 So who's that girl there?
 I wonder what went wrong
 So that she had  to roam the streets
 She don't  do major credit cards
 I doubt  she does receipts
 It's all not quite legitimate
 And what a scummy  man
 Just give  him half a chance
 I bet he'll rob  you if he can
 Can  see it in his eyes, yeah
 That he's  got a driving ban
 Amongst some other  offences
 And I've seen him with girls  of the night
 And  he told Roxanne to put on  her red light
 They're all infected but he'll  be alright
 Cause he's a  scumbag, don't  you know
 I said he's a scumbag, don't you  know!
 G F(v2)Bm- repeat a few times (only really play bottom 2 strings)

D---------024-|
A-------22----|
 E--33222------| repeat how many needed
  (bass)
 Although you're trying not to listen
 I bet your eyes are staring at the ground
 She makes a subtle proposition
 Sorry love I'll have to turn you down
And  oh  he must be up to something
 Want half a chance to show he's more than likely
 I've got a feeling in my stomach
 I start to wonder what his story might be
 What his story might be
 They  said it changes  when the sun  goes down
 And  they said it  changes when the  sun goes down
 And  they said it  changes when the  sun goes down
 Around  here
 Around
 guitar 1)
And  look here  comes a Ford Mondeo
 Isn't he Mister Inconspicuous
 And he don't have to say 'owt
 She understands she's here to get picked up
 And she's delighted when she sees him
 Pulling in and giving her the eye
 Because she must be fucking freezing
 Scantily clad beneath the clear night sky
 She don't stop in the winter, no and...
 They  said it changes  when the sun  goes down
 And  they said it  changes when the  sun goes down
 And  they said it  changes when the  sun goes down
 Around  here
 They  said it changes  when the sun  goes down
 And  they said it  changes when the  sun goes down
 And  they said it  changes when the  sun goes down
 Around  here
Around  here
What  a scummy man
Just  give him half a chance
 I bet he'll  rob you if he can
 Can  see it in his eyes that he's got a nasty  plan
 I hope you're not  involved  at all
 (not too sure what is here, mess about in Bb)
 Finish on B
 These guys are quality, singles coming out in january!
