                             CATHEDRALS - Jump, Little Children
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jump, Little Children is a highly underappreciated band and Cathedrals is an
incredible song.  I found several tabs and chords for this song online, but
many of them didn't seem quite right, but this seems to match up well with
what they play on Magazine.  Enjoy.

Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)

Capo on 3rd fret.

Intro:
=======

Eb  F/Eb  Eb  Ebm7 F/Eb

Verse 1:
=========
Eb             F/Eb
In the shadows of tall buildings
Bb/D             Eb
Of fallen angels on the ceilings
Ebm7          F/Eb 
Oily feathers in bronze and concrete
Bb/D          G7
Faded colors, pieces left incomplete
Cm                    F/A               Bb
The line moves slowly past the electric fence
                   G7
Across the borders, between continents

Chorus:
========
Cm                F/A             Bb
In the cathedrals of New York and Rome
                   Eb                      Cm
There is a feeling that you should just go home
                   
And spend a lifetime
F/A                           
Finding out just where that is

Eb F/Eb Eb Ebm7 F/Eb

Verse 2:
=========
Eb             F/Eb
In the shadows of tall buildings
Bb/D             Eb
The architecture is slowly peeling
Ebm7           F/Eb    
Marble statues and glass dividers 
Bb/D                 G7
Someone is watching, all of the outsiders 
Cm                    A/F 
The line moves slowly through the numbered gate
Bb              G7
Past the mosaic of the head of state



Verse 3:
=========
Eb             F/Eb
In the shadows of tall buildings 
Bb/D        Eb
Open arches endlessly kneeling 
Ebm7             F/Eb
Sonic landscapes echoing vistas 
Bb/D                 G7
Someone is listening from a safe distance 
Cm                    F/A           
The line moves slowly into a fading light 
Bb             G7
A final moment in the dead of night
