[A] [E]
[A] [E]
I never thought it would [A] happen with me and [E] the girl from Clapham
Out on [C#m] Lordy Common, that night I [E] ain't forgotten
We shaped our [A] operations with some [E] other passions
I said, [C#m] you are a lady, perhaps [E] she said, I may be
We moved into [A] a basement with thoughts of [E] our engagement
We stayed in [C#m] by the telly, although the [E] room was smelly
We spent our [A] time just kissing the railway [E] eyes when missing
His lover got a [C#m] tuk-tuk and all our [E] time it took her
I got a job [A] with Stanley, he said I'd [E] come in handy
It started [C#m] me on Monday, so I had a [E] bath on Sunday
I worked [A] eleven hours, bought the [E] girl some flowers
She said [C#m] she'd seen the doctor, but nothing [E]
now could stop her
[C#m]
I worked [G#m] out through the winter, the weather [F#m] bought some pizza
I put [Bm] away a tenner, each week to [Dm] make her better
When the [Am] time was ready, we had to [Gm] sell the telly
The evening's [F] by the fire, the little [A] kicks inside her
This [D]
[G] morning at 4.50, I took her [D] out to Nifty
Down to [Bm] Inverton, but [D] thirty minutes later
She gave birth [G] to a daughter, within a year [D] a walker
She looked just [Bm] like her mother, if there could [A] be another
[E]
Now she's [A] two years older, her mother's [E] with a soldier
She let me [C#m] hold my drink and became a [E] proper stay-in
The devil [A] came and took me from Barton [E] Street to Bookie
No more [C#m] nights by the telly, no more [E] nights nappy-snelling
[F#] Alone here in the [A] kitchen, I feel [E] there's something missing
I beg [D#m] for some [C#m] forgiveness, but [E] begging's not my business
And she [A] won't write a letter, and so I [E] always tell her
So [C#m] it's my assumption, I'm [C#] really [E] up the junction
