[Verse 1]
D Bm Gm Gm/Bb F#m/A He spends his time, or maybe half of his time, or part of the time wandering 'round D/A Bm Em The creeks and cobble stones of hackney lanes D Bm Gm Bbdim7 with a tear in his eye, as the children walk by, he's thinking of a song D/A Bm Em F# F#dim Then stops, to paint a picture of a frown, walking around
[Riff]
Em Cm/Eb Gm F#m F x2
And the fast guitar that's right after that part goes like this:

[Verse 2]
D Bm Gm Gm/Bb F#m/A Dan Treacy's smile, leaves you trying to decide who's the victim, what's the crime? D/A Bm Em No rest for the mind, that's seen it all before D Bm Gm Bbdim7 And I don't know where he lives, but he's a myth of a man, and Texas Bob the cameraman D/A Bm Em F# F#dim Is off to fix his suit before the show, yeah but where did he go?
[Riff]
Em Cm/Eb Gm F#m F x2
[Bridge 1]
C#m A To know when your time's up B E G#m Bm You flip the glass and watch the hours quickening A Am Oh oh oh oh C#m A In the back of the station B E G#m Bm Fluorescent lights about to quit their flickering A F# Well he speaks his mind, he says "what is crime?" F#dim Dan Treacy's eyes
[Verse 3]
D Bm Gm In the middle of the park, when the underground is dark Gm/Bb F#m/A He's a poet he's a lark D Bm Em He starts thinking about a place that no one knows D Bm Gm And when the creeks run dry, he stays frozen in time Bbdim7 Strange lights in the sky D/A Bm Em Start blinking, I can see the car outside but he's listening G#m Bm Oh oh oh oh, he's listening, oh oh oh, he's listening, ah ah ah A Am And he's making up his mind
[Bridge 2]
C#m A B E G#m Bm A Am He made his mind up, to get things done and overcome C#m A B E G#m Bm A Am He made his mind up, yeah he's gonna let it go C#m A B E G#m Bm A Am He made his mind up, in the park and at the station C#m A B E G#m Bm A Am He made his mind up, yeah, he's gonna get it done C#m A B E G#m Bm A Am He made his mind up, ooh yeah he's gonna get it done C#m A B E G#m Bm He made his mind up
[Outro]
A B Yeah, he's gonna let it go, oh oh F#m B No matter the time, oh oh F#m B When the creeps run by, oh no F#m B He's making his mind up, oh oh oh oh F#m B Yeah he's gonna get it done whoa oh F#m B Yeah, when the creeks run dry whoa oh F#m B Yeah, he's gonna listen to his soul F#m F#dim7 Yeah, when the creeps walk by and say, "come here boy, look me in the eye" E Bow to the heart, back to the beat of Dan Treacy
