Primrose Hill (Capo 2)
( C ) Living on the side of Primrose Hill
Drinking ( F ) cans of Tennants just can't seem to get my fill
G?t a ( G ) beat up guitar and a dirty old sleeping bag
And this ( F ) mangy dog whose tail don't wag
( C ) Sun's been shining down on my hillside bed
( F ) That's not the only reason my face is so red
This ( G ) nasty cut on my nose is not from no fight
I just fell ( F ) down yesterday or maybe it was last night
( C ) And I used to sing and play down in the underground
( F ) But a few years back they started cracking down
Now I'm ( G ) living on the side of Primrose Hill
I'm no ( F ) tourist attraction but I give them a thrill
interlude
( C ) Yeah I see you riding by on your flash bicycle
Yeah they ( F ) can do you for that on Primrose Hill
( G ) A pretty young mother goes by she's pushing her pram
( F ) Her little baby leans out just to see what I am
( C ) From the top of the hill there's a hell of a view
( F ) Houses of Parliament and London Zoo
Those ( G ) politicians all chatter they trumpet and roar
That must ( F ) be what those hyenas all are laughing for
( C ) When you come up to London it sure is something to see
( F ) It's somewhere to go but it's no place to be
And there's ( G ) two things keeping me from going 'round the bend
( F ) I got my music and this dog for a friend
interlude
( C ) 'Cause life gets slippery when you're living on the side
Yeah I ( F ) know I should quit drinking but I haven't even tried
( G ) My mutt's licking my fingers and I'm wetting my lips
I got a ( F ) can of extra strong and a bag of chicken and chips
( C ) If I had a little money I'd get a few things
( F ) Like a bottle of vodka and a pack of new guitar strings
I guess ( G ) I could die here on the side of this hill
( F ) I'm no tourist attraction but I'd give them a chill
( C ) And I'm living on the side Of Primrose Hill
Drinking ( F ) cans of Tennants Just can't seem to get my fill
G?t a ( G ) beat up guitar And dirty old sleeping bag
( F ) This mangy dog Whose tail won't wag ( C )
