Em Em-1
When bonny Clive was twenty three
Em-2 Em-1
He took a dive from the balcony
Em Em-1
Embarrasing his blushing bride
Em-2 Em-1
Who took her red face for a ride
Am Am-1
To Blackpool and the pouring rain
Am-2 Am-1
She went out on the evening train
Em Em-1
Came in with the morning tide
Em-2 Em-1
As another seaside suicide
Em Em-1
It was summertime when Sally Clarke
Em-2 Em-1
Suffered from a broken heart
Em Em-1
That left her down and out of touch
Em-2 Em-1
The patron saint of nothing much
Am Am-1
No charity, no faith, no hope
Am-2 Am-1
She'd seen it on her favourite soap
Em Em-1
Take fifty thousand million pills
Em-2 Em-1
And don't forget to pay the bills
Em Em-1
Well I remember Mickey Doyle
Em-2 Em-1
He just shuffled off this mortal coil
Em Em-1
With no message for "that special girl"
Em-2 Em-1
Just thank you and goodbye cruel world
Am Am-1
Then for the sake of Auld Lang Syne
Am-2 Am-1
He put his head on the railway line
Em Em-1
Looked up at the morning sun
Em-2 Em-1
And waited for the train to come
Em F#m
The TV's repossessed and so
G D
I tune in to the radio
Em F#m
Where the DJ's play the same old songs
G D
To whistle while you're signing on
Em F#m
Give me the beat boy and free my soul
G D
Fill my pockets up with gold
Em F#m
I'll leave a message on the fridge
G D
And drive my car off London Bridge
Am Am-1
But London Bridge is falling down
Am-2 Am-1
There ain't no gold in Silvertown
Em Em-1
So I'm cancelling my driving test
Em-2 Em-1
And walking back to happiness
Em-1
Whoop bye oh yeah yeah!
Em
Everytime a churchbell rings
Another angel gets its wings
