King Crimson - Walking On Air (Live) [50th Anniversary | From 1995 Single] chords
Start Jamming...
[A] [G#m] [E] Walking on Air, live at the Wilton Theatre [Em] in Los Angeles at the end of June 1995, as
released on the [E] Sex, Sleep, Eat, Drink, Dream EP.
[G#] [E]
[A] [G] [E]
I mentioned earlier in this series that there were more [G#m] singles taken from the Frack [E] album
than any other King [G#] Crimson album, [G] and Walking on Air [G#m] featured on [C] two of those.
[G] An edit of the studio recording was itself released as a single, and this live version
was in fact the [E] opening track on the Sex, Sleep, Eat, Drink, Dream EP.
[G#]
It was mixed from the live multi-tracks by Adrian Ballew at his studio [G] in Nashville,
[B] and it has [Em] the dubious [G#m] honour of since [E] becoming one of two recent [Gm] sets of tapes that are now
missing [Em] from our [G#] archives, the [E] others being the [Gm] master reels for The [E] Construction of Light.
Both were last seen in Adrian's studio, but he knows [G#] he doesn't have them, and we don't have them.
[Am] [Em] They've disappeared into our own private [G#m] version of the Bermuda [E] Triangle [F#] somewhere [A] in [D#] between.
[E]
As both recordings were made for Virgin EMI, the Bermuda Triangle is [C] probably some [E] undiscovered
corner of [C#m] Virgin's tape [Dm] archive.
[E] Some of you may have heard about the Universal Tape Archive [Em] which burnt down [E] in [G#] 2008, taking
[A#] with it some [C] absolutely horrifying proportion of the history of music.
[C#]
So hopefully [E] they weren't in there.
We may not have the multi-track, but we do have the mixed version.
[G] So here it is, [E] the live performance of Walking on Air from the Sex, Sleep, Eat, Drink, Dream
EP in 1995.
Walking on Air from the Sex, Sleep, Eat, Drink, Dream
[F#m]
[G#] [C#]
[C#m] [E]
[C#m] [E] Close your eyes and [F#m] look at me
Always standing by [E] your [C#] side
[E]
In between [F#m] the deep blue sea
[F#]
[C#m] And the [A] sheltering [E]
sky
[C#] [E]
If we find [F#]
no words to [F#m] say
[C#] To [A] the rhythm of the waves
[E]
Then we'll both
[F#] surrender [F#m] there
[Am] Walking on [E] air
And the [G#m] worries of the day
[C#m] lie down
Under [C] cover of the fading [E] clouds
The secrets [G#m] of the night [C#m] come alive in your [C] eyes
You don't have [F#] to [A] hurry
[F#m]
[B] You don't [F#] have to [A] try
[B] Cause you don't ever [Am] care
[G#] You're walking on [E] air
