This is the chord progression of Evil Quarter Mile by Ryan O\’ Reilly on Piano, Guitar, Ukulele and Keyboard.
[Intro]
C/G
[Verse]
C/G Am
On the Evil Quarter Mile they have many words for love
Em G
Not all of them are just four letters either
C/G Am
You only knew the one but it was safe upon your tongue
Em G
\’Till you swallowed it and whispered \’now it\’s over\’
Am Em
All of your different intonations required expert explanations
F G
It still all sounds so foreign to me now
Am
But before you take your aim
Em
I will admit I was to blame
F G
But permit me if you will this final vow
[Chorus]
C/G Am
That I cannot forgive you
Em
I can\’t forgive you
G
I won\’t forgive you for
C/G
letting me let you go
Am
I can\’t forgive you
Em
I can\’t forgive you
G
I won\’t forgive you for
C/G
letting me let you go
[Verse]
C/G Am
All of the millionaires and billionaires who stroll through Holland Park
Em G
They had no time for us and me not for them either
C/G Am
You informed me as you combed your hair, The BBC had put you there
Em G
At the top of the spiral stairs \’till Easter
Am
I watched the Holy Father\’s slow parade
Em
Down The Mall it threatened rain
F G
As helicopters swirled into the ether
Am
You were sick outside a Mayfair bar
Em
Your taxi didn\’t get that far
F G
Down one-way streets that won\’t out-run your fever
[Chorus]
C/G Am
And I cannot forgive you
Em
I can\’t forgive you
G
I won\’t forgive you for
C/G
letting me let you go
Am
I can\’t forgive you
Em
I can\’t forgive you
G
I won\’t forgive you for
C/G
letting me let you go
[Bridge]
C/G
My confession confused you
Am
Like it was designed to do
Em
Everything I said that\’s true
G
Concealed a lie
C/G
You watered every bruise with tears
Am
Flooded through the happy years
Em G
Ran alone but still you feared you\’d finish last
Am Em
I won\’t try to defend my pride or resurrect what\’s clearly died
F G
Or subject you to my advances
Am
I won\’t try myself to explain
Em
It couldn\’t deaden any pain
F G
And you never did believe in second chances
[Chorus]
C/G Am
And I cannot forgive you
Em
I can\’t forgive you
G
I won\’t forgive you for
C/G
letting me let you go
Am
I can\’t forgive you
Em
I can\’t forgive you
G
I won\’t forgive you for
C/G
letting me let you go
