[Ebm] [Bbm]
[Eb] [Ebm]
[Bbm] I swept the [Ebm] floors of old

I've [B] thrown berries [Gb] and ice cream
[B] Off cricket and cold beer
[Ebm] These days don't cost a [B] thing to play
[Db] But Paris has gone
[Ebm] Somewhere in the [B] distance
I've got the tears of [Db] Christ
I've given my heart to Jesus

These days won't be so smart
[B] They won't give reason but
[Db] The tower of love [Gb] has gone
[Ebm] Somewhere in the distance
[B] I've got the tears of [Db] Christ
I've given my heart to Jesus

When we are swept [Ebm] away
[B] Oh darling I [Gb] will be home
[B] Darling I will [Gb] be home soon
A [Ebm]
[Gb]
ring of roses
A pocket full of bones
[Ebm] A tissue, [Gb] a tissue
We all fall right [B] through
