Sting - Fragile - Uke

[Baug (B Augmented) is fingered 4-3-3-2, or you can play Am7]

Em Em Em7 Em7 Am7 Am7
If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one
Bm7 Bm7 Em Em
Drying in the colour of the evening sun
Em7 Em7 Am7 Am7
Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away
Bm7 Bm7 Em Em
But something in our minds will always stay
Em7 Em7
Perhaps this final act was meant
Am7 Am7
To clinch a lifetime's argument
Bm7 Bm7
That nothing comes from violence
Em Em
and nothing ever could
Em7 Em7 Am7 Am7
For all those born beneath an angry star
Bm7 Bm7 Em Em
Lest we forget how fragile we are
Am Am Bm7 Bm7
On and on the rain will fall
Em Em
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
Am Am Baug Baug
On and on the rain will say
Em Em
How fragile we are
How fragile we are

Em7 Em7 Am7 Am7 Bm7 Bm7 Em Em

Am Am Baug Baug
On and on the rain will fall
Em Em
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
Am Am Baug Baug
On and on the rain will say
Em Em
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
How fragile we are



[Special Thanks to voicesblur for the following addition
17-03-2010 - " think Am7 may work better than the Bm7 Am Am7
On and on the rain will fall and Am Am Am7 Am7 On and on the rain
will say try it out and enjoy :)"]

[N.B 'I can add that I've also tried playing with the Bm7 Bm7
on the 'On and on the rain will say' part - playing a Baug Baug
(B B augmented) chord - which is 4-3-3-2 - It sounds just
lovely! so I've added the change above. Barn1uk 17-03-2010]

Ignore my comment about the Am7 below folks, it doesn't work at all in the verses! Sorry!, The chords here are now spot on, and I've added voicesblur's comments in the main tab - Thanks!

Hi Folks -

Thanks to voicesblur for the comment, its nice to see feedback :-)

The open Am7 here is not my preffered, try the following fingering for Am7;
[ 4-3-2-1 [strings] ]
[ 2 4 3 3 [fingers] ] (i find it easier to bar2)

Happy uke-ing!

Barn1uk :-)
