                             I   was   born  on a close    street     down  a  hill

       The trees that lined the street could sense the winter   change they felt the
     Sound…                           There  was  no sound and I’m freezing in  the

        Cause  everyone  freezes    in  the       sun

Verse 2:

Basically, the same structure of the first verse, but the order of the chords is 
flipped. Each line below = 1 bar

   Em            Em7         
        I kicked around with

   C                    B/C             
   Harry who lived near Salisbury Plain

   F
     He worked on the cathedral there 

   C              B/C
   every now and again he worked with 

   G             D
   stone,        carved with stone 

   Em                     Em7
     Odd jobs on the telephone 

   F                                
    One sunny day he was sent to the 

   C         B/C
   Houses of Parliament

   Em                 Em7  
     chippin' away at gargoyles 

   C         B/C
   Under the blistering sun 

   F                                   
   He carved out "Maggie Sucks" on the 

   C              B/C
   backs of every one

   G               D
   And so in five-hundred years

   Em                       Em7 
   There's gonna be some history here 

   F                            C
   After it all subsides in the sun 

Chorus:

Play the riff on the C chord from the end of the first verse 4X, and over the last 
two times through, sing:

   And it's fallin' away 

Verse: 

This one is the same chord changes from the first verse.

   G            D 
    Another day, another loon

   Em                 Em7 
    A new pied piper calls the 

   F
   Tune so blow it up, watch it explode 

   C             B/C
   Noah's ark on overload

   Em                  Em7
   Wrestle with the results and 

   C                   B/C
   throw 'em round the ring

   F
   Everybody knows there 

   C                 B/C
   ain't no rules in wrestling

   G          D  
          The referee's a dupe 

   Em                 Em7
    Who only old ladies and children be-

   F        
   -lieve, 

   C           B/C
   I'm getting up now to leave 

   Em                            Em7
   I'll go back to that street someday

   C                       B/C
    The air's better there anyway

   F                                              C  
   Though the trees are still gonna freeze in the sun 

Chorus/Outro:

Use the Riff from the first chorus, but on F where noted.

   And it's fallin' away 

                     F
   And I don't wanna know 

                    C
   I'm glad I don't know 

       G           D   Em
What's draggin' it un  der
