Intro


Dm            Fmaj7
A pistol shot, at five o'clock,

Bo7 Chord


Bo7                 Bb
The bells of heaven ring,
A7               Dm
Tell me what you done it for,
     F                C         A7
No I won't tell you a thing.

VerseEnding


Yesterday I begged you
Before I hit the ground,
All I leave behind me
Is only what I found.

If you can abide it,
Let the hurdy-gurdy play,
Stranger ones have come by here
Before they flew away.

I will not condemn you
Nor yet would I deny,
I would ask the same of you,
                                 Am
But failing, will not die.

A7         D

                       A
Take up your china doll, (take up your china doll, Whoooo)

Ending

          G                                         D
It's only fractured; just a little nervous from the fall.

G      D

G                 D
La-la-la-la-la-la-la.
