[Am]
Laughs and jokes
And dr[C]inks and sm[F]okes
And n[C]o lights on the stairs[F]
We were y[Am]oung, so young
And [C]always broke[F]
Not th[G]at we ever c[Am]ared[F]
Not th[C]at we[G] ever c[C]ared
Well, the h[G]oles in the w[F]alls
Were s[C]uch a lot[G]
Welcome to L[F]ondon town[C]
But when you're[G] new to i[F]t all
And you th[C]ink you're hot
You're not [G]planning on[F] hanging around[C]
P[C]eople would go on their d[F]ifferent ways
I l[C]eft to start a band[Am][F]
A n[G]ote came thr[F]ough the l[C]etter box[G]
In your ch[F]ildlike h[C]and
Oh, l[Am]aughs and jokes
And dr[C]inks and sm[F]okes
And n[C]o lights on the st[F]airs
We were y[Am]oung, so young
And [C]always broke[F]
Not th[G]at we ever c[Am]ared[F]
Not th[C]at we[G] ever c[C]ared
One d[G]ay I r[F]ode to wh[C]ere you were
The d[G]oorbell j[F]angled a n[C]ote
They b[G]uzzed me in[F]
I cl[C]imbed the stairs
In my b[G]oots and l[F]eather coat[C]
There's a[C]n old brass
Standing there [F]at the top
With[C]out her witch's [Am]broom[F]
It [G]almost s[F]eemed like a kn[C]ocking shop
When the g[G]irls came [F]out of their r[C]ooms
And they [G]all stood ar[F]ound
And st[C]ared at me
Two br[G]unettes [F]and a bl[C]onde[G]
Then the [F]old brass shr[C]ugged and said
We d[G]on't know [F]where she?[C]?s go[C]ne
Later on I picked [F]up the ball
And I t[C]ook off down the l[Am]ine[F]
I supp[G]ose by th[F]en I'd[C] realised
You'd[G] run in[F]to hard times[C]
Oh, l[Am]aughs and jokes
And dr[C]inks and sm[F]okes
And n[C]o lights on the st[F]airs
We were y[Am]oung, so young
And [C]always broke[F]
Not th[G]at we ever c[Am]ared[F]
