Unit Four Plus Two

Concrete And Clay

Two versions of this battled it out on the US charts: one by the composer,
Eddie Rambeau, and a cover by the Unit 4+2.  This transcription is of the
latter, which was probably recorded in C and sped up to Db for the single.

	You to me

	Are sweet as roses in the morning
	    G7 
	And you to me
	              C             F

	That something rare

Chorus:

Dm
	The sidewalks in the street
	     G7                               C
	The concrete and the clay beneath my feet
	          Am/E
	Begins to crumble
	     F              G7
	But love will never die
	                C               Am/E
	Because we'll see the mountains tumble
	   F              G7
	Before we say goodbye

F
	My love and I will be
	    E        G7/D
	In love eternally
	 G7
	That's the way
	                 C
	Mmm, that's the way it's meant to be



Verse 2:

All around
	I see the purple shades of evening
	And on the ground
	The shadows fall and once again you're in my arms
	So tenderly

[repeat chorus]

Instrumental break:

(acoustic guitar solo over verse chords)

G7
	And that's the way
	            C
	That's the way it's meant to be

That's the way
	(that's the way it's meant to be)
	Whoa, that's the way
	That's the way it's meant to be   [fade]
