 .. Past the flat-footed charterhouse boys 
|F                       |C             C/D C/E C | 
 ... From towns where the mothers can't stand

 ... She knows that time takes all of us 
|F                                |C      C/D C/E C | F | 
 .. Through every long, hot, heavy summer 
 
 
   |Am                G                 |F 
And all of them, they talk of national security 
    |Am            G               |F 
Over garden fences made to buff the bastard breeze 
  |C       |F        | C | 
Of chance encounters

 .. Past the Tuesday morning supermarket crowd 
|F                  |C                 C/D C/E C 
 ... She knows we'll all sleep through the days 
       |F                    |C       C/D C/E C | 
 And be two-step drip fed our laughter

 ... She's a light in the young boy's eyes 
|F                                |C      C/D C/E C | F | 
 .. Through every long, hot, heavy summer 
 
 
   |Am                G                 |F 
And all of them, they talk of national security 
    |Am            G               |F 
Over garden fences made to buff the bastard breeze 
     |Am           G                  |F 
Yeah, all of them, shufflin' down that lonely street 
   |C         C/D C/E C | 
One last gasp 
|F                            |C     C/D C/E C | F | 
 .. Against a long, hot, heavy summer
