Key:
G C Well it tastes like a Sunday,
D There should be music in the
Bm front room,
C Bm and the markets a'milling with the
D people in the afternoon.
G C And there's a question to be asked
D Bm if you're drinking alone,
C Bm It's what horse were you thrown from
D which riderless goes on?
C D
G C O it must have been a near thing,
D Bm But no novelty to you,
C Bm all the trains and the buses and the
D cinemas too,
G C Breaking down, the bloody town, all
D Bm reared up like a snake,
C Bm For all goodness sake don't
D touch it or you'll never wake up... [Chorus]
Continues after the ad
C D C His father misses him, His mother
D misses him,
Bm C His lady dreams of kissing him,
C D Bm Bring the sun back, Bring the
C sun back,
C D It's been dark, now it's cold,
Bm C When the night falls,
C D Bm Bring the sun back, Bring the
C sun back,
C D G It's a blackbird, he's in the belly. ocultar tablatura [Solo]

[Verse]
G C D Well it's cold, it's cold, it's cold
Bm and it's cold,
C Bm But you've a roof over your head and
D a comfortable bed,
G C Now I'll be better, I'll be true,
D Bm doing things like I ought to,
C Bm If this bird lands in the black
D lands of Tulla when it's due...
C D C His father misses him, His mother
D misses him,
Bm C His lady dreams of kissing him,
C D Bm Bring the sun back, Bring the
C sun back,
C D It's been dark, now it's cold,
Bm C When the night falls,
C D Bm Bring the sun back, Bring the
C sun back,
C D G It's a blackbird, he's in the belly.
C D G It's a blackbird, he's in the belly.
C D The night's a blackbird, We're in
G the belly.
