[Verse 1]
Am G
Son I’m only passing through, I just called by to say
F Dm Am
My respects to an old friend who passed away
Am G
Tell your Ma, I’ll see her after, I’m not hanging round this place
F Dm Am
The temptation is too much for me to take
[Chorus]
C
When they found him, he was still
Dm
Stone cold on St. Michael’s hill
F G
He scored bad gear in Henrietta Place
Am
All the drunkards they stay local
G
All the junkies go to town
F Dm Am
So I took my second chance & I got out
[Verse 2]
Am G
Son I’m straight but it aint great, I’m barely getting by
F Dm Am
With the boys I ran with dropping off like flies
Am G
I’m cosying a taxi in the midland’s afternoon
F Dm Am
Delivering their takeaways at night
[Chorus]
C
Well they’re making their confessions
Dm
In the lounge at funeral sessions
F G
There’s only so much sorrow you can drown
Am
Leaves a trace, does the dark years
G
On the hard faces of your peers
F Dm Am
Only ever leave the stool when it’s their round.
[Bridge]
C Dm
Still I miss waking up to find the horses in the garden
F G
Close the gate, they’ll eat your Mother’s flowers
C
Summer evening on the avenue
Dm
Playing squares or path to pavement
F G
E few tins with Sylvester’s & the Powers
[Verse 3]
Am G
Son I best be going, I don’t know when I’ll rise again
F Dm Am
Son I’m sorry that our prospects are so bleak
Am G
E funeral’s a sad excuse to see your only son
F Dm Am
But I’ll be back to my old tricks within a month
[Chorus]
C
In my head on a clear day
Dm
I hear my late great father say
F G
You come from here you only got 3 routes
Am
Be a drunkard & stay local
G
Be a gear head, go to town
F Dm Am
Or you take your second chance & you get out
C
All the drunkards they stay local
Dm
All the junkies go to town
F Dm Am
So I took my second chance & I got out
