Subbuteo Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

EHello, my chum

It's me and I'm banging on your door C♯m

It's been fBar too long

Since we set the leaves alight down on the flAoor

I've rEeturned for a while

To the concrete that once claimed my knees C♯m

And the stBones my hands owned

As I sent them toward windows and trAees

Middle 8

Towering tF♯mrees

Towering trBees B7 E

Verse

2

EThere are bangers in the wheely bins

Lazer pens shone through the glass C♯m

And BBB after BB fired

From behind the wall beyond the grAass

And though boEots met my face

And knuckles cracked me black as coal C♯m

I care nBot for the mindless

Who poked fear at my sorry soul A

Middle 8

My sF♯moul

My soBul B7

Verse 3

And I miss the rEain on the roof

Pitstop paths and whistling streamsC♯m

I miss the ColdBstream chips

The red subbuteo team painted grAeen

EBuilt on back fields,

It seemed a thorn in my child C♯mside

Instead became a grBit-soaked playground

Where the propers and the poor colAlide

Bridge

Oh, it miEght sound dull

But dull's sometimes all we have C♯m

Yeah, it miBght sound dull

But dull's all we ever haAve

Refrain

Sometimes EI talk with the meter

Of a bingo caller's east-end drawl C♯m

Who cares; we're aBll just trying to float

While everythBing seems set to fAall

Middle 8

So F♯mhard

SBo hard B7

Ending is based around the main chords. To achieve end drum effect play 'C#m' once
