Intro: G5 / A5 / G5 / A5 / B5 / A5 / D5 / D5

        G5                           A5
There's a picture by his first wife on the wall
       G5                             A5
Stripped floor-boards in the kitchen and the hall
  B5                              A5
A stain from last week's party on the stairs
    D5
But no-one knows who made it
Or how it ever got there
        G5                              A5
They were dancing with children round their necks
      G5                             A5
Talking business, books and records, art and sex
B5                          A5
All things being considered you'd call it a success
            D5
You wore your black dress
 
Oh, oh
Oh, oh...
 
Oh, he's an architect and such a lovely guy
And he'll stay with you until the day you die
And he'll give you everything you could desire
(Oh, well, almost everything -
Everything that he can buy)
So you sometimes go out in the afternoon
Spend an hour with your lover in his bedroom
Hearing old women rolling trolleys down the road
Back to Lyndhurst Grove
Lyndhurst Grove, oh
