Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Thinking  of poems  of poverty
Sitting  with a tight  clenched wrist, thinking how  to gain authority
Oh  what a soft  touch of a boy
He'd  wander with pride  to sell and keep visions  to his self
 Visions to his self
We'd  talk of treasures,  and over-rated  games
We'd  steal the milk  bottles, sneaking through the back  round Jimmy's way.
What  we loved most  of all was sitting  around the shop
 Whilst this young boy was sitting all alone
 Sitting all alone,
Pondering  times  of sanctuary
He  was sitting taking his piano  lessons, we were  on half an E
Invested  life  in medicine which  isn’t the wisest  way to go
Had  so much shit  going on, convinced  he'd never win
 Convinced he was a  sin.
We'd  speak of women  and cheaper  carryout’s
We'd  turn up to all  the festivals, trying  to bring down the touts,
What  we loved most  of all was sitting  round the shop
 Whilst this poor boy was sitting all alone
 Sittin'  all a.
We'd  talk of treasures,  and over-rated  games
We'd  steal the milk  bottles, sneaking through the back  round Jimmy's way.
What  we loved most  of all was hanging  round the shop
 Whilst thing you boy was sitting all alone
He  didn’t find none of his own kind (none  of his own kind)
He  didn't have none of his own kind (none  of his own)
You  should take interest in his mind,  Not spend all of his  time,
 Wasting all his money  and time
Thinking  of poems  of poverty(writing  lines and drinking tea)
Sitting  with a tight  clenched wrist, thinking how  to gain authority
 (how to gain authority)
Oh  what a soft  touch of a don
He'd  wander with pride  to sell and keep visions  to his self
 Visions to his self
We'd  talk of treasures,  and over-rated  games
We'd  steal the milk  bottles, sneaking through the back  round Jimmy's way.
 (Heavier)
 What we loved most of all was hanging round the shop
 Whilst this young boy was sitting all alone
 Sittin'  all a.
We'd  talk of treasures,  and over-rated  games
We'd  steal the milk  bottles, sneaking through the back  round Jimmy's way.
What  we loved most  of all was hanging  round the shop
What  we loved most  was waiting  round the shop
What  we loved most  was sitting  round the shop,
What  we loved most  was hanging  round the shop while this young boy was sitting all alone
