Terry Hall - Ballad of the landlord
[Intro]
Am Am
[Verse 1]
Am Dm
On the day you arrived the bedroom curtains were drawn
G C
all was still the way you left it same number on the door
Am Dm
?asy come, easy go what a way to treat your soul
G C Am
though i confess where once hearts rested, now there's nothing but a hole.
Am Dm
So the prodigal son returns i guess the pleasure's not enough
G Dm C Am
did he promise you the earth a world of beauty and the bluff.
Am Dm
I tried to tend the garden until the flowers fell to weed
G C Am
so now the place lies in a ruin the way you lied and ruined me
[Chorus]
Am Dm
Do i have the answer if I did I wouldn't know
G C
so take it if you want it if you don't then let me go.
[Verse 2]
Am Dm
Fake leopard skin fur says it all you never could be real
G C
how i long to taste the secrets from your lands of phoney tears
Am Dm
you tried to be a movement but there was no one on your side
G C
did you come back here to haunt me or to take me for a ride.
[Chorus]
Am Dm
Do I have the answer if I did I wouldn't know
G C
so take it if you want it if you don't then let me go.
[Bridge]
F E
But if you don’t just let me know
F E E E
If you don’t take yourself away, i've been here once before
E E E
and i can't have you hurting me anymore
[Chorus]
Am Dm
Do I have the answer if I did I wouldn't know
G C
so take it if you want it if you don't then let me go.
Am
But don’t make me the one
Dm
That makes you feel like you should go
G C
Just take it if you want it, if you don't then let it go.
F G Am
if you don't just let me know I can’t take anymore.
