Watching Nicky Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C]
[G]Watching Nicky turn

[Verse 1]
[G]
from [C]a girl into a wife
Is [G]like watching all the life
Drain [C]out of Nicky
[G]Seventeen last June,
[C]thirty four this May
What [G]else can I say [C]about you, Nicky?

[Verse 2]
[C]
Oh no, [G]she's not painting any more
[C]Spends the evenings locked indoors
And now [G]something's just not
Going right for [C]Nicky, oh yeah

[Verse 3]
Her [G]mother said,
she'd mind the kid
[C]And when it came she never did
[G]Now you're not smiling anymore,
no, [C]Nicky
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, [G]Nicky[C]
I re[G]member we went out and
[C]Got stuck under a bridge
The kids were [G]throwing
stones at me and Nick[C]y
If I [G]could see her now
I'd [C]shout across and say
Hey Nick[G]y, run away,
do it now Nick[C]y

[Verse 4]
Because [G]she's not painting any more
She [C]spends her evenings locked indoors
And now [G]something's just not
Going right for Nick[C]y, oh yeah

[Verse 5]
[G]Her mother said, she'd mind the kid
[C]But when it came she never did
[G]Now you're not smiling anymore,
no [C]Nicky
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, [F]Nicky[C]
Oh Nicky, oh Nick[F]y, [C]Nicky,
[G]mam[C]a,[G]
mama
[C]

[Verse 6]
Oh, [G]she's not painting any more
[C]Spends the evenings locked indoors
And now [G]something's just not
Going right for [C]Nicky

[Verse 7]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, oh, [G]Nicky
