D At the back end of townA At the unholiest hourG You may find love in a snugD But if you’re not in-the-knowA G Sure, you wouldn’t even know it was there [Verse 2]D With my face stung with drinkA G I am longing for my restD Tuesday morning is dawningA G I’m still stood in my Sunday best [Verse 3]D A Can you hear the clicking of bootheels on barstools?G And see the bald, chalkless tips of the pool cues?D A G And the three-bar heater that is gasping for air [Chorus]D A I’m remembering the day that you found meG Comparing field notes with all the other bowsiesD A G But on the third day, I’m going to wise up again [Verse 4]D A There’s a man whispering something profoundG Ah, but it falls on deaf on ears and is drownedD By the great slagging matchA G That is reaching its final round [Verse 5]D Husband turning to wifeA G “Ah, little darling, won’t you bless me with your palm?”D A But in this hail of blue languageG She shoots him downContinues after the ad[Verse 6]D A And the worn, haggard suit who thinks I am a muteG He says, “Here kid, I’ve never done no wrong”D A I exhale with a grimaceG And I burst into song [Chorus]D A While remembering the day that you found meG Comparing field notes with all the other bowsiesD A G But on the third day, I’m going to wise up again I swear [Verse 7]D A Still, your man’s whispering something profoundG But it falls on deaf on ears and is drownedD By the great slagging matchA G That is reaching its final round [Bridge]D At the back end of townAm At the unholiest hourG You better keep walkingG Keep walking [Chorus]D A Let’s go back to the day at the Strawberry FairG When your ghostly left handG Picked the rosy red gemD And we danced on the cobblesA G ‘Til the graters were gone [Chorus]D A Let’s go back to the day at the Strawberry FairG When your ghostly left handG Picked the rosy red gemD And we danced on the cobblesA G ‘Til the graters were goneD Rain, rain, go awayA G I’ll come down another dayD Rain, rain, go awayA G I’ll come down another dayD A Rain, rain, go awayG G I’ll come down another day nowD Rain, rain go awayA G I’ll come down another day nowG Not today, not todayD Rain, rain, go awayA G I’ll come down another day nowG Not today, noD Rain, rain, go awayA G I’ll come down another day nowD Rain, rain, go awayA G I’ll come down another dayG Not today, not today, noD Rain, rain, go awayA G I’ll come down another day, oh (spoken) N.C. You have to leave home To find home sometimesD At the back end of townA At the unholiest hourG You may find love in a snug
