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