Intro ((Em-Em/Em7)x3 times ,then Dsus2)x4 times
GBm
You stop in the old cafe where you used to play pinball
CACG
And look for the air-raid shelter but it's gone and the cafe seems so
GBm
small and all the gardens That had trees and stolen apples
CAmCG
now have small businesses flourishing in cinder blocks
GAmBmC
Then they will call your name and hand you a gold watch
GAmBmC
Then they will call your name but it doesn't sound like much
EmCBmAm
And you'll never discover why it's like an old lover
GAmBmC
you can't touch anymore It doesn't mean much anymore
Dsus2 Em/Em7--------Dsus2(riff intro)
when you go back in time back in time
GBm
You head down to the local try to find a focal point
CAmCG
A scratch in the wallpaper but it's all been wallpapered over
GBm
Down at the newsagents it's all pornography
CACG
And you try to get high again but it's like time-lapse photography
GAmBmC
Then they will call your name and hand you a medal
GAmBmC
Or something more practical like a whistling kettle
EmCBmAm
and it'll test your metal Just try to keep grinning
GAmBmC
knowing that this feeling is Indulgence worse than sinning
Dsus2 Em/Em7--------Dsus2(riff intro)
trying to go back in time
Instrumental: G Bm C Am C (2 times then riff intro)
GBm
Photographs with a glossy finish letters lovers never finished
CAmCG
And there in a dusty drawer a necktie you once wore
GBm
And a girl you tried to court made you feel about two feet short
CACG
Where is she now today? What would she have to say?
GAmBmC
Then they will call your name and hand you a pension
GAmBmC
A bottle of pills that guarantee life extension
EmCBmAm
and give you a mention in the local boy makes good section
GAmBmC
But all the old news is like print stains across your mind
Dsus2 Em/Em7--------Dsus2(riff intro)
when you go back in time
