verse:1
G C G
I was a happy boy living on the dole
G C D
When you came and ruined it all on me
G C G
I'd sit for hours all day in my good friend's home
G C D
Smoking cigarettes and drinking tea
G C G
We were so happy there, talk our lives away
G C D
Talking 'bout our hopes and all our dreams
G C G
Till you came round one day with your great big plan
G C D
And you tried to ruin me with your schemes
chorus:
G C G D
And your Mammy and your Daddy well they call you Mary
G C
But they shoulda called you Deathwatch
C G
Shoulda called you Deathwatch
G D G
Cause you nearly were the death of me

Lads told me you were no good I turned them away
G C D
Said that you just wanted things from me
G C G
Then you made me get a job and I understood
G C D
I was in too deep I'd not be free
G C G
And then I gave up drink cos you asked me too
G C D
I was shaving each day before long
G C G
Then you said we had to save for a mortgage soon
G C D
That was when the light began to dawn
verse:3
G C G
Didn't even say goodbye just walked away
G C D
From the burderns you had put on me
G C G
Don't know why I even tried to be something I'm not

All I know's I wanted to be free
G C G
Now I'm a happy boy living on the dole
G C D
Smoking cigarettes and drinking tea
G C G
I'll find some other girl to have me as I am

You can take your twisted love to sea
