The first verse lyrics start with part 3 which is just repeated through the verse.

Sweet brother malcolm,
he's under house arrest,
Its the talk of the town,
who'd of thought it of him?
Sweet cousin mary,
No blood in her veins,
She had so much,
Now nothing remains.  (Start to strum a D chord)


         G         Em      Esus
When it all comes crashing down,
         G         Em      Esus
And the press move in to town,
G          Em    Esus   G         Em      
 (Strum last Esus once)
Bring all floral words wrapped in sellophane.


Intro 1(once), Intro 2(once) then play Intro 3 throughout verse 2

Sweet little tony,
Where'd it all go wrong ?
He hit the wall,
Singing his favourite song   (start to strum a D chord)


         G         Em      Esus
When it all comes crashing down,
         G         Em     Esus
And the press move in to town,
G         Em     Esus  G          Em    Esus
Bring all floral words wrapped in sellophane,
G           Em              Esus
Watch them move out as fast as they came,
G                Em                 Esus
Leave the broken hearted with their pain.


Intro 1(once), Intro 2(once) then Intro 3 throughout verse 3

Sweet brother malcolm,

Its the talk of the town,

Wheres this life ?

Wheres theres life
madness will reign
Madness will reign
