Chocolate Girl

Key: FMedium

Alan Fdoesn't understand her A Dm C

He oFnly thinks in numbers A Dm C

He Amonly drinks in Dmrestaurants

Where the Agirls are fully cCovered

And Fhe can't trust his yearnings A Dm C

And he Fdoesn't like pretending A Dm C

His Amtempers stretched Dmso much by work

His Aheart needs gentle Crending

AHe calls her the Cchocolate girl A Dm C

'cause he Amthinks she melts when he tDmouches her A Dm C

AShe knows she's the Cchocolate girl A Dm C

'cause she's Ambroken up and sDmwallowed

And Awrapped in bits of Csilver

Alan Fdoesn't understand this A Dm C

He Fsays he's only human A Dm C

So Amhe still lights up Dmwith old flames

As Aif to try and Cprove it

And he Fdoesn't like emotion A Dm C

He's not Fcertain of their ardour A Dm C

If Ampouting carriesDm so much fun

Then Abreaking hearts is Charder

AHe calls her the Cchocolate girl A Dm C

'cause he Amthinks she melts when he tDmouches her A Dm C

AShe knows she's the Cchocolate girl A Dm C

'cause she's Ambroken up and sDmwallowed

And Awrapped in bits of Csilver

Alan Fdoesn't understand her A Dm C

He Fthinks it's getting harder A Dm C

So he Amspends the night Dmwith old friends

AUnderneath the Ccovers

AHe calls her the Cchocolate girl A Dm C

'cause he Amthinks she melts when he tDmouches her A Dm C

AShe knows she's the Cchocolate girl A Dm C

'cause she's Ambroken up and sDmwallowed

And Awrapped in bits of Csilver

AHe calls her the Cchocolate girl A Dm C

'cause he Amthinks she melts when he tDmouches her A Dm C

AShe knows she's the Cchocolate girl A Dm C

'cause she's Ambroken up and sDmwallowed

And Awrapped in bits of Csilver

Town To Be Blamed

Key: AmEasy

Fmaj7

Close your Ameyes and go to sGleep

From the howling, Fmaj7howling over these sEmtreets,

'Cause people sAmtare, 'cause you're so Gmad

That wild, wilFmaj7d spark, that innocent Emlaugh

But baby, that's Amthis town,

It won't happen Gnext time

Yeah, baby that's Fmaj7this town

Lovers on lEmove downs,

It's this town to be Amblamed G Fmaj7 Em

At the top of the Amblock there's a Gchurch

At the top of the Fmaj7tower there's a Emclock

And it Amrings and it Gsighs

'Cause there's Fmaj7no time for all these Emlies

But baby, that's Amthis town,

It won't happen Gnext time

Yeah, baby that's Fmaj7this town

Lovers on lEmove downs,

It's this town to be AmblamedG Fmaj7 Em

Baby take a Amwalk round to my Ghouse

Fmaj7Throw off these tired eyes and Emtears and these frowns

Take that Amlane so narrow anGd deep

And walk those Fmaj7regrets that fill your Emsleep

You say your sleep is Amnaked but your dreams are Gclothed

What about your Fmaj7footsteps, who sees them Emgo?

Who lets you Amknow about these Gthings?

Who's gonna Fmaj7say the things we Emthink?

So take your Amkeys and pack your Gbags

But leave your Fmaj7books and leave your Emmaps

(Bang it out - go mad)

But baby, that'sAm this town,

It won't happen Gnext time

Sure, baby that's Fmaj7this town

Lovers on lEmove downs,

It won't happen next Amtime

SureAm baby, that's this town,

It won't happen Gnext time

Yeah, baby that's Fmaj7this town

Lovers on lEmove downs,

It's this town to be Amblamed G

It's this town to be Fmaj7blamed Em

It's this town to be Amblamed G Fmaj7 Em

Love And Regret

Key: AMedium

C#m

ACold dawn won`t comfort yoEu

ACold coffee won`t see you tEhrough

ACold sheets won`t heal yourE heart

AYour frozen fingers or your nameE so tarred

EI know so rareC#mly that thingsA come your way B

EYour ways are tenderC#m and your paths are sAtraight B

EYour mind`s not lived C#min the way ourAs are set B

EYour heart is openC#m to love aAnd regret B

ARings and letters they pass yoEu by

You wish them well and seldom cry

For stones and promises and wedding sighs

You`ve known the times that you`ve lived and died

EThese sailors come C#mand spend tiAme ashore B

Their thoughts are hoarded as yours have been stored

Your mind`s not lived in the way ours are set

Your heart is open to love and regret

E AOutside in the morning air E

I hear the soundtrack of the Blues harp player

It touches feelings that you don`t arouse

Knocks me back to that shuttered house

Take me back when they`re all out

Take me back to that shuttered house

bd = bend down bu = bend up

I know so rarely that things come your way

Your ways are tender and your paths are straight

Your mind`s not lived in the way ours are set

Your heart is open to love and regret

Love and regret

Dignity

Key: FMedium

FAmBbC

Thers a Fman I meet

Walks Amup our street

he's a woBbrker for the council

Has been C20 years

He takFes no lip off nobody

and lAmitter off the gutter

he pBbuts it in a bag

and nCever thinks to mutter

He paFcks his lunch in a sunblest bag

and the cAmhildren call him bogey

he nBbever lets on

but i Cknow cos he once told me

He lFet me know a secret

about tAmhe money in his kitty

He's gBbonnae by a dingy

gonna Ccall her Dig-ni-ty

And I'll Fsail her up the West coast

through Amvillages n towns

I'll Bbbe on my holidays

and theyC'll be doin their rounds

they'll Fask me how I got her

I'll say AmI saved my money

they'll say Bbisn't she pretty

that Cship called dig-ni-ty

It goes sometin like that all the way through,

well thats how I cowboy it anyway sounds just as good.

If anybody out there knows different feel free to amend

it. Hope you enjoy this true CLASSIC absolutely

AMAZING
