Four Leaf Clover

The Kooks


Tom: Em

Em
Sitting in a mess still undressed
C                       D
As a kettle whistle blows
Em
Paperback novelette still open
C                    D
And the door is closed

[Pre-Chorus]
Em D C                   Em D C
You got a real sick mind
C                          Em D C
You write a column for The Times
C                       Em D
For all the lovers gone blind
C                        D
Who are looking for a sign

[Chorus]
Em  D        C        D
And when the night is over
G       D         C   D
And the drugs are gone
Em         D           C         D
All you've got is your four leaf clover
G    D           C   D
You keep inside your coat
Em  D        C        D
And when the night is over
G        D        C   D
And the drugs are gone
Em       D            C        D
You feel the world is getting colder
G       D         C     D
You got no one to hold

[Verse 2]
Em
Six pages down and she's lighting up
C                   D
Her trainwreck soul
Em
She was abandoned by her lover
C               D
Left by the road
Em
So apalling, scrawling those bullshit words
C                D
It's thirsty work
Em
She'll stumble down to the booze in her
C                    D
Just to have a flirt

[Pre-Chorus]
Em D C                   Em D C
You got a real sick mind
C                          Em D C
You write a column for The Times
C                       Em D C
For all the lovers gone blind
C                        D
Who are looking for a sign

[Chorus]
Em  D        C        D
And when the night is over
G       D         C   D
And the drugs are gone
Em         D           C         D
All you've got is your four leaf clover
G    D           C   D
You keep inside your coat
Em  D        C        D
And when the night is over
G        D        C   D
And the drugs are gone
Em       D            C        D
You feel the world is getting colder
G       D         C
You got no one to hold
G       D         Em   D C
You got no one to hold

[Bridge]
Em D C                   Em
You got a real sick mind
F#                  Bm   B
You got a real sick mind

[Chorus]
Em  D        C        D
And when the night is over
G       D         C   D
And the drugs are gone
Em         D           C         D
All you've got is your four leaf clover
G    D           C   D
You keep inside your coat
Em  D        C        D
And when the night is over
G        D        C   D
And the drugs are gone
Em       D            C        D
You feel the world is getting colder
G       D         C     D
You got no one to hold

[Outro]
G       D          C
You got no one to hold
G       D          C
You got no one to hold
G       D          C
You got no one to hold
