One Step Ahead — Split Enz
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
From ‘Waiata’ and ‘Enz of an Era’.
Transcribed by John Kean ([email protected]).
INTRO: (bass line only: no chords)
G F# D C# C G C C#
VERSE 1:
Em/G D/F# Bm/D Em/C#
One step ahead of you
C G C Em/C#
Stay in motion, keep an open mind
Em/G D/F# Bm/D Em/C#
Love is a race run by two
C G C Em/C#
Your emotion, my solitude
A Dm/A A
If I stop I could lose my head
G C A
So I’m losing you instead
Dm/A Dm
Either way I’m confused
C Asus2
You slow me down — what can I do?
Dm C Em/G A
There’s one particular way I have to choose
VERSE 2:
One step ahead of you
Always someone makes it hard to move
She says: «Boy, I want you to stay»
But I save it all for another day
If I stop I could lose my head
But I’m ready for romance
Either way I’m confused
I don’t know what I’m s’posed to do
I can only stay one step ahead of you
VERSE 3:
La da-de-da-dah (etc)
Stop! I confess sometimes
I don’t know where I’m going
Part of me stays with you
I’m slowing down, what can I do?
It’s hard to stay one step ahead of you
VERSE 4:
One step ahead of you
Time is running out, catching up with you
One step ahead of you
When I hold you close can I really lose?
One step ahead, only one step ahead
She’s one step ahead of you…
