D5
Build a bridge or maybe two
D5
Together held with footsteps she outgrew
                 E5     G5               D5
But now she sits alone, everyone's long gone
D5
She dances in a photograph
D5
When it was good to joke and have a laugh
             E5         G5       D5
But that was yesterday, if only today
        G5
Now the walls are crawling faces
           D5
that still breathe
    G5                                    A5
But before she nods her head what's left but sleep

(Chorus 1)


            D5
She hears a chorus of factory girls
G5
Singin' in the streets
C5
Drinkin' their coca-colas
      A5
After washing your filthy sheets


                 D5
Chasin' down the avenue
D5
After a childhood that she never knew
           E5
Choking on woodbine
G5                        D5
Cigarettes just kill the time
        G5
Now the walls are crawling faces
           D5
that still breathe
    G5                                    A5
But before she nods her head what's left but sleep

(Chorus 2)
            D5
She hears a chorus of factory girls
G5
Singin' aoin and all
C5
Empty are their pockets
          A5
But their voices are filled with song


         D5
Come day go day
                        A5
Wish in my heart it was Sunday
                    G5       A5
Drinking buttermilk all the week
                 D5
And whiskey on a Sunday (traditional)


G5
Now the walls are crawling faces
           D5
that still breathe
    G5                                    A5
But before she nods her head what's left but sleep

(Chorus 1)

(Chorus 2)


                       D5
Slayed Richard and his court of Kings
D5
He stole my heart and many other things
                  E5
But me I took his crown
G5                            D5
Wish he was here to steal it now
