Hello Lerwick . . .

Another night at the Wheel Bar,
C C7 G D C Cadd9
'cause there is nothing else to do. (Whoa, whoa)
G D
The same people, the same drinks

and the same music,
C7
the same quicksand.
G D C
I think this harbour town is waist

deep and sinking fast.
G D C
Hello Lerwick, You've found
C7 G D C Cadd9
an enemy in me. (Whoa, whoa)
G D C C7 G
Hello Lerwick, hello Lerwick
D C Cadd9
G D C
Its friday night in posers,
C7 G D C C7
and im downing stewarts rum. (Whoa, whoa)
G D
From tonights skank, to the clydesdale bank,
C C7 G
then the taxi rank, and just home to walls,
D
I wish this eastside town would
C Cadd9
sink into the voe.
