VERSE 1:

Bm                        C
   You spend your time in smoky rooms
      Bm                     C
where haggled old women with cheap perfume's say
Bm                   C
"it never happens to people like us you know"
Bm                           C
well nothing ever happened on it's own.

BRIDGE 1:

C                             D
And well the toilets smell of desperation
    Bm                  C
the streets all echo of aggravation
C (continued)        
and you wonder
             D
why you cant get no sleep
                Bm
when you've got nothing to do,
               C
and you've had nothing to eat
C (continued)
your life's slipping
C (continued)
and sliding right out of view
C (continued)
and there's absolutely nothing
     D
that you can do, well

CHORUS:

G                Dm                >
  We'll live and die,              >
               C                 D >
We'll live and die in these towns  >
Em             D                   >     x2
  Don't let it drag you down       >
             C                     >
Don't let it drag you down now     >

VERSE 2:

Bm                    C
  Dirty dishes from a tv meal
          Bm
that went cold from the wind
          C
through a smashed up window
Bm                    C
  You cant go out if anybody calls ya
        Bm
cos you cant have a bath
             C
when there's no hot water

BRIDGE 2:

         C
and your friends are out
       D
on the town again
        Bm                      C
and you ask yourself if it will ever end
C (continued)
and it's all too much for your head to take
                       D
just a matter of time before you break, well

CHORUS:

G                Dm                >
  We'll live and die,              >
               C                 D >
We'll live and die in these towns  >
Em             D                   >     x2
  Don't let it drag you down       >
             C                     >
Don't let it drag you down now     >

Am Am7 C
Now...
Am Am7 C D
Now...
