Chords for Thomas Dolby - Sole Inhabitant Podcast (#1 - Leipzig)

[G] _ _ [E] _ _ [G] _ The first two songs I ever recorded in a real studio were Leipzig and Urges, and the studio
was on a barge in Little Venice in North London, and it was a weird little studio.
[N] _ _ We had a strange experience and we met a lock keeper who said to watch out for a body that
was floating in the canal, and I remember while I was doing my vocals something didn't
smell quite right and it sort of spooked me out.
It turned out that the assistant engineer had actually left an open carton of Chinese
food in the tape store, so things were cool.
I sang this song, Leipzig, and it's about a guy, 39 years old, who _ _ _ _ reaches out for a
new job somewhere in Eastern Europe and gets there and finds that really every place is
just the same. _ _ _
