Verse 1

Well, g^Emrey clouds wrapped round the ^Cmaj7town like elastic

C^Dars stood like toys made of T^Gaiwanese p^Glastic

The ^Emboy laughed at the spastic

D^Cmaj7ancing around in the ^Drain ^Dsus4 ^D

While l^Emaundrettes cleaned clothes, high ^Cmaj7heals rubbed toes

P^Duddles splashed huddles of ^Gbus stop ^Gcrows

Dr^Emessed in their suits and their ^Cmaj7boots

Well they all look the ^Dsame ^Dsus4 ^D

Bridge

I t^Cook myself down to the c^Dafe to find all

With a needle and thr^Gead ^G7

The ^Gboys lost in ^Gbooks and cr^Emackling ^Dvinyl

And c^Carved out a poem a^Dbove the urinal that r^Gead ^G7

Chorus

Don't you cr^Cy for the lost, s^Dmile for the living

G^Get what you ^Gneed and give ^Emwhat you're given ^D

Or you're better off d^Emead

Verse 2

While the ^Emevening pulled the moon ^Cmaj7out of its packet

St^Dars shone like buttons on an ^Gold man's j^Gacket

We n^Emeeded a nail but we t^Cmaj7acked it

Till it fell off the w^Dall ^Dsus4 ^D

While p^Emigeon's pecked trains, sp^Cmaj7arks flew like planes

You know l^Dife's for the living so l^Cive it

The r^Dain showed the rainbows in the ^Goil stai^Gns

And we ^Emall had new iPhones

But n^Cmaj7o one had no one to c^Dall ^Dsus4 ^D

Bridge

And ^CI stumbled down to the s^Dtomach of the town

P^Cmaj7aid off your mortgage and l^Doans ^Dsus4 ^D

Oh h^Emell with this place, I'll ^Cmaj7go it my own way

I'll st^Dick out my thumb and I tr^Gudge down the ^Ghighway

S^Emomeday someone must be ^Cmaj7going my way h^Dome ^Dsus4 ^D

With a m^Gattress of l^Geaves and a bl^Emanket of stars ^D

With a h^Dand to the sky and a m^Cist in her eye she s^Gaid ^G7

And I'll st^Citch the words into my h^Deart

With a needle and thr^Gead ^G7
