FROM MORRISSEY'S
FIFTH SOLO STUDIO
ALBUM
"VAUXHALL AND I"
C#m E
And when you slam down the hammer
A (STRUM AND MUTE)
can you see it in your heart??
*instrumental*
C#m B A E
C#m B A E
{SOC}
C#m B A
All of the rumors keeping me grounded
E C#m
I never said, I never said
B A
That they were completely unfounded
{EOC}
C#m E
So when you slam down the hammer
A(BARRED)
can you see it in your heart??
G#
Can you delve so low??
C#m E
And when you're standing on my fingers
A
Can you see it in your heart??
C#m
And when you try to break my spirit
E
It won't work(live...Morrissey said "happen" instead of work)
A(BARRED)
Because there's nothing left to break
G#
Ahhhhhhh anymore
*Chorus*
C#m
You won't sleep
E
Until the earth that wants me
A(BARRED)
Finally has me
G#
Ohhh you've done it now
C#m
You won't rest
E
Until the the hearse that becomes me
A(BARRED)
Finally takes me
G#
Ohhh you've done it now!!
C#m
You won't smile
E
Until my loving mouth
A
Is shut good and proper
E (LET RING)
FOREVER
*instrumental*
C#m B A E
C#m B A E
*chorus*
C#M
And all those lies
B A(BARRED)///G#
Written lies, twisted lies
(you get the idea).....
Well they weren't, they weren't lies
They weren't lies
I never said, I never said
I could have mentioned your name
I could have dragged you in
Guilt by implication
By association I've always been true to you
In my my own sick way
I've always been true to you
In my own strange way
I'll always be true to you
