Dm7 G Am
in nineteen hundred and eighty six
Am Dm7
there's not much for a chippie or swing'in a pick
Dm7 G Am
and you can't live on love and on love alone
Am Dm7
so you sail cross the ocean away cross the foam
Dm7 G Am
to where your a paddy your a biddy your a mick
Am Dm7
good for nothin but stackin a brick
Dm7 G Am
your best mate's a spade and he carries a hod
Am Dm7
two work horses heavily shod
CHORUS
F C--G Dm7 F C Am
oh i'm missing you i'd give all for the price of a flight
F C--G Dm7 F C G
oh i'm missing you under picadilly's neon
then carry on as above
verse 2
who did you murder or are you a spy
i'm just fond of a drink help's me laugh help's me cry
now i just drink red biddy for a permanent high
i laugh a lot less and i'll cry till i die
CHORUS
verse 3
all ye young people now take my advice
before crossing the ocean you'd better think twice
cause you can't live without love , without love alone
the proof is around london in the nobody zone
where the summer is fine but the winter's a fridge
wrapped up in old cardboard under charing cross bridge
and i'll never go home now because of the shame
of a misfits reflection in a shop window pane
CHORUS TWICE
