     INTRO
      G5   B5   A5   D5

      G5                        E5
      You have never been in love
                              B5
      until you've seen the stars
                        D5
      reflect in the reservoirs
      G5                            E5
      and you have never been in love
                              B5
      until you've seen the dawn rise
               D5
      behind the Home For The Blind

BRIDGE
                   A5           E5     B5 - Bb5 - A5
      we are the Pretty Petty Thieves
    A5                             E5
      and you're standing on our streets

CHORUS (x2)
               D5             G5
      where Hector was the first of the gang with a gun in his hand
                B5                                 Bb5     A5       D5
      and the first to do time, the first of the gang to die - oh my 
                                 
CHORUS (x2)

            You have never been in love

             until you've seen sunlight thrown

        over smashed human bone

BRIDGE

        We are the Pretty Petty Thieves

       and you're standing on our streets

CHORUS
              D5              G5   
      where Hector was the first of the gang with a gun in his hand
                 B5                               Bb5      A5         D5
        and the first to do time the first of the gang to die such a silly boy
                        G5         
      Hector was the first of the gang with a gun in his hand
               B5                          Bb5        A5                D5
        and a bullet in his gullet and the first Lost Lad to go under the sod

BREAK   
F5  A5  Bb5  C5   Bb5
CHORUS
                               G5           
      And he stole from the rich and the poor and the not-very-rich
                B5                               A5
      and the very poor and he stole all hearts away
                           D5                     G5
        Stole all hearts away, stole all hearts away ahay ahay ahay
         B5                         A5       D5
        Away-ahay stole all hearts away ... away
