Tabbed by: Mick 2009 Bm Bm Am x4
D D A A (I said)
Bm Down at the street around half past nine I heard someone scream I found someone dying
Em His throat was slit from ear to ear
Bm He mumbled so low I could hardly hear
D Em I bent down low so I could hear what he said
D He said tell me the truth am I
Em nearly that dead
Continues after the ad
D I said you're close as you'll
A Bm ever be Oh yea you're as close as you'll ever be
Bm Down on the beach around half past five I saw a pretty girl on a deckchair reclining
Em A grin split her face from ear to ear
Bm I went up close I must have got too near
D Cos I never saw the guy on the
Em sea-front cafe Leaving his seat come and running my way
