  Em7  Dm7  Em7
		Mirror mirror on the wall
>		    Eb                              Bb           F
		his heart was broken long before he ever came to you
>		          Am7         Dm7      Dm7  Em7  Dm7  Em7
		Stop your tears from falling
>		    Eb                                 Bb            F
		The trail they leave is very clear for all to see at night
>		       Am7
		all to see at night
!		(to "chorus")

!		(3)  like (1)
		In season, out of season
		what's the dff'rence when you don't know the reason?
		In one hand bread, the other a stone
		the hunter enters the forest
		All are not huntsmen who blow thw huntsman's horn
		By the look of this one, you've not got much to fear

(4)		Here I am, I'm very firce and fright'ning
		Come to match my skill to yours
		Now listen here, listen to me, don't you run away now
		I am a friend, I'd really like to play with you
		Making noises my little furry friend would make
		I'll trick him, then I'll kick him into my sack
		You'd better watch out, you'd better watch out

!		(to "chorus", no lyrics this time)

!		Bridge 2
!		(just like bridge 1)
		I've got you, I've got you, you'll never get away
		Walking home that night
		the sack across my back, the sound of sobbing on my shoulder
		when suddenly it stopped
		I opened up the sack, all that I had
		a pool of bubbles and tears
		just a pool of tears
!		(to "chorus")
!		Second time through chorus, go up to an <A> chord on the second half
!		of beat 2 (still in 4/4), then go to the ending

!		Ending
>		Bsus4  B                    F#m
		       All in all you are a very dying race
>		A                    E
		Placing trust upon a cruel world
>		                  B
		You never had the things you thought you should have had
>		    F#m
		and you'll not get them now
>		             A                                    E             B
		and all the while in perfect time your tears are falling on the ground

!		Where this goes from there, I'm not sure. I think there's a <C#> after the
!		<B>, but again I'm not entirely sure. But, this is the grand portion of
!		Sqounk, so don't let a little thing like the ending stop you from
!		enjoying it!
