G6
Even though you think

                    G6
to push me from the bath into the sink

                C
I can still get clean

                D7
from everything obscene

   G6
So just pass me the soap

                     G6
and I will scrub so hard to have the hope

                      C
that one day I'll be free

                       D7
and flies won't follow me

           Am
But if the bath is black

        C
and the soap is old

       Am                          C
you're turning the hot tap but the water is cold

Am
try as you might
C C Am
A                 D7
everything you've prayed for won't be done until you've paid for all your hours

    D7
and you're not coming home to

G6
All this mess undressed

                    G6
I'll put you to the test just try your best

               C
Put your apron on

                     D7
I feel it's been too long

       G6
Since you last made me laugh

                       G6
instead my hands have stuck to you with tar

                     C
and I can't get them off

                      D7
I leave prints on the clock

           Am
But if the bath is black

        C
and the soap is old

       Am                          C
you're turning the hot tap but the water is cold

Am
try as you might
C C Am
A                 D7
everything you've prayed for won't be done until you've paid for all your hours

    D7
and you're not coming home

C

                  Am
you're not coming home

C

                  Am
