Em G Bm A

I'll make supper for myself

I'll watch the clock upon the shelf

Bm A

I'll clean this broken house you denied

Is your time much better spent

By giving such a small percent

Bm A

To every pleasantry that I've tried?

What's this ugly thing I see?

When was this cold and un-comely

Bm A

Animosity begotten?

Fuckin' with the lights left on

'Til every ounce of strength was gone

Bm A

Is there something you've forgotten?

G5 A5 B5 G5

When a new sun warms the bedroom wall

A5 B5 G5

I'll be halfway to Rich-mond

A5 B5 G5

I'm the fool just to care at all

A5 B5

You're the free vagabond

G5 A5

Em G Bm A

London Bridge is falling down

And Simon says to turn around

Bm A

These games ain't too fun when you're grown

Where'd you go and why'd you leave?

I'll close my eyes and count to three

Bm A

Then hurry up and wait by the phone

G5 A5 B5 G5

But when the new sun warms the bedroom wall

A5 B5 G5

I'll be halfway to Rich-mond

A5 B5 G5

I'm the fool just to care at all

A5 B5

You're the free vagabond
