Tom: Am
Am C Dm E
[Verse 1]
Am F
Call me old fashioned
E
But I'm a little nervous about the future
Am C
I've got no enthusiasm
D E
For burgers or computers
Am C
Televisions bores me now
Dm E
In a hundred different ways
Am C
And the police are getting younger
D E
Getting younger every day
[Chorus]
Am C Dm E
All I wanted was some tender loving care
Am C Dm D E
Before it gets sponsored with the water and the air
[Verse 2]
Am
You want it
C
You've got it
Dm E
You took it all from me
Am C
My cheque book, my wallet
Dm E
My pride and dignity
Am C
And I can't even get a taxi
D E
To the safety of my house
Am C
The driver gets a nosebleed
Dm E
If he travels that far south
[Chorus]
Am C Dm E
All I wanted was some tender loving care
Am C Dm E
Before it gets sponsored with the water and the air
Am
Dear Claire
C
Sincerely
Dm
Bored of London
E
By the way
Am C Dm E
The police are getting younger every day
[Verse 3]
Am C
I want to see the sights I want to hear the songs
D E
About human right and about human wrongs
Am C
I'm as lovesick and as stupid as all the rubbish that I heard
D E
The public gets the music that no public could deserve
Am C
They put me in the spot light tied me to the stage
D E
The only thing I got right wa to lie about my age
Am C
I've been fitted up for size for Top Of The Pops
Dm D E
In a uniform supplied by the glam rock cops
[Chorus]
Am C Dm E
All I ever wanted was some tender loving care
Am C Dm E
Before it gets sponsored with the water and the air
Am
Dear Claire
C
Sincerely
D
Bored of London
E
By the way
Am C Dm E
The police are getting younger every day
[Outro]
Am C Dm E
Am C Dm E
Am C Dm E
Am C Dm E
