Biography:
The Bluetones are an indie rock formed in Hounslow, England in 1994, featuring Mark Morriss (vocals, keyboards & occasional guitar), Adam Devlin (guitars), Scott Morriss (bass guitar & backing vocals), and Eds Chesters (drums)
Classed as a Britpop band, given that their appearance and initial huge success with songs such as Slight Return coincided synchronously with the Britpop explosion, their debut record Expecting To Fly appeared in 1996.

After Hours - the Bluetones
intro : |D |D |G |G |D |D |
G D
How in the world will i make it to work in the morning?
G D
i've been drinking since we clocked out and now it's 4am
G D
But they're such a generous couple alfredo and pauline,
G D F#
When they offer a late night session, you don't want to offend.
Bm
The shutters come down
(Bm)
and thats what they're for
E
we dont want to invite in the law
(E) G D
It's not often the case that we're forced to sacrifice the jukebox.
G D
But the plug always has to be pulled on the quiz machine
G D
So you imbibe all you can cos you're partaking in something forbidden
G D F#
And time after time you'll wake up face down in the latrine.
Bm
We speak in hushed tones
(Bm)
And dim down the lights
E
we're staying after hours tonight

G -(stop) D
Where am I now? Where am I now? Where am I now?
G D
I don't remember a thing, I don't remember, remember a thing
G D
Lord only knows what kind of poison i'm drinking I can't read the label
G D F#
So i'll just dance off my cares like Fred Astaire up here on the table.
Bm
The shutters come down
(Bm)
and thats what they're for

we don't want to invite in the law
Bm
we speak in hushed tones
(Bm)
and dim down the lights
