Chords for Lucy Spraggan - Tea and Toast - Lyrics

[E] Tom was born in 1942 with eyes of blue and the doctor said his birth [B] was far too fast _ _ _ _
_ _ [E] His heart stopped twice, but yet he survived as he took his first breath his mother [B] took her last _ _ _
_ [E] And his father knew that he wasn't to blame but he never quite looked at Tom [B] the same after that _ _ _ _
_ [E] And he rarely spoke about her, but [Gb] when he did he said your mother used [B] to say this _ _ _ _
_ [E] When the skies are looking pop my dear and your heart's lost all this [B] hope
[E] On there will be sunshine and all the dust will [D] go
[B] Skies will clear my darling.
I wake up with the one I love the most [Em] and in the morning.
I'll make you up
[B] _ _
some Tientos
_ Well, _ _ _ [E] he met through a friend who introduced them and the first thing Tom said [B] was would you like to dance? _ _ _ _
_ [E] They moved with each other and when the music got slower, he said don't let [B] go of my hand _ _ _ _
_ [Em] [E] He said it's only polite if I ask you tonight, would it be alright if [B] I could walk you home? _ _ _ _
_ [G] [E] The night order of his birth and he said when it hurt [Gbm] he thought about what [B] his mother said about Tientos
Well _ _ _
_ [G] [Em] two quick years they went by they [B] were side by side _
_ [Em] And without a plan they conceived [B] a little child
He [E] said woman.
I love you.
I'm this [B] you know, but I only had enough for our food [Abm] and clothes
But I love you in this baby until the day that I die
[E] She said we'll take care of this little [Bm] life and we'll fall in love with her baby [Abm] blue eyes and we'll be alright
From some advice that I know
[E] She said I never got to meet her [Gb] if I did I'm sure your mother [B] would have said this
When _ _ _
_ [G] [E] the skies are looking up my dear and your heart's lost all [Bm] this hope
[E] After dawn there will be sunshine and all the dust [B] will go
_ Skies will clear my darling will show this baby all the love we know [G] [E] and in the morning.
I'll make you up
[B] _ _ _
some Tientos _ _ _ _ _ _
[Em] Well, he took those words and he made them [B] proud he worked day after day and hour after [Abm] hour
So they could buy a little house just on the outside of town _
[E] The little girl grew up and so did [B] they they said that they loved each other every [Abm] day and four years later
That brings us to now _
[E] And as they're walking down the street her rib loosens on [B] his hand he puts her arm around her side as she falls to [Abm] the ground
He hears her breathing and that's the only sound _
_ [E] Her body on the floor attracts a worried crowd [Gbm] tears roll off his face as he says don't let [Abm] go now
And _ _ _ [E] he's sitting by a bed in the hospital [B] ward and their daughter walks in with a family [Abm] of her own
She _
_ _ [E] says that I don't know she can hear you [Gb] now, but there's one thing mum [B] would want you to know _ _ _ _
_ [E] When the skies are looking up my dear and your heart's lost all [Bm] its hope
[E] After dawn there will be sunshine and all the dust will [D] go
[B] Skies will clear my darling now.
It's time for you to let [Em] go I'll wake you up in the morning
[B]
with _ some Tientos _ _ _ _
