Town To Be Blamed

           Am              G
Close your eyes and go to sleep
                  Fmaj7            
From the howling, howling over 
   Em
these streets,
               Am                  
'Cause people stare, 'cause you're 
   G
so mad
              Fmaj7                
That wild, wild spark, that 
  Em
innocent laugh

Refrain:
                 Am
But baby, that's this town,
                G
It won't happen next time
                  Fmaj7
Yeah, baby that's this town
           Em
Lovers on love downs,
                     Am     G   /  
It's this town to be blamed
Fmaj7   /  Em


                  Am              
At the top of the block there's a 
G
church
                  Fmaj7           
At the top of the tower there's a 
Em
clock
       Am           G
And it rings and it sighs
               Fmaj7               
'Cause there's no time for all 
  Em
these lies

                 Am
But baby, that's this town,
                G
It won't happen next time
                  Fmaj7
Yeah, baby that's this town
           Em
Lovers on love downs,
                     Am    G   /   
It's this town to be blamed
 Fmaj7   /  Em


(Picking)
            Am               G
Baby take a walk round to my house

Fmaj7                          Em
Throw off these tired eyes and tears
 and these frowns
          Am               G
Take that lane so narrow and deep
               Fmaj7            
And walk those regrets that fill 
      Em
your sleep
                      Am           
You say your sleep is naked but 
             G
your dreams are clothed
                Fmaj7              
What about your footsteps, who sees
      Em
 them go?
             Am              
Who lets you know about these 
 G
things?
            Fmaj7             Em
Who's gonna say the things we think?
             Am                 G
So take your keys and pack your bags
               Fmaj7               
But leave your books and leave your
 Em
 maps

(Bang it out - go mad)

                Am
But baby, that's this town,
                G
It won't happen next time
                  Fmaj7
Sure, baby that's this town
           Em
Lovers on love downs,
                     Am
It won't happen next time

    Am
Sure baby, that's this town,
                G
It won't happen next time
                  Fmaj7
Yeah, baby that's this town
           Em
Lovers on love downs,
                     Am        G
It's this town to be blamed
                     Fmaj7     Em
It's this town to be blamed
                     Am        G   
It's this town to be blamed
