                          BIG SCREEN WALTZ - Plan B (Berlin)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tuning:    Standard
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inspired by 2 gigs in Hamburg 2012:
"Plan B" Berlin (not London) with "Big Screen Waltz" from "Independent years 1984-1987" (1991)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Remember this is a waltz, so 3 beats per bar, emphasizing only beat 1.

The "C & Am" part strumming goes always something like this (repeating):
C     |Am    |C     |Am
v  ^v^|v  ^v^|v  ^v^|v v v  

The other parts you have to figure out yourself.

The INTRO is like a verse:
C Am C Am C Am G G
C Am C Am C Am G G F F
C Am C Am

C          Am   C            Am
  I should work just like my daddy
C        Am           G    G
  at the edge of this town
C            Am        C              Am
  you should stay home just like your mommy
C         Am          G           G
  but instead we just hang around living
F               F          C   Am   C    Am
And waiting for time to go by

C         Am     C           Am
  I could be the upper class kid
C         Am           G    G
  driving cars I can't pay
C           Am     C            Am
  you could be the girl right beneath me
C         Am          G            G
  with designer jeans made down in france
     F         F               C    Am    C    Am

CHORUS:
F         F           G       G

your answers to my questions
F       F           G      G
  and I never quite understood

the film on the big screen of life

C   Am   C   Am   C   Am   C   Am

C       Am   C           Am
  I can see your kind of fortune
  C           Am    G    G
recorded on a video tape
C     Am         C               Am
and I agree that life seems much easier
C        Am
  if you got the chance
G         G              
just to rewind it if you
F             F           C     Am   C   Am
missed a good part of the script

C      Am         C       Am
  my regards, you finally made it
C            Am            G     G
all that you dreamed of is yours
C             Am        C         Am
but don't you think I'm feeling unhappy
C      Am          G           G            
   for I can still dream and I still got the
F             F        C    Am    C    Am
things I keep dreaming of

CHORUS:
F         F           G       G
  well, I never quite understood
     Em      G     F         F
your answers to my questions
F       F           G      G
  and I never quite understood
    Em          G             F    F
the film on the big screen of life

your answers to my questions

the film on the big screen of life
