Richard Thompson – Grey Walls (Guitar)

F#m               A                       G
I took my darling down, I took my darling down

To that big grey house down the lane

F#m                 A                         G
And then the doctor said, he said "It's in her head

She's never going to be right again"

Am		      D    Am		        D
I kissed my love goodbye, she didn't blink an eye

Am		        D 				 B
They took her down the hall, she never looked back at all

Chorus:

     G         Dm
Oh behind grey walls, somewhere there's a soul

  G         Dm
Behind grey walls, she's out of control

Em7
She's crying out for help, no-one can hear

A7			  B
O Lord have pity on her, O Lord have pity on her

My darling walks the floor, my darling walks the floor She walks every minute that she can I heard my darling say, I heard my darling say That she don't know who I am Cigarette burns down her arm, said she tried to do herself harm Tied her arms in the back, trussed her up like a sack Chorus I saw my darling's face, I saw my darling's face It looked so pale in the distance She stared out from her room into the dying gloom And I saw her poor tears glisten Pills to keep her calm, more punctures than a junkie in her arm Strapped her on the bed, seventy volts through her head Chorus by: José Duarte [email protected]
