Chords for Billy Bragg: St Swithin's Day (live in studio)

_ [G] Thinking _ back _ now, [F] _ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ I suppose [G] you were [F]
just stating your _ [G] views.
What was it _ all _ [G] for?
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
For [Fm] the weather, _ _ or the Battle of _ Agincourt, _
And [F] the times that we all hoped [C] would _ [G] last.
_ [Am] Like a train, they have gone by [Dm] so _ fast,
_ [C] And though we stood together [Am] at the edge of [Cm] the platform,
_ We were [Bb] not moved [F] by them. _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ With [G] my _ own _ _ _ _ _ hands,
_ [C] _ _ When I [G] make love [F] to your memory,
_ [C] _ _ _ It's not [G] the _ _ [F] same. _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ I miss [G] the thunder, _ [F] _ _ I miss the rain,
[C] _ _ And the [Bb] fact that you [C] don't [B] _ _ [F] _ understand _ _
Casts a shadow _ _ over [Dm] _
this land.
_ _ The sun _ [F] _ _ _ _ [C]
still _ _ shines from [F] _
behind _ it. _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Am] It's [C] not your _ _ [F] _
fault,
_ _ But [C] _
I just [F] can't bring myself to answer your [Cm] letters. _ _ _
Thanks all [G] the _ [F] same, _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
But [G] your honesty touches me like a fire.
_ [C] _ _ _
The [G] _ _ Polaroids that hold us [C] _ _ together
_ _ [F]
Will [Am] _ _ surely _ fade _ [D] away,
[Dm] _ _ _ _ _
Like the laugh that [F] we spoke [C] of forever _ _ _ _
[Bb] On St.
_ [F] Swithin's Day.
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ [Am] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
