[Intro]
A E A E A E N.C.
[Verse 1]
B Who cares about the family silver B That glints in dusty halls B Lined with badly painted landscapes B On badly painted walls? A B Who cares for family favourites A B Dangling from the family tree? Bm F#m That Auntie Mabel loved you more E N.C. A E A E Loved you, loved you more than me
[Verse 2]
A E We're not old fools of competition A E Jacob's tales or superstition A E But siblings born in equal grace A E Seated at set-table place B A E Same old chances, toss of dice: B A E Evil eyes look twice as nice B A E Blood runs thicker, blood runs cold; B A E N.C. Seize legacy before it's sold
[Verse 3]
B Who cares if I am comfortable B In leafy rural lane B While you are tied to drudgery B Left staring at the rain A A/B That washes out your young ambition A A/B Hung out left to dry Bm F#m And wither on the washing line E N.C. Washed out, washed-out butterfly
[Harmonica Solo]
A E A E
[Verse 4]
A E We're not old fools of competition A E Jacob's tales or superstition A E But siblings born in equal grace A E Seated at set-table place B A E Same old chances, toss of dice: B A E Evil eyes look twice as nice B A E Blood runs thicker, blood runs cold; B A E N.C. Seize legacy before it's sold
