Tom: Am
C Am
Girls can keep a secret can't they
Dm G
And they didn't know
C Am
For almost thirty weeks before
Dm G
She started to show
Dm G
She'd always seem to grow so fast
Dm G
And all they ever had to do
C
Was ask
[Verse 2]
C Am
Boys can be such stupid bastards
Dm G
For a superior race
C Am
Mistaking all her tears for laughter
Dm G
I rest my case
Dm G
Maybe they were going steady
Dm
But the baby
G
She just wasn't ready
C E
For this world
Am F
For this world
[2x]
[Verse 3]
C Am
This world can be cruel sometimes
Dm G
For the easily led
C Am
Don't let yourself be fooled by sunshine
Dm G
And what the Bible says
Dm G
I'm not saying the Bible lies
Dm G
It's just that some things don't apply
C E
To this world
Am F
To this world
[2x]
[Solo]
Dm G x4
[Chorus 1]
C E
And all this comes to pass
Am F
When a child is born at last
C E
Into the world at The Hotel Fleapit
Am F
How could this girl keep her secret
[Verse 4]
Dm G
The prosecution and defence
Dm G
Stepped down and approached the bench
Dm G
As she lay the body on the table
Dm G
She wasn't ready fit or able
C E
For this world
Am F
For this world
[2x]
[Chorus 2]
C E
And all this comes to pass
Am F
When a child is born at last
C E
In this world
Am F
In this world
