Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
100  years and it feels that long,
She  sits in that seat she cries to that song
She's  never felt so lonely
 Fminor
 On the tip of her tongue....nobody loves me
And  every night at seven or so....
She  books her ticket to her favourite show
It's  more than just filling up her days,
 Fminor
 It's who she is and the way she's going to stay.
 (Guitar 2 plays top 4 strings of these chords (upstrokes)
The  final night comes and she slips on her dress
Waves  down her cab and her driver in his vest
Say's  what a pleasure its been all these years
 Fminor
 To drive her round town all the envy of her peers
 GM A#minor D#minor F#Minor
 and time....don't go so slowly anymore
Strange  days  in her  doorway, so drunk  she's on her knees
 All night  till the morning awake  with her disease.
 repeat intro
 same as verse 1 here are lyrics anyway
 She steps out the car her best shoes on her feet
 Walks up the steps and is taken to her seat
 She always dreamt when she got older
 She'd be the star of the show loved and looked after
 Boy takes her coat as she looks him in the eye
 She pulls on his shirt as she starts to cry...
 Why have i wasted all this time?
 Chasing a dream that could never be mine
 The lights come up and the audience leave
 The man to her left rolls down his sleeves
 The stench of the drink and the state she was in..
 The curtain comes down as she finishes her Gin
 and time....don't go so slowly anymore
 Repeat Chorus
Would  you remember the faces  with no heads?
Would  you remember the faces  with no heads?
Cos  i don't know
Cos  i don't know
 end on :CM
 thanks guys,
 enjoy.
