Tom: Am
(intro A D E A, A D E
A D E A
Found a nice little cove where nobody else goes
D
Took a trip 'round the Caves of Drach
E
And said 'It's good to explore the more cultural aspects'.
A D E A
Hedley Verityesque, she passed into folklore
D
Trod on the lines in the pavement
E
And said 'There's no room for enigmas in built-up areas'.
C Am
Sweats who think they're hard, sweats who think they're hard
C Am
My head no end do in, head no end do in
Dm Am Dm Am
Brakes fail in the rain down memory lane
Dm E
Come re-live my paper round with me.
A D E A
And I don't see any more, I don't see any more pent up Alsatians
D
They used to wait by the door
E
And say 'It's nice to know you're here, it's nice to know you're here'.
A D E A
And I don't want any more, I don't want any more stark German film noirs
D
And I could well do without
E C Am C Am
The handclapping sequence at the end of Blockbusters.
Dm Am Dm Am
You were in my hall, now you're on my wall
Dm E A D E A, D E
Peter Sarstedt, Mister Irony - get in the hole.
C Am
In some warm lagoon, in some warm lagoon
C Am
I'll be with Ayshea soon, be with Ayshea soon
Dm Am Dm Am
Brakes fail in the rain down memory lane
Dm E
Come re-live my paper round with me.
A D E A
And I don't see any more, I don't see any more big mad Alsatians
D
They used to wait by the door
E
And sing 'It's nice to know you're here, it's nice to know you're here'.
A D E A
And I don't need any more, I don't need any more stark German film noirs
D
And I could well do without
E
The handclapping sequence at the end of Blockbusters
When all of the audience try to convince themselves
That what they're doing is silly but acceptable
E7 A
And the only thing I can say is 'Oh Kip Keino'.
