1Well grey clouds wraped round the town like elastic
 C#14                            F#15         A#m716
2Cars stood like toys made of Taiwanese plastic
    D#m17
3The boy laughed at the spastic
  Bmaj718                C#19    G#20       C#21
4dancing around in the rain
       D#m22                               Bmaj723
5While laundrettes cleaned clothes, high heals rub toes
 C#24                          F#25        A#m726
6Puddles splashed huddles of bus stop crows
  D#m27
7Dressed in their suits and their

11I took myself down to the cafe to find all the
 F#34            A#m735         D#m36      C#37
12boys lost in books and crackling vinyl
     B38                 C#39                     F#40    F#741
13And carved out a poem above the urinal that read
            B42
14Don't you cry for the lost
  C#43
15Smile for the living
 F#44           A#m745       D#m46               C#47
16Get what you need and give what you're given
 B48                        C#49

23While the evening pulled the moon out of it's packet
  C#64                            F#65          A#m766
24Stars shone like buttons on an old man's jacket
    D#m67                   Bmaj768
25We needed a nail but we tacked it 'til
                 C#69    G#70       C#71
26it fell of the wall
       D#m72                              Bmaj773
27While pigeon's pecked trains, sparks flew like planes
     C#74                            F#75       A#m776
28The rain showed the rainbows in the oil stains
       D#m77
29And we all had new iPhones but
  Bmaj778                C#79    G#80       C#81
30no one had no one to call

    B82                       C#83
33And I stumbled down to the stomach of the town
           F#84           A#m785     D#m86          C#87
34Where the widow takes memories to slowly drown
        B88                     C#89                   F#90    F#791
35With a hand to the sky and a mist in her eye she said
            B92
36Don't you cry for the lost
  C#93
37Smile for the living

        F#132           A#m7133           D#m134         C#135
55With a mattress of leaves and a blanket of stars
           B136                       C#137                         F#138    F#7139
