Album: Marjory Razorblade
Track: Eastbourne Ladies
This song sounds good just strummed lively on an acoustic guitar...
The chord I`ve labelled (probably wrongly) Gm/C is simply the top 5
strings barred on the 4th fret.
Intro: Cm Gm/C
Verse:
Cm Gm/C
Your always on your own,
Cm Gm/C
Sitting on your seaside chairs on your own.
B Cm Gm/C
Everybody passes you by.
Cm Gm/C
Nobody seems to care,
Cm Gm/C
if you flash your underwear.
B Cm Gm/C
No, I don`t tell no lie.
Cm Gm/C
Your bestest days are gone,
Cm Gm/C
Now you know you`re on the run.
B Cm Gm/C
Oh lady, why, why?
Cm Gm/C
Your white and powdered face,
Cm Gm/C
You need some holy grace.
B Cm Gm/C
Pull yourself right back again.
Chorus:
A Cm
Eastbourne ladies with your hair done up so nice.
A Cm
Eastbourne ladies with your tea and lemon ice.
D Cm
Lemon ice. Lemon ice.
Verse:
I think you need something new,
But you don`t know just what to do.
Croquette on the lawn, yet again.
You smile at passing boys.
You can`t offer any joys.
You don`t undestand your man.
Put your money in the bank,
Money in the bank, now lets be frank.
I want more,
More than 10000 pounds.
I want everything you`ve got.
I want the lot.
Gimmee gimmee gimmee gimmee all ye got.
Oh, help me. I need some,
I`m so poor now.
Chorus
Verse:
So I run around the town.
Looking at rows of you up and down.
I see you every,
everywhere.
I believe I have a choice,
I believe I`ve made my choice.
Come here lady, will turn brown.
50 years upon the beach
Should be done by now, you`re out of reach.
I hope I don`t bring you down.
Everything special about you
your pearls, your jewels and your money too,
Oh do you, wear a crown, when you got to bed, now.
Chorus
The lyrics in the last verse may have some mistakes!
Enjoy,
Chris
