16 Jul 02 - 11:46 AM (#748925) Subject: RE: I need the lyrics to Tom Paine's Bones From: MMario (psst - no need to bump up for about 23 hours or so; they always remain on the default page for a day.) Yes - the song is by Graham Moore and has been recorded by a number of people. I was able to find a few partial lyrics on google. Haven't bothered to post as anyone can do the same - and since they aren't complete. |

16 Jul 02 - 02:39 PM (#749065) Subject: Lyr Add: TOM PAINE'S BONES From: GUEST,Audi0000girl MMario We have a success. I found this on a German website. Weird... Actually Moi found it..lol here you go Mario! Maybe you can answer the question at the end of the lyrics? TOM PAINE'S BONES D A h G As I roved out one evening by a river of discontent D f# A G I bumped straight into old Tom Paine as running down the road he went D A h G He said, "I can't stop right now child, King George is after me D f# A G He'd have a rope around my throat and hang me on the Liberty Tree." CHORUS: D A h G I will dance to Tom Paine's bones dance to Tom Paine's bones D f# A G(D) Dance in the oldest boots I own to the rhythm of Tom Paine's bones. I only talked about freedom And justice for everyone But since the very first word I spoke I've been looking down the barrel of a gun And they say I preached revolution, Let me say in my defence That all I did wherever I went was to talk a lot of common sense. Chorus Old Tom Paine, he ran so fast he left me standing still And there I was, a piece of paper in my hand, standing at the top of the hill And it said, "This is the Age of Reason these are the Rights of Man Kick off religion and monarchy" it was written there in Tom Paine's plan. Chorus Old Tom Paine, there he lies nobody laughs and nobody cries Where he's gone or how he fares nobody knows – and nobody cares. Chorus the site also has it in musical notation form. one question though. what's the "h"?

16 Jul 02 - 03:09 PM (#749093) Subject: RE: I need the lyrics to Tom Paine's Bones From: MMario They were talking about that on the forum once - it (the 'h') is used in german and I think french music notation for one of the "standard" chords - but I misremeber which - as I don't know a chord from a bunch of stovewood I don't even try to remmeber that kinda stuff. It causes my brain cell to break out in a nervous sweat and then lint sticks to it. Care to share the url of the site you found it on? Always good to give credit... |

17 Jul 02 - 07:48 AM (#749581) Subject: RE: I need the lyrics to Tom Paine's Bones From: GUEST,Activities_Lady Hmmm.................... I'd say that lower case seems to mean minor so f# would be F#m in English, and h would be Bm. They'd naturally fit with the A and D chords. ??????? What do we think? |

11 Aug 20 - 01:31 AM (#4067956) Subject: RE: Lyr Req/Add: Tom Paine's Bones (Graham Moore) From: Jack Campin I always thought Dick Gaughan wrote that. I heard it sung a while back by a young guy who'd learnt it from a Gaughan recording, which was in Gaughan's usual unpredictable timing. He figured out you could just do it in 7/4 straight through. Worked really well. |
