[Db] [D] [C] [Bb] [C] [Eb]
[Dm]
[G] It's like some valentines day at the sugar candy store
Where the barman lays on the blood stained floor
With all the wines and the cocktails he won't be serving anymore
To the swingers and the roustabouts and the carnivore queen
Who's looking for the three Scrooges who are nowhere to be seen
[Eb] And life's just a bowl of cherries
A dead machine,
[G] taken aback, want, [Bb] want
[G] La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la [Gm] la la la la [Bb] la la la [A] [G] [F]
[Eb] la la la la la
[Bb]
[G] Sixteen men on a dead man's chest
They robbed him blind, then [Gm] dumb and then deaf
[Eb] And they left him there bleeding on the pavement to die
[C] And he went to that great high rise block in the [Bb] sky
[G] And the hands that do the dishes feel as soft as your face
Then they rob you of your pension and they [Gm] ransack your place
[Eb] Still you try to forgive like the babby Jesus did
[D] Though it's so hard [C] to be a saint [Bb] in the flats where [D] you live
[Bb] And you'll live there tomorrow and the day that you die
When [Gm] you'll go to that great high rise block in the sky
[Eb] And you'll meet the babby Jesus so you know you're in heaven
[D] And you'll get back the years that [Bb] you gave [D] in the taking [G] of heaven
