Verse:
Em
Staggering home,
D
the headlights throw a shadow up and upon
C
friends and loved-ones that have done no wrong,
Em
but no longer mean anything to me
Em
Oh, am I mumbling on
D
into a crystal glass that echoes a song?
C
the entisement invites you along
Em
A path of exterior colour
Bridge:
G
But come the morning, shivering and contorting
A
to border on the brink, for just another sink
C G
Oh, take me down, for one more round
G
Oh, involve me in libation, stick a rock in my foundation
A
I pick all my relations, put me on probation
C G
I'll take you down for one last round
Chorus:
A G
Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost, given her my utmost
F#
spilling out my deepest feelings
A G
Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost, given her my utmost
F#
spilling out my deepest feelings
F A F A
now all I want to do, is snuggle up to you
F G A
a night-cap in the early morning dew
Verse:
Em
Look! what have I become?
D
distancing myself so far and from
C
but gazing out, I waved the night boat on
Em
for now its heaven in deepest Tottenham
Em
oh, what have I done to deserve this fate?
D
It's all going wrong
C
even the cab fare has been and gone
Em
now I'm lagging in deepest Tottenham
