[Em]   [D]   [C]        [G]

 [G]  Please s[D]end me a s[C]ign
And set me [G]up against the r[B]ain
And give me s[Em]omething [D]I can t[C]rust
In all the d[D]rama of change

 [G]   I f[D]ollowed a d[C]ream
And if a m[G]an is born to f[B]all
Then let me l[Em]ive aga[D]inst my c[C]reed
In all the fi[D]lth of it all

And I can d[C]rink my w[G]hiskey and water
And fix f[B]olly in p[Em]eace
Cos there's a p[C]rice you pay
To l[G]ive this way, its called a r[D]elease

 [G]  Please dr[D]op me a l[C]ine
And send me l[G]ove and sun to [B]boot
Cos I am i[Em]dle d[D]runk and [C]well
Busy with [D]nothing to do

 [G]  This b[D]ody is c[C]old
I have to m[G]ake the grade a[B]lone
Cos I have t[Em]raveled f[D]ar to f[C]ind
I need a r[D]oom of my own

Where I [C]can
Break ki[G]ndly with Fortune
Cos s[B]he's something to b[Em]e
She's spending [C]Saturdays in the[G] Baltic
With the [D]SSP

And I a[C]m charged g[G]uilty as sin
Because i[B]t hurts me to k[Em]now
That she is w[C]orking so hard
But [G]for the joy of st[D]ock control

[G]   [D]   [C]   [G]   [B]
[Em]   [D]   [C]   [D]   [C]   [G]

But let m[G]e sing [D]out to my[C]self
And polish o[G]ff these bottled c[B]ries
And send them [Em]down to S[D]aville R[C]ow
Cos I'm not r[D]eady to die

Bu[G]t I, I'm r[D]eady to l[C]ive
Can I m[G]ake it out with p[B]ride
Play the l[Em]eft wing [D]let down k[C]ing
Put out there s[D]omething to hide

And I[C] can run t[G]o you for cover and
We[B]'ll bury the d[Em]read
And when the t[C]ime has come for l[G]eaving
I will l[D]ove you instead

Oh won't [C]you sing so[G]mething in minor key
T[B]his stillness is b[Em]leak
Oh could we d[C]ream away the g[G]uilt
We have for the w[D]orking week

oh and in the [C]warm arms of a s[G]tranger I'm
T[B]oo happy to [Em]lie
I know we've b[C]oth been here b[G]efore
Just please don't[D] ask me why

And I [C]have
Walked h[G]ere with you close to me
B[B]ut never a[Em]lone
But won't you cl[C]ing to me in the m[G]ajor key
All the joy [D]I've known
All the joy [C]I've known
Oh  the j[G]oy I've k[C]nown (x4)
Lal[G]alala-la[C]lala (x3)
Lalala [G]la
