In the absence of your smiling face
I traveled all over the place
and I have decided I?m throwing my arms around all of Paris because only stone and steel accept my love
I?m throwing my arms around all of Paris because only stone and steel accept my love.

I?m throwing my arms around Paris because nobody wants my love
Nobody wants my love
Nobody needs my love
Nobody wants my love
Yes you made yourself plain
Yes you made yourself very plain

See their sunlit dream

Someone on their deathbed said
C                       E
There are other sorrows too
      Am         F
I was driving my car

EmBm7
The last night on Maudlin Street
DEm
Goodbye house, goodbye stairs
EmBm7
I was born here and I was raised here
D6E G7,E
And I took some stick here

C, Cmaj7
Love at first sight
It may sound trite
G, G
But it's true, you know
C, Cmaj7
I could list the detail
Of everything you ever wore or said
G, G
Or how you stood the day
As we spent the 

EmBm7
last night On Maudlin Street
DEm
"Goodbye house, forever!"
EmBm7
I never stole a happy hour
D6E  G7, E 
Around here

C, CMaj7
Where the world's ugliest boy
G
Became what you see
C, Cmaj7G
Here I am - the ugliest man

Em          Bm7
Oh, the last night on Maudlin Street
D Em
Truly I do love you
Em  Bm7D6 E G7,E 
Oh, truly I do love you

C, CMaj7
When I sleep
 G
With that picture of you framed beside my bed
 C, Cmaj7
Oh, it's childish and it's silly
 G
But I think it's you in my room, by the bed
(...yes, I told you it was silly...)

EmBm7
And I know, I took strange pills
DEm
But I never meant to hurt you
EmBm7   D6E(G7,E)
Oh, truly I love you

C, CMaj7
Came home late one night
 G
Everyone had gone to bed
C,Cmaj7
But, you know, no-one stays up for you
I had sixteen stitches
 G
All around my head

EmBm7
Oh, the last bus I missed to Maudlin Street
DEm
So he drove me home in the Van
EmBm7D6E G7,E 
Complaining, "Women only like me for my mind..."

C,Camj7
Don't leave your torch behind
 G,G/F#
A power cut ahead; 1972, you know
 C, Cmaj7
And so we crept through the park
G
No, I cannot steal a pair of jeans off a clothesline
For you

Em       Bm7
But you ... without clothes
DEm
Oh, I could not keep a straight face
EmBm7
Me - without clothes ?
D6E(G7,E)
Well, a nation turns its back and gags...
E
I'm packed

C, Cmaj7
I am moving house
 G
A half-life disappears today
 C,Cmaj7
With "every hag waves me on"
 G
(secretly wishing me gone)
Well, I will be soon

DE
Ooh, I will be soon
DE
I will be soon
DE
I will be soon
DE
Will be soon, I will be soon
C, Cmaj7, G, bbb C, Cmaj7, G, 
Mmm ... I will be soon, I will be soon

EmBm7
There were bad times on Maudlin Street
DEm
They took you away in a police car
Em
Inspector - don't you know ?
    Bm7
Don't you care ?
 D6E(G7,E)
Don't you know - about Love ?

C  Cmaj7
Your gran died
And your mother died
 G
On Maudlin Street
 C, Cmaj7
In pain, and ashamed
With never time to say
 G
those special things ... oh 
  
EmBm7
I took the key from Maudlin Street
DEm
Well, it's only bricks and mortar !
EmBm7D6       E(G7,E)
Oh, oh, truly I love you

(E)
Oh, wherever you are
Wherever you are
C, Cmaj7
Wherever you are
 G
I hope you're singing now
C, Cmaj7
Oh, I do hope 
 G
I hope you're singing now

Oh ...

I had a dream, we were sipping whisky neat
        F              C                 G
Highest floor, the Bowery, and nowhere’s high enough
    Am              C                F             C
Somewhere along the lines, we stopped seeing eye to eye
         F               C           G
You were staying out all night and I had enough


      F           Am             F                    C       
No, I don't wanna know where you been or where you're goin’
      F               Am                 G
But I know I won't be home and you'll be on your own


            F                    C                G
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning?
            F                 C                 G
Who's gonna rock you when the sun won't let you sleep?
             F                C               G         E7   Am
Who's waking up to drive you home when you're drunk and all alone?
             F                    C                G
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning, it ain’t me


Am        C              G         F   
Ow-ow, ah-ah the Bowery, ow-ow, ah-ah whiskey neat

Am  C  Am       C              F           C
       I had a dream, we were back to seventeen
       F                   C            G
Summer nights and the Libertines, never growing up
Am             C          F                 C
I'll take with me the polaroids and the memories
        F              C                G
But you know I'm gonna leave behind the worst of us

School Friends

Verse 1:
G                                    Em        G        Em
There was a girl who lived in London town.
G                                 Em                   G      Em
The scenes and sounds, they would only bring her down
C                                   D
She had polkadots and rubies in her dreams,
C                   D
French fantasies on cinema screens...
        C             G/B    Am     G
And she knew from the finish to the start
C      G/B      Am   G
It was bound to fall apart
C         G/B     Am   Em
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.
Em                                D
Wouldn't it be sweet if she could die from a broken heart?

G     Em      G      Em

Verse 2: (the same chords)
There was a boy who lived inside his head.
He couldn't face the world, so he turned his back instead.
He couldn't see in front of his eyes;
His fantasies of outlaws had him hypnotised...

And he knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                        F
Wouldn't it be sweet if he could die from a broken heart?

   C              G           F
Behold his golden wings
       C              G         F
And behold his bronze bow.
                 C             G         F
Can you hear his silver arrows sing?
       C               G     
As his gaylied favours glow.

(then go back to the normal verse bit)

There was a boy and girl who fell in love:
They both were in love with the stars and sky above,
Cinderella, cigarettes and scenes from the past
Were chasing them too fast for this love to ever last...

And they knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                         F
Wouldn't it be sweet if they could die from a broken heart? 

C   G    F    C    G

Repeat F  C  G until the end. End on G.

Arrows Of Eros

Am
There's a sadness all around us
          F                         C
There are words we're too afraid to say
                                        Am
The things that I thought would last forever
    F              G
Are changing every day

          Am
There's a hunger can't be satisfied
        F                       C
And the streets are filled with rage
C                       Am
It's time to dig deep inside ourselves
F                       G
And face the life we've made

Am
It's gonna take two of us
C                           Am
Ijust can't do it all on my own
F				  C
I see the day gettin' brighter
G                    F
Hold me a little bit tighter

C                      Am      F
Out of the darkness in hand in hand
     Am               F        G
Baby together we will make our stand
C                             Am      F
Reach out and touch me we can win somehow
       Am              F                G
I know there's nothing that can stop us now
