Intro:



Riff 2x over Am



Verse:

Am

It was an filthy block of flats

Am

Trash was on the floor

Am

The stink was in my nose

Am

Hinges off the door



[riff]



She took me in her room

All was spick and span

Fixed me up a drink

Turned down all the lamps



[riff]



Chorus:

Am

And the rain fell down [riff]

Am

On the cold hard ground [riff]

D

And the phone kept ringing [riff]

Am

And we made sweet love [riff]



Verse:

Why do we live in this strange grey town?

They build it up let it all fall down

Feel like we’re all living in a battleground

Everybody’s jazzed



[riff]



Why do we live in this strange grey town?

The paint is peeling and the sky’s turned brown

The bankers are wankers every Thursday night

they just vomit on the ground



[riff]



Chorus:

And the rain fell down [riff]

On the cold hard ground [riff]

And the phone kept ringing [riff]

And we made sweet love [riff]

And we made sweet love [riff]

Watching the rain fall down



Verse:

She cooked me up some eggs

Then she made some tea

Kissed me on the check

Then I turned on her tv



It was usual the crap

All the usual sleaze

For 10.000 quid

Some bimbo spilled the beans



[riff]



Chorus:

And the rain fell down [riff]

On the cold hard ground [riff]

And the phone kept ringing [riff]

And we made sweet love

And we made sweet love
