Jamie T - Sheila (Explicit Version) chords
Start Jamming...
Sheila goes out with her [E] mate Stella, it gets poured [Dm] all over her fella
Cos she says man he ain't [C] no better than the next [G] man kicking up fuss
Drunk she stumbles [E] down by a river, [D] screams calling London
None of us heard her [Dm] coming, I guess the carpet [G] weren't rolled out
Oh now my love, my darling, [Em] you left me all alone
[G] How awful it is in London, which [Dm] once was all our own
[G] The vast suburban churches, [E] together we have found
The [D] one which spits smoke and gasolite, the one [A] which in its essence drowns
Her lingo [G] went from the cottage to the gringo
[E] Any time she'd sing a song the other [D] girls'd sing along
And tell all their fellas that the lady [C] is single
Pick a way [D] to tickle on my young [G] man's tingle
She's up for doing what she like any day, [E] more like the night
She ground rocks for us that she stole and bought [D] for us
She didn't like fads but at the same [C] time understood
Fellas do we better sue the end of [G] time
Good heavens you [E] boys, blue blooded murder of the English [D] tongue
[C]
[D] Jack had a gang that he called the [Em] Many Grams
He was known to smack [D] Jack the Quacker Man
In life he was dealt some [C] shit hands, I bet the boys got [G] the back now
And they went the same way [Em] as Mickey and Dan
The pen demands upon [D] the other ones
And my Lisa had [C] a baby with Sam
And now Jack's on [G] his own man
Well done Jack, lock down that [E] side of you
She's a slut and you'll never fucking [D] like her
Not like what he stopped so [C] shocked
Cause it turns out her last ass killed her by [G] a piper
Tough little big man, friends with your [E] daughters
Only cause they [Em] drive him to pick up on his [D] quarters
Broiler, like a lot of broilers
[C] Molded up real from their breed but they ain't need a [G] moulder
Too young come down by your hillside [E] corner
Always did a fever but never took her [G] order
Behave young Scallywag, a fine young [C] gal I had
Lagged ragged up but only ever getting [G] fag hats
Hung on his shoulder, cheap by a [Em] shop tag
Slagged bitter understand he came for the [D] glamour
But this time's original, superficial the [C] issue
For one near Jack the 35 duffel [G] gang
Sheila goes out with [Em] her mate Stella
Gets poured all [D] over her fella
Cause she says man he [C] ain't no better
Then the next man [G] kicking up fuss
Trump she stumbles down [Em] by the river
Screams [D] calling London
None of us [C] heard her coming
Guess the carpet [G] weren't rolled out
It's [Am] over man it's over
[E]
[G] So this is a short story about the girl [Em] Georgina
Never seen the worst, a clean young [Dm] mess
Under stress at best but she pleased to see [C] ya
We love God bless, we lay our body to rest
[G] Now we're all dear smarty with daddy's [Em] alcoholic
Lightweight, chicken down numb in his [D] brain
And the doctor said he couldn't get the heart near [C] starting
Now feet up, drugs drop, she's feeling a strain
[G] She says interrupt, what the fuck I'm supposed to [E] do?
Suck it up, [Em] start, start, keep running [D] through
True, when you try it ain't easy to do
[C] She's been buckled up, beating from the back like a [G] brat
Don't know where she's going but she knows where she at
[Em] So Georgie, it's time to chain react
[D] But the truth is you know she'll probably draw [C] back
Tears stream down her face, she screams [G] away when I fall
No one catch [E] me, alone, lonely, all over those slowly
[D] Get scared, I'll scream and shout
[A] But you know it won't last, she'll be [G] passing out
I say giggity, biggity, up for just another day
[Em] Another sad story, that's tragedy
[D] Paramedic announced death by 10 foot [C] 80
Rip it up, kick [Dm] it, spit up the [G] views
And she goes out with [Em] her mate Stella
And gets pulled all [G] over her fella
Cause she says money ain't [C] no [Cm] fella
Then the next [G] man kicking up bus
Drunk, she stumbles down by [Em] a river
Screams, call [G] in London
None of us heard her coming
Get the carpet, burnt road
And she goes out with her [Em] mate Stella
And gets pulled all over [G] her fella
[D] Cause she says money ain't no fella
Then the next man kicking up bus
Drunk, she stumbles down by [Em] a river
Screams, call [G] in London
None of us heard [C] her coming
[G] Get the carpet, burnt
