(Difford/Tilbrook)
Piccadilly (Difford/Tilbrook)
[Intro]
A   D8x
[Verse]
AShe's not a Dpicture aEbove somebody's Afire
DShe sits in a tBmowel with a pGurple hair dCryer,
SFhe waits to get Eeven with me
She Ahooks up her Dcupcakes and Eputs on her Ajumper
DExplains that she'll Bmbe late to a Gworrying Cmother,
FShe meets me in EPiccadilly
[Verse]
A Cbegging folk Fsinger stands Ctall by the Fentrance
His Csong relays Fworlds of Cmost good Fintentions,
  D        G            D          G       D G | D G
A five p a ten p in his hat for collection
She Atalks about Doffice she Atalks about Ddresses
She's Aseen one she Dfancies her Asmile is imDpressing,
DSo maybAe I'll Gtreat Aher Gsomeday
[Verse]
We qAueue among sDtrangers and Astrange converDsation
ALove's on the Dlips of Aall forms of enDgagements,
DAll queAuing to Gsee toAnight's Gplay
A Cman behind Fme talks Cto his young Flady
He's Chappy that Fshe is exCpecting his Fbaby,
    D             G           D         G                D G | D G
His wife won't be pleased but she's not been round lately
[Verse]
AThe girl was so Ddreadful we Eleft in a Ahurry
DEscaped in the Bmrain for an GIndian Ccurry,
FAt the candle lit ETaj Mahal
My Alips to a Dnapkin I Ecalled for a Ataxi
The Dinvite of Bmeyes made it Gtense but reClaxed me,
FMy mind took a Edevious stroll
[Verse]
CThe cab took us Fhome through a Cnight I'd not Fnoticed
CThe neon club lFights of adult Cfilms and Trini FLopez,
D      G               D         G           D G | D G
My arm around love but my acting was hopeless
We cArept like two Dthieves from the Akettle to the Dfire
We Akissed to the Dsound of the Asilence that we'd Dhired,
DNow capAtured, your Glove in Amy Garms
[Verse]
A Adoor open'd Dslightly a Avoice spoke in Dworry
AMum went to Dbed without Awind of the Dcurry,
DOur secAret lGove made it'As adGvance
[Verse]
CLike Adam and FEve we took Cbite on the Fapple
CLoose change in my Fpocket it Cstarted to Frattle,
[Chorus]
DHeart like a Ggun was just Dhalf of Gthe battle
(DHeart like a Ggun was just Dhalf of Gthe battle)
Like DAdam and GEve we took Dbite on the Gapple
(DHeart like a Ggun was just Dhalf of Gthe battle)
DLoose change in my Gpocket it Dstarted to Grattle,
(DHeart like a Ggun was just Dhalf of Gthe battle)
DHeart like a Ggun was just Dhalf of Gthe battle
(DHeart like a Ggun was just Dhalf of Gthe battle)
Like DAdam and GEve we took Dbite on the Gapple
(DHeart like a Ggun was just Dhalf of Gthe battle)
DLoose change in my Gpocket it Dstarted to Grattle,
(DHeart like a Ggun was just Dhalf of Gthe battle)
DHeart like a Ggun was just Dhalf of Gthe battle
DHeart like a Ggun was just Dhalf of Gthe battle
[Outro]
