Strum
D-DU-UDU
There's  a light  that shines
 On everything  and everyone
And  it shines  so bright
Brighter  even than the sun
That's  what Minnie thinks
 As she walks  to meet her brother
 Who is nearly  two years older
 On a Saturday  night
 He's DJing  at some do
 On the edge  of town
 On the night  that Minnie Timperley  died
It's  such a beautiful  world
And  you're such a beautiful  girl
So  much that you  wanna try
 The world wants to sleep  with you tonight
 But Minnie
Minnie,  if I could
   /  etc
 I would give you the rest of my life
 How can a girl have sex
 With these pathetic teenage wrecks?
 Ah, football scarves
 The girls drink halves
 And her brothers crying
 Cos he has lost his decks
 Outside the air was cool
 An older guy sitting in his car
 Asked if Minnie needed a ride
 He thought he was still dangerous
 Paunchy but dangerous
 On the night that Minnie Timperley died
 A / G x 8
 Oh Minnie I can feel the pain
 Oh Minnie I can feel the pain
 Oh Minnie I can feel the pain
 The pain, the pain, the pain, pain, pain yeah
 Repeat, ad libbing vox.
