This one's pretty easy, so everybody probably already knows it. As far as I can tell, it's just an E to F#m for the whole song. The bridge is just a funky way of strumming it.....if anybody has any improvements, tell me. E F#m Cakebrick road in summer 1981 etc...... we shared a house and garden. At the height of all the bombing, on the run in busy, hazy London. Through t-shirt breezes walking home from work- County Kilburn sun. Weekends we'd just wash away the dirt of busy hazy London. F#m- -- - - -- -- --- - ---- - E The night grew cold, the thames is old La da da da..... Found that manners count for nothing and it took a Welshman in his forties. Guinness elbows rest upon a tabletop, the two of us are earlies. Three feet of snow fell on the Walnut road; two feet trudged. ROund the corner came the sound of bad dreams The flame is old, the thames is cold. Cakebrick road in summer 1981, we left a house and garden On the corner boys, best of friends. -- The extra guitar and especially bass parts help give it a good sound, as well as somebody banging on a snare drum.
