Right, two, three.
[A] [E]
[A] [E] [A]
I never thought [A] it would happen with me and the [E] girl from Clapham
Out on [C#m] the windy common, that night [E] I ain't forgotten
But she'd [A] die off the rations, with some [E] other passions
I said [C#m] you are a lady, perhaps she [E] said I may be
We moved [A] into a basement, with thoughts [E] of our engagement
We stayed [C#m] in by the telly, though [E] the room was smelly
We spent [A] our time just kissing, the railway [E] house we're missing
This [C#m] lover got us hooked up, and all [A] our [E] time it took her
I got a job with Stanley, he said I'd come in handy
I [C#m] started me on Monday, so I had a [E] bath on Sunday
I worked [A] eleven hours, I bought the [E] girl some flowers
She said [C#m] she'd see the doctor, but nothing [E] now could stop her
[C#m] I worked [G#m] tough through the winter, when [F#m] the frost had bitter
I put [Bm] away a tether, sweet to [Dm] make her better
When the [Am] time was ready, we had to [Gm] sell the telly
The evenings [F] by the fire, with little [A] kicks inside her
[D] This morning [G] at twelve fifty, I took her [D] rather nifty
Down to her [Bm] nippy baby, but thirty [D] minutes later
She gave [G] birth to a daughter, within [D] a year or a walker
She looked just [Bm] like her mother, if there could [D] be another
[E] Now she's [A] two years older, her mother's [E] with a soldier
She left me [C#m] when I drank it, became a [E] prophet's stand
The devil [A] came and took me, from five to [E] street to boogie
No more nights [C#m] by the telly, no more nights [E] that be smelly
[A] Alone here in the kitchen, I feel there's [E] something missing
I begged for [C#m] some forgiveness, but begging's [E] not my business
But she [A] won't write a letter, though I [E] always tell her
So it's [C#m] my assumption, I'm really [E] up the junction
