Song: Sitting on a Fence
Artist: The Housemartins
Album: London 0 Hull 4 (1986)
Tabbed By: Alex Blackburne
Pretty simple song, although I recommend that you listen
to the actual track to get the timings for the Chorus as
the chords are only played at certain times.
Intro
Gm / Cm / F / F (x2)
Verse
Gm Cm F
Sitting on a fence is a man who sees no sense in fighting
Gm Cm F
Sitting on a fence is a man who sees no sense at all
Gm Cm F
Sitting on a fence is a man who strokes his twenty beards
Gm Cm F
Sitting on a fence is a man who only drinks real ale
Pre-Chorus
Gm Cm F
But the real problem with this man
Gm Cm F
Is he says he can’t when he can
Eb Bb
He’d rather not get his hands dirty
Eb D
He’ll still be there when he’s thirty
Chorus
Gm Cm
I told myself to keep my mouth shut
F
But I still end up saying if and but
Gm Cm
I lied to myself right from the start
F
And I’ve just worked out that I’m falling apart
Sitting on a fence
Gm / Cm / F / F (x2)
Verse
Gm Cm F
Sitting on a fence is a man who looks up to his guardian
Gm Cm F
Sitting on a fence is a man who swings from poll to poll
Gm Cm F
Sitting on a fence is a man who sees both sides of both sides
Gm Cm F
Sitting on a fence is a man who looks down on opinion
Pre-Chorus
Gm Cm F
But the real problem with this man
Gm Cm F
Is he says he can’t when he can
Eb Bb
He’d rather not get his hands dirty
Eb D
He’ll still be there when he’s thirty
Chorus
Gm Cm
I told myself to keep my mouth shut
F
But I still end up saying if and but
Gm Cm
I lied to myself right from the start
F
And I’ve just worked out that I’m falling apart
Sitting on a fence
Drums & Bass Breakdown (x4)
Chorus
Gm Cm
I told myself to keep my mouth shut
F
But I still end up saying if and but
Gm Cm
I lied to myself right from the start
F
And I’ve just worked out that I’m falling apart
Outro
Gm Cm
I told myself, I told myself
F
And I’ve just worked out that I’m falling apart
Gm Cm
I lied to myself, I lied to myself
F
And I’ve just worked out that I’m falling apart
Gm Cm
I told myself, I told myself
F
And I’ve just worked out that I’m falling apart
