[Verse]
           D          C    G
Quarter to ten at the A & E
             D                  C 
Where nobody thought they would 
         G
need to be
         D            C       G
Saturday night in the old country
               D          C     G
And we come to you on our knees

[Chorus]
D       Em       C         G    D
Take us in, will you, will you?
         Em       C           G    D
with the unlucky, the drunken too
        Em       C         G  D 
Take us in, will you, will 
Em  C  G  D
you____?

[Verse]
  G           D          C       
A blow to the head and a break to
     G
 the foot
               D               
And a party of revellers turned 
 C  G
meaner
           D            C         
A woman is red-eyed and reading a 
G
book
              D            C    G
With a child asleep at her feet

[Chorus]
D        Em         C       G     D
Have you been here, waiting long?
         Em           C           
With the others whose evening’s 
   G      D
gone wrong
         Em         C     
Have you been here, waiting 
  G  D Em  C  G  D
long____?

[Verse]
G          D             C G
Quarter to three and the NHS
              D         C         G
Has given our worries a bed to rest
            D            C        
Fluorescent lights and a handful 
  G
of tests
                       D           
A quick smile from the nurse on her
 C   G
 way

[Chorus]
D      Em        C        G    D
Smile again, can you, can you?
      Em         C                
after all of the things you’ve 
  G        D
been through
       Em        C        G  D 
Smile again, can you, can 
Em  C  G  D
you____?

[Bridge]
  G     C    G      D       Em  
A phone call breaks through 
  C           G        D
still night, "I’m sorry to wake you
G     C  G     D    Em     C  
We’re on floor two, Fulham 
    G   D
Palace Avenue"

[Verse]
G          D             C      
Quarter to eight, I walk out on 
    G
the street
                D          C    G
And Hammersmith Station’s alive with
           D               C   
Sunday day-shoppers who’ve risen 
       G
from sleep
                 D          C    G
Just sure that today will arrive

[Chorus]
D         Em       C          G
Take good care, my friend, my 
       D
friend
           Em     C          G     D
If there’s ever a hand I can lend
          Em       C        
Take good care, my friend, my 
  G   D  Em  C  G  D
friend____
