A fantastic song from their début album Dits from the Commuter Belt
All chords should be played as barre chords.
C#mhe spied her on the tube and she was Awearing a bright red poppy.
Eher beauty it shone through the silence as the coBmmuters, they tried not to make eye contact.
C#mhe'd never seen such a beautiful thing except for in Amovies or up on billboards.
Ehe'd never seen such a beautiful thing in all his Byears of travelling these trains.
C#mher shiny brown hair was tucked behind her ears and her Abig blue eyes pierced right 
her glasses.
the Ebook she was reading was of an interesting nature, Bhe knew that he would surely like 
date her one day.
C#ma few more stops to walthamstow.
its just a, a Bfew more stops to walthamstow.
its just a, a Efew more stops to walthamstow.
and poppy Abird, i wonder what your name is.
C#mhe was a child of a difficult nature, it was Acompulsive disorder related.
Esometimes he would do silly little things like Bturn the key in the door five times 
he went to bed.
C#min the past he got in some silly situations with Agirls from school making silly accusations.
Ehe was through all that and he knew what to do to not Bget himself into trouble.
C#mhe wanted to walk past and just ask her her name and say Ashe's so pretty, he's been 
her on the train.
Ehe was a child of a difficult nature. Bhe was a child of a difficult nature.
C#ma few more stops to walthamstow.
its just a, a Bfew more stops to wathamstow.
its just a, a Efew more stops to walthamstow.
and poppy Abird i wonder, what your name is.
C#ma few more stops to walthamstow.
its just a, a Bfew more stops to wathamstow.
its just a, a Efew more stops to walthamstow.
and poppy Abird i wonder, if I'll ever meet you.
C#mhe can't believe his luck cos he's in wathamstow, Ashe is leaving the train also.
Ehe follows her onto the platform Bup the stairs and through the barriers.
C#mhe gets a bit too close and she looks behind. Ahe takes control of himself and walks 
behind.
Eand now their out and their onto the street and they Bwalk past the top of his road.
it C#msure is dark and it sure is cold and so he Aplucks up the courage and starts to make 
approach.
she can Ehear his footsteps, her hearts in her throat, should she Bturn and start to run.
C#mno don't be dumb,
no don't be dumb,
Ano don't be dumb,
no please don't be dumb.
Ehe's so close now she waits to be grabbed, and she Bprays to god that she won't get stabbed.
C#mso close now she can feel his breath and he Agrabs her on the arm and says,
"miss is this your book that you left?E"
