Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Build  a bridge or maybe two
Together  held with footsteps she outgrew
 But now she sits alone, everyone's  long gone
She  dances in a photograph
When  it was good to joke and have a laugh
 But that was yesterday, if  only today
 Now the walls  are crawling faces
 that still breathe
 But before  she nods her head what's left but  sleep
 (Chorus 1)
 She hears a chorus  of factory girls
Singin'  in the streets
Drinkin'  their coca-colas
 After washing  your filthy sheets
 Chasin' down the avenue
After  a childhood that she never knew
 Choking on woodbine
Cigarettes  just kill the time
 Now the walls  are crawling faces
 that still breathe
 But before  she nods her head what's left but  sleep
 (Chorus 2)
 She hears a chorus  of factory girls
Singin'  aoin and all
Empty  are their pockets
 But their voices  are filled with song
 Come day go  day
 Wish in my heart it was Sunday
 Drinking buttermilk all  the week
 And whiskey on a Sunday  (traditional)
Now  the walls are crawling faces
 that still breathe
 But before  she nods her head what's left but  sleep
 (Chorus 1)
 (Chorus 2)
 Slayed Richard and his court  of Kings
He  stole my heart and many other things
 But me I took his crown
Wish  he was here to steal it now
