Man Out Of Time

Elvis Costello

Transposer:

Song: Man out of time Artist: Elvis Costello and The Attractions Composer: Elvis Costello Album: Imperial bedroom Tabbed by: DJ   28th Jan 2015 If you want to miss the descending bass note at the end of all the verses it could instead be played as... ...that would follow him a - round! Elvis just goes straight for the B7 rather than the B major... ...that would follow him around! On the record and in early TV appearances he plays E4 chords in the intro and verses. In some later concert videos Elvis plays F#m11 instead of the E4 chords.                    In the choruses Elvis just plays a straight E chord the E/G# is suggested by the bass guitar progression.        = 022100         = x24442         = x02220       = 022200    /   = x04442    dim = x1232x    = x44200    / = 4x444x        = x21202 C#m     = x46654                          Please select a star rating for this tab many thanks ============================================================================= [Intro] |  /  /  /  /  |  /  /  /  /  |  /  /  /  /  |  /  /  /  /  | [Verse 1]    So this is where he came to hide-----     when he ran from you?       In a private detective overcoat          and dirty dead men’s shoes    The pretty things of Knightsbridge ...lying for a Minister of State        Are a far cry from the nod and wink here at Traitors’ Gate ’Cause the high heel he used to be has been ground down And he listens for the footsteps that would follow him a - round---------!

La chanson évoque l'angoisse et la mélancolie d'un homme qui se sent hors du temps, perdu dans un monde qui lui échappe. Ce personnage, habillé de manière décalée, semble fuir un passé révolu et des relations fragiles, se questionnant sur la possibilité d'être aimé malgré ses erreurs et son incapacité à s’adapter à son environnement. Les parallèle entre ses souvenirs et la dure réalité qu'il affronte mettent en lumière une lutte intérieure profonde. Dans un contexte plus large, on perçoit un reflet des tensions sociétales et d'un désenchantement vis-à-vis des valeurs modernes. Ce témoignage poignant de l'isolement et de la quête d'amour illustre un besoin fondamental de connexion et de compréhension dans un monde souvent cruel.
