Pieces Of Mind Tab

by Jack Bruce


I'm not sure if this is exact, but it's as close as I could get it.  If there are any 

        
Pieces of mind
        
See how they ran
        
Prizes of sun
        
Still to be won
                         
When the life is made of straw
                          
Can you tell me what it's for?
                             
Waves that pound against the door
                                   
Leave me at the place of throw it away
        
Throw it away
        
Leave it today

Keep me dancing stop me grasping

Clouds that turn the dust on touching
                                                
Times I'm so far from what I want, what I want, what I want

        
So much the same
        
Living in games
        
Pieces of cake
               
Until they break apart
                                         
They say the plane that comes to pass never rhymes
                                
Now it burns on grass too steep to climb

         
Best of friends
               
Until the flowers end
                     
Mines have taken their place
                
Darkness in their face
                        
Now the golden coach is here
                        
Can you cure me of the fear
                         
Should I move into the clear
                                       

Find a time in which I throw it away,  get out today


Keep me singing stop me clutching

Rooms that turn to dust on clutching
                                      
          
Times I'm so far from what I want, what I want, what I want

       
Merry-go-round
               
In a town without sound
       
Wings for hire
                    
From the church with no choir

                    
The burning ship is sailing
                         , 

It will not leave without me -
                 
throw it away,  get out today


Keep me singing stop me clutching

Rooms that turn to dust on leaving
                                                
Times I'm so far from what I want, what I want, what I want

       
Merry-go-round
               
In a town without sound
       
Wings for hire
                    
From the church with no choir

                    
The burning ship is sailing
                       , 

It will not leave without me
                       
The stalks of fire are failing
                
Wont set me... set me free
                         
There goes the price of drowning
                      
So I must swim, swim to the end
                        
Each day the head needs crowning
             
Too much to mend...


Not 100% sure of the middle descending part, but I think the notes are...

Eb Ab C ----- Db F# Bb ----- B E Ab

All of these are played in the basic D chord fingering up on the 9th fret, down to 7th 
down to 5th.  This pattern repeats over and over again at the end of the track as it
