[A] [F#m] [E] [A] [F#m] [E]
With her [A]hair up in his [D]fing[A]ers, [A]The fish and chips smell [D]ling[A]ers
Un[E]der amber [A]street[E]lamps, [E]She holds the law in [A]her [E]hands
The [D]moistness of the [G]damp [D]night, [Bm]Falls silent through the [E]lamp[A]light
[F#m]Although she's only [E]four[D]teen, She [Bm]really knows her [E]court[A]ing.
A F#m E (x2)
[A]And up the railway [D]sid[A]ings, [A]There's him and her They're [D]ly[A]ing
Ha[E]nd in hand they [A]whis[E]per, [E]You're my missus I'm your [A]mis[E]ter
The [D]moon was white and [G]vir[D]gin, And [Bm]she was on the [E]turn[A]ing
[F#m]Remember your first [E]nibb[D]le, When [Bm]best friends were so [E]lit[A]tle.
A F#m E (x2)
They [A]really trooped the [D]colou[A]rs, [A]When walking with each [D]oth[A]er
And [E]all her mates would [A]gigg[E]le, [E]As ladylike she'd [A]wigg[E]le
All [D]along the [G]high [D]street, [Bm]They'd splash out on an [E]ice [A]cream
[F#m]He'd sometimes really [E]treat [D]her, when he'd [Bm]done his mother's [E]met[A]er
A F#m E (x2)
Well [A]he went off to [D]Bors[A]tal, [A]He said that he was [D]forced [A]to
[E]Rob the flats of [A]Hi [E]Fi's [E]Cuz she was ill and [A]she would [E]cry
Each [D]morning she got [G]sick[D]er, [Bm]Her mother sometimes [E]hit [A]her
[F#m]If she'd have known the [E]stor[D]y, She [Bm]would have been so [E]sor[A]ry
A F#m E (x2)
(MID 8)
[F#m]He received a letter and admitted it
There was nothing else to do but to get rid of it
[Bm]Lonely in his dormitory He'd sit and stare, Is this for [D]real, and is it really fair?[E]
