Capo 2nd fret (goes for the whole song)


Intro: G5 , C5 , E5 , D5 x2

G5         C5                 E5 
Razor tea-cups and tip top craic
                D5                     G5
of the crooked, Backstreet Lovers and sons
            C5                    E5
Lawless law men walk the streets of
                 D5                        G5
Dirty meadows of foul mouthed mothers and guns
                 C5                   E5
Brick blacked-up kids mugged me the day I
D5                  G5
ran off with your sister
               C5                    E5
a young school maid, caught up in a world of
           D5
Backstreet Lovers.
            C5       D5        E5        G5               C5      
Lovers and sons, I waved her away to a friend
    D5                     G5
at least that's what she said.

G5             C5            E5
Rotting teeth of a grubby gran
                       D5                   G5
fill the alleys of the stolen roll-ups and blunts
            C5               E5
a skin-head dad came cap in hand
                   D5                    G5
with a duster and flash of switch blade fun
             C5                           E5
still on the dole, though the picket was broken
  D5            G5
a soiled age ago.
                C5                   E5
But he's caught up, caught up in a world of
           D5
Backstreet Lovers
            C5       D5        E5        G5          C5      
Lovers and sons, I waved her away to a friend
    D5                   E5

                C5                      G5            
tangled in the roots and tangled in the weeds
               D5                         E5
of a concrete jungle came that girl from Leeds
                  C5
in torn dress and tights,
              G5
she ain't no slag.
           D5              C5
i won her over with a '40 bag.
   D5        G5          C5            C5
I waved her away to a friend
    D5                     G5
at least that's what she said.
