Opening :  Am   Am   G  Am  
Verse :
I Amnever was a violent man
Said the Gman in the bar with his Amhead in his hands
He's trying his best to understand
The Gcause of his disAmmay
But years of gin have broken him
And left him cold where he fitted in
And it's too late now to turn around
And find another way.
Chorus :
All the Dmlaughs in the late night Flock-in
They Amfade away when Ghe gets in
The Dmgirl from fifteen Fyears ago
Has Ampacked and gone away.
Verse :
That's never how it used to be
What happened to all that energy ?
You took one too many liberties
I'm tired of being afraid
So after a fight she took flight
Hiding swollen eyes and a wounded pride
The best years of her life denied
And sold for liquid shares.
Chorus :
And the laughs in the late night lock-in
They fade away when he gets in
The girl from fifteen years ago
Has packed and gone away.
Bridge :
And the Amvictims of this Emworld
They're Cadvertised on Gposters
Just a Ambeach and a pretty Emgirl
CYou just take this Gpotion.
Verse :
It's another week 'till his cheque comes through
He's got a fiver left now to spend on food
But the doors of the bar are open
And he breaks another rule
He sits on the stool that bears his name
He's got a favorite glass now that's called the same
And he's never been kept waiting
'Cause he pays the landlord's wage.
Chorus :
And the laughs in the late night lock-in
They fade away when he gets in
The girl from fifteen years ago
Has Ampacked and gone aGway
All the laughs in the late night lock-in
They fade away when he gets in
The girl from fifteen years ago
Has packed and gone away.

And sold for liquid shares.

And he's never been kept waiting

'Cause he pays the landlord's wage.
