The Jam - Wasteland [1979]
Writer(s) - Paul Weller
[Intro]

[Verse 1]
G A D
Meet me on the wastelands - later this day,
G A D
We'll sit and talk and hold hands maybe,
G A D
For there's not much else to do
G D/F# G Em7 A
In this drab and colourless place.
[Verse 2]
G A D
We'll sit amongst the rubber tyres,
G A D
Amongst the discarded bric-a-brac - people have no use for,
G A D Em7 A
Amongst the smouldering embers of yesterday.
[Bridge 1]
F# G A
And when or if the sun shines,
G F#m
Lighting our once beautiful features,
C# D
We'll smile, but only for seconds,
G A
For to be caught smiling's to acknowledge life,
G F#m
A brave but useless show of compassion,
C# D Em7 A
And that is forbidden in this drab and colourless world.

[Verse 3]
G A D
Meet me on the wastelands - the ones behind,
G A D
The old houses - the ones left standing pre-war -
G A D
The ones overshadowed by the monolith monstrosities -
G D/F# G Em7 A
Councils call homes.
[Verse 4]
G A D
And there amongst the shit - the dirty linen,
G A D
The holy Coca-Cola tins - the punctured footballs,
G A D
the ragged dolls - the rusting bicycles,
G D/F#
We'll sit and probably hold hands.
G D/F#
And watch the rain fall - watch it, watch it -
G D/F#
Tumble and fall - tumble and falling -
G D/F#
Like our lives - like our lives -
Em A
Just like our lives.
[Verse 5]
G A D
We'll talk about the old days,
G A D
When the wasteland was release, when we could play,
G A D
And think - without feeling guilty - meet me later
G D/F#
But we'll have to hold hands.
G D/F#
Tumble and fall - tumble and falling -
G D/F#
Like our lives - like our lives -
Em7 A D
Exactly like our lives.
[End]
