Intro: G, C, Em, D x2
G C Em
Razor tea-cups and tip top craic
D G
of the crooked, Backstreet Lovers and sons
C Em
Lawless law men walk the streets of
D G
Dirty meadows of foul mouthed mothers and guns
C Em
Brick blacked-up kids mugged me the day I
D G
ran off with your sister
C Em
a young school maid, caught up in a world of
D
Backstreet Lovers.
C D Em G C
Lovers and sons, I waved her away to a friend
D G
at least that's what she said.
G C Em
Rotting teeth of a grubby gran
D G
fill the alleys of the stolen roll-ups and blunts
C Em
a skin-head dad came cap in hand
D G
with a duster and flash of switch blade fun
C Em
still on the dole, though the picket was broken
D G
a soiled age ago.
C Em
But he's caught up, caught up in a world of
D
Backstreet Lovers
C D Em G C
Lovers and sons, I waved her away to a friend
D Em
at least that's what she said.
C G
tangled in the roots and tangled in the weeds
D Em
of a concrete jungle came that girl from Leeds
C
in torn dress and tights,
G
she ain't no slag.
D C
i won her over with a '40 bag.
D G C C
I waved her away to a friend
