Enjoy!

[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/jam/town_called_malice_tab_ver_3.html ]
Verse:
F#m Em
Better stop dreaming of the quiet life cos it's the one we'll never know
F#m Em
And quit running for that runaway bus cos those rosey days are few
G F#m
And stop apologising for the things you never done
A riff
Time is short and life is cruel
D riff
But it's up to us to change this town called malice.
F#m Em
Rows and rows of disused milk-floats stand dying in the dairy yard
F#m Em
And a hundred lonely housewives clutch empty milk bottles to their hearts
G F#m
Hanging out their old love letters on the line to dry
A riff
It's enough to make you stop believing when tears come fast and furious
D riff
In a town called malice, yeah
F#m Em
Ba ba ba ba bada ba, ba baba bada ba (x2)
G F#m
Struggle after struggle, year after year
A riff
The atmosphere's a fine blend of ice
D riff
I'm almost stone cold dead in a town called malice
(Bridge)
F#m (once) F#m-Fm-Em (once) Em-Fm
A whole streets belief in Sunday's roast beef
F#m (once) F#m-Fm-Em (once)
Gets dashed against the Co-Op
A
To either cut down on beer or the kids new gear
D riff
It's a big decision in a town called malice
F#m Em
Ghost of a steam train echoes down my track
F#m Em
It's at the moment bound for nowhere just going round and round
G F#m
Playground kids and creaking swings, lost laughter in the breeze
A riff
I could go on for hours and I probably will but,
D riff
I'd sooner put some joy back in this town called malice.
Outro/D riff
Town called malice
Oooh yeah, town called malice etc.
