D6
Even though you think

                    D6
to push me from the bath into the sink

                G
I can still get clean

                E7
from everything obscene

   D6
So just pass me the soap

                     D6
and I will scrub so hard to have the hope

                      G
that one day I'll be free

                       E7
and flies won't follow me

           Bm
But if the bath is black

        G
and the soap is old

       Bm                          G
you're turning the hot tap but the water is cold

Bm
try as you might
G G Em
E                 A7
everything you've prayed for won't be done until you've paid for all your hours

    A7
and you're not coming home to

D6
All this mess undressed

                    D6
I'll put you to the test just try your best

               G
Put your apron on

                     E7
I feel it's been too long

       D6
Since you last made me laugh

                       D6
instead my hands have stuck to you with tar

                     G
and I can't get them off

                      E7
I leave prints on the clock

           Bm
But if the bath is black

        G
and the soap is old

       Bm                          G
you're turning the hot tap but the water is cold

Bm
try as you might
G G Em
E                 A7
everything you've prayed for won't be done until you've paid for all your hours

    A7
and you're not coming home

G
tonight

                  Em
you're not coming home

G
tonight

                  Em
