Biography:
The Adicts are an English Punk rock band from Ipswich, Suffolk. They began life as the Afterbirth & The Pinz, in their hometown of Ipswich in late 1975. Popular in the 1980s, they were often in the indie charts at that time.
They soon changed their name to The Adicts and became known for their distinctive Clockwork Orange 'Droog' image, which, along with their urgent, uptempo music and light-hearted lyrics, helped set them very much apart from the rest of the genre.

[Intro]
C#m
[Verse 1]
A
This town is his cause burying my neck
C#m
This air it takes off, without rushing, without haste
The streets are in distress,
A
The sun suffocates behind darkened skies
The grass is growing under my feet
C#m
I'm thinking it wont be long before you get the line
The line-up seems endless,
A
Underneath the salvation sign
We are the dead ones, we are the lost cause
C#m
We are the people who will not blame ourselves from this cause
[Chorus]
A
The city, the city is haunted,
F#m A
By ghosts from broken homes
B C#m A
Because this city, this city is haunted
F#m A B C#m
There's no hope left for these souls
[Verse 2]
A
Every step I take,
I leave a small piece of myself behind
C#m
Soon there will be nothing left
The cracks in the pavement,
A
Match the cracks in their weathered skin,
The skies a brick wall, the clouds a juggernaut
C#m
Each day they get a bit closer; between them I am caught
A
I stare in amazement, I can't believe this is where I live
Every breath I take, I feel my lungs seal
C#m
This breeze feels more like shards of glass I'm more scars than skin
[Chours]
A
The city, the city is haunted,
F#m A
By ghosts from broken homes
B C#m A
Because this city, this city is haunted
F#m A B
There's no hope left for these souls
[Bridge]
C#m
Our steps seal fate
Our steps seal fate
(this is our celebration, come join the lost souls)
(this is our celebration, come join the lost souls)
The city, the city is haunted
Oh! Walk with us, oh!
Down! Walk with us!
[Chorus]
C#m A
The city, the city is haunted,
F#m A
By ghosts from broken homes
B C#m A
Because this city, this city is haunted
F#m A B C#m
There's no hope left for these souls
