  WHITE ROOM  by Jack Bruce and Pete Brown


[Gm]  [F]  [Dm]  [C]
[Gm]  [F]  [Dm]  [C]  [Am7]

  Repeat main riff twice for each line of the verses:
  [D]  [D]  [C]  [C]  [G/B]  [G/B]  [Bb]  [C]

In the white room with black curtains near the station.
Blackroof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings.
Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes.
Dawnlight smiles on you leaving, my contentment.

I'll [C] wait in this [G] place where the [Bb] sun never [A] shines;
[C] Wait in this [G] place where the [Bb] shadows [C] run from [D] themselves.

You said no strings could secure you at the station.
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows.
I walked into such a sad time at the station.
As I walked out, felt my own need just beginning.

I'll [C] wait in the [G] queue when the [Bb] trains come [A] back;
[C] Lie with [G] you where the [Bb] shadows [C] run from [D] themselves.

[Gm]  [F]  [Dm]  [C]
[Gm]  [F]  [Dm]  [C]  [Am7]

At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd.
Consolation for the old wound now forgotten.
Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes.
She's just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings.

I'll [C] sleep in this [G] place with the [Bb] lonely [A] crowd;
[C] Lie in the [G] dark where the [Bb] shadows [C] run from [D] themselves.

[Gm]  [F]  [Dm]  [C]
[Gm]  [F]  [Dm]  [C]  [Am7]

Eric Clapton - White Room (Montreux Jazz Festival)
This version is better than the 24 Nights one so I decided to upload it, cause it's so strong and powerfull.The final solo is legendary, but,you know, all the early 90's Slowhand lives were absolutly incredible... Enjoy! P.S. All the band that you can find here it's the same of the MTV Unplugged live(album recorded 1 mounth before this live). Chuck Leavell and Eric are so different that seems to be quite unbelieveble...Lol! Enjoy!
