Life in a Tenement Square


Intro

Am C D G
Am C E


Verse 1:

Am C D G
Well I kissed the day, I was on my way
Am C E
From those cold grey blocks of stone
Am C D G
For seventeen years of squalor filled tears
Am C G Am
A time now with innocence lost
C G
As the sun split the room with its rays filled with gloom
Am E7
Turnin all hope to despair
Am C D G
And the only thing left was to flee from the nest
Am C G Am
That was life in a Tenement Square

Interlude:

Verse 2:
Am C D G
I remember the song where the rats sang along
Am C E
And danced for their daily bread
Am C D G
While the damp washed the walls that were twenty feet tall
Am C G Am
Not a child in the house was fed
C G
On the porter filled face of the men left no trace
Am E7
Of the coin they had already spent
Am C D G
While our mothers asked God what was Hell ever for
Am C G Am
When you lived in a Tenement Square


Bridge:

G Am
Grab whats left of the coal from the ole cubbyhole
G Am
These cinders need more to be a fire
G Am
While the ghosts of the soldiers that lived there before us
C G Am
Laugh with their guns by their sides
C G Am
I hear them laugh, with their guns by their sides







Verse 3:
Am C D G
Now politicians they dwell in that forgotten Hell
Am C E
Our miserys been turned into news
Am C D G
Where the fat of the land now hog, hand in hand
Am C G Am
A crime now of life was ever true
C G
As the sun split the room with its rays filled with gloom
Am E7
Turnin all hope to despair
Am C D G
And the only thing left was to flee from the nest
Am C G Am
That was life in a Tenement Square
