[Intro]
G# D# C#
G# D# C#
[Verse]
G# D# C#
There is something I've been meaning to tell you
G# D# C#
When I die I intend to walk alone
G# D# C#
Through the streets where the corner boys commend me
G# D# C#
For making peace with the inner child from the mobile home
G# D# C#
Now I am handing back the medals that you pinned to my chest,
G#
We're at war,
D# C#
It's not safe out in the open
G# D# G#
And the padlock you are wearing around your neck
G# D# C#
Is a target for the cold, hungry half wits at dawn
G# D# C#
Who are struggling to compose another drinking song
G# D# C#
I feel safe amongst the hawkers and the gawkers
G# D# C#
Telling stories scribbled downon on decks of cards
G# D# C#
Flicking marbles through a mud stained maze of second hand ideas
G# D# C#
You draw a drag whilst admiring the sweet heads
G# D# C#
Of a city in the morning by Jack G Yeats
G# D# C#
Who's that at the door ah it's only reality,
G# D# C#
sure let him in makes sure he wipes his feet clean
G# D# C#
Let us dissect the word from the markets and the factories
N.C. C#
Bring me two glasses there is work to be done,
G# D# C#
fetch me two glasses there is work to be done
[Chorus]
G# D# C#
Let us compare Mothers and the madness in their method
G# D# C#
Let us compare Fathers and the shape of their jawlines
G# D# C#
Let us compare regretful sexual encounters
G# D#
Let us compare addictions, past and present
G# D# C#
Let us compare voices that dance in our heads
G# D# C#
Let us make a pact now, let us spit in our hands
G# D# C#
Let us compare songs that we wish we had written
G# D# G#
Let us console one another.
[Outro]
G# D# C#
There is something I've been meaning to tell you
G# D# C#
When I die I intend to walk alone
G# D# C#
through the streets where the corner boys salute me
G# D# C#
For making peace with the inner child from the mobile home
G# D# C#
For loosing sleep with the inner child from the mobile home
G# D# C#
For counting sheep with the inner child from the mobile home
