Chords

Thought I'd spend a short time putting this up, nice and easy to play, standard tuning and open chords. I think the lyrics are correct (yes he definately IS singing 'the Rodneys are queuing up') -
  Intro: A  E  D  A

Verse 1:
  A                   E                D              A
  Duch of the terrace never grew up, I hope she never will

  Broken down TV sits in the corner, pictures standing still, standing still
- Verse 2:
  A                   E                 D                        A
  Duch of the terrace knows all her heritage, says she's Henry's kid

  And it sounds like an empty house, standing still, and it's quieter than a mouse, standing still

  Says she's an heiress, sits in her terrace, says she's got time to kill, time to kill
