Twydales Lament Chords & Tabs
(intro F Eb F)
Bb G C
Indicate then you stupid bastard how was I supposed to know
E Bb G C E
That you intended to go left, I'm not a mind reader

You shall be cast away into the fiery pit and in the fiery pit there are

Eternal sleeping policemen.
F
I saw a young professional couple playing Poohsticks on a Cotswold bridge
I watched them walk along the banks of the Windrush eating jasmine ice cream
Before heading north to Warwick Arts Centre and Marianne Faithfull, splendid.
I picked up all the elastic bands dropped by the postman on my driveway
And took them up to the pub on a Thursday evening
As that's where he likes to go for the quiz
He believes he is needed for the music round
His friends obviously humour him
Anyway, I place myself at a nearby table
And whenever he tries to light up a cigarette
I fire it out of his mouth with one of the elastic bands
Which he finds most annoying, most annoying.
