DEATH ON THE STAIRS

A
From way far across the sea
F
Came an eritsean maiden she
GM
Had a one track mind and eyes for me
GM
Half blinded in the war
CM
With a pale young anglican
F
Who said he`d help her all he can
A D
Showed her Jesus and his little un-holy friend
CM
She had no mind to please him
F A
Just say `ta-ra` and leave him behind

There`s a little boy in a stairwell who say
I hate people like you
Got matches & cable TV half of less than 50p
We all clambered over the balcony
Banging on the window waking steve
Bringing with a new love his un-holy friend
If you really need it you mustn`t leave it behind
A D
Please kill me no don`t kill me
F
But don`t bring that ghost round to my door

I don`t wanna see them anymore

A D
Please kill me no don`t kill me
F
But don`t bang on about yesterday
I wouldn`t know about that anyway


Monkey asked the mouse before
If she loved anybody more than he
It turns you into stone
Now i`m reversing down this lonely street
To a cheap hotel when i can meet the past
And pay it off and keep it sweet
It`s sweet like nothing at all
Yes i`ve seen you there how could i help but stare
It rips the heart out off your body
Now i`ve taken far too much to think
Or see or touch what`s real i`m stranded on this street that
Paved my only way home
You really need it you just won`t leave it behind
He got nothing he got nothing at all
