Chords

There are multi tracks of vocals overlapping in the end of the song. I have put some brackets in the lyrics where you have to jump to the next text line. The Dsus4 may be interchanged with a G/D: x-x-0-4-3-3 [Intro] D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D D [Verse 1]
D
I don't care whether you hear this

        Dsus4          D               G
I don't care if I'm alone here singing songs to myself

                     D             Dsus4
There's nobody else around, around

D                                     Dsus4
Meet you up at the Indian part of the town

                D                G
The town's shut down, the people left with their bags

                             D             Dsus4
Their kids so there's not a sound a sound
[Verse 2]
  D
But I must get from there to here

           Dsus4                    D                 G
There's a small voice crying on the other side of the river from here

                 D             Dsus4
It's too late to phone her now

  D
What went wrong, your grades were good

          Dsus4            D            G
It would take a left wing Robin Hood to pay for school

                            D             Dsus4
Your dad's a boozer and you keep him alive
[Instrumental] Bm G E A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 [Verse 3]
  D
Just a minute close your eyes

      Dsus4              D              G
If we settle for this compromise I will stay with you

                   D            Dsus4
The river looks so good tonight

D
I don't know what's with your friend

    Dsus4           D             G
She met a boy and at the summer's end

                             D             Dsus4
She said she'd had enough of playing games
[Verse 4]
D
I don't care cause I'm by myself

        Dsus4            D
All the dancers left but I can't dance

   G                                   D            Dsus4
So I will stay and clean the mess they left behind

D                                     Dsus4
But I dream as I set to scrub all the floors, the walls

    D             G                           D             Dsus4
I'm thinking of a song or two, a boy a girl a rendezvous
[Instrumental] Bm G E A Bm G E A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 [Bridge]
D
Are you coming or are you not?

         Dsus4              D
There is nothing that would sort you out

        G
There's nothing I could say or do

       D                    Dsus4             D
You're going to crash, I'll set the bails in (front of you)

D
Are you coming or are you not?

         Dsus4              D
There is nothing that would sort you out

   G
An interesting way of life

D                 Dsus4       D
Deny yourself the benefits of (being alive)
[Verse 5]
D                                         Dsus4
You slept better in a sleeping train in a shed in a station

       D                   G
With a torch and a Woman's Realm to keep you warm

            D            Dsus4
To keep you company

D                                         Dsus4
You slept better in a sleeping train in a shed in a station

       D                   G
With a torch and a Woman's Realm

                    D            Dsus4
To keep you company tonight
[Outro] Bm G E A Bm G E A Bm G E A Bm G E A Bm
