Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]It w[Bb]as se[Em]ven[Bb][Em]
o'clock in the morn[Bb]ing
Too [Em]late to handle the [Bb]day
At [Em]home it was only [Bb]two thirty
The [Em]skin on my wrists turn[Dm]ing [Bb]grey

[Verse 2]
[Em]Stood up, [A]wished us good luck
He [Em]changed his attitudes [A]twice
The [Em]box in the corner [A]shivered in fear
He was [Gsus4]tired and hun[C]gry for days.

[Verse 3]
[F#sus4]The next y[F#m]ear sh[Em]e
bought a new [Bb]stomach
From [Em]Liverpool made in De[Bb]troit
[Em]Constantly passing old [Bb]matches
Some [Em]sentries and million[Bb]aires

[Verse 4]
[Em]Who did? G[A]allagher did
The [Em]same old thing [A]every time
[Em]Gave up, [A]more empty cups
They were [C]tired and hungry [Gsus4]for night[F#sus4]s.

[Interlude 1]
[F#sus4][F#m][Em]
[D][Em][D][Em][D][A][G][A][G][A]
[G][F][C][F#m][Em]

[Verse 5]
It made life a littl [Bb]e easier
To have [Em]Holland on the [Bb]run
It [Em]did n't take that long to f[C]or[Bb]get her
[Em]My old man and his gun[Bb]

[Verse 6]
[Em]Rushed out, [A]lions about
[Em]Wasting away on ad[A]vice
A [Em]hundred [A]and three, 400 or more
It'll [C]haunt you for the rest of your [F#sus4]life[F#m][F#sus4]

[Outro 1]
