Levi Stubbs' Tears chords and lyrics - BILLY BRAGG

Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[Am][Em][F][G]

[Verse 1]
With the [Am]money from her accident
She [F]bought herself a mo[C]bile [Em]home
So at [G]least she could get some en[F]joyment
out of being [Am]alone[G]
No one could [F]say that she was left up
on [C]the shelf
It's you and [G]me against the World kid

[Interlude 1]
she mumbled to herself
[Dm][F][C][G]
[Dm][F][C][Am]

[Chorus 1]
When the [Dm]world falls [F]apart
[C]some [G]things stay [Am]in pl[G]ace
[F]Levi Stubbs' [G]tears run down [Am]his [E]face

[Verse 2]
She ran a[Am]way from [F]home
in her mother's [C]best [Em]coat
She was [G]married before she was [F]even
entitled [Am]to vo[G]te
And her [F]husband was one of [C]those blokes
The sort that [G]only laughs at his [Am]own jokes
The sort a [F]war takes [C]away
And when there [G]wasn't a war he left anyway

[Interlude 2]
[Dm][F][C][G]
[Dm][F][C][Am]

[Chorus 2]
When the [Dm]world falls [F]apart
[C]some [G]things stay [Am]in pl[G]ace
[F]Levi Stubbs' [G]tears run down [Am]his [Em]face

[Bridge 1]
[F]Norman [C]Whitfield [Em]and Barrett S[G]trong
Are [F]here to [C]make right [Em]every- thing
[G]that's wrong
[F]Holland and [C]Holland and Lamont [Em]Dozier [F]too
Are [G]here to make it all okay with you

[Verse 3]
And [Am]one dark night he [F]came home
from [C]the [Em]sea
And put a [G]hole in her body
[F]where no hole sho[Am]uld be[G]
It hurt her [F]more to see him
walking out [C]the door
And though they [G]stitched her back together
they left her heart in pieces on [Am]the f[G]loor

[Chorus 3]
When the [F]world falls apart
[G]some things stay [Am]in pl[G]ace
She takes [F]off the Four Tops tape
[G]and puts it back in its[Am] case[G]
When the [F]world falls apart
[G]some things stay [Am]in pl[G]ace
[F]Levi Stubbs' [G]tears[Am][G]

[Outro 1]
[F][G][Am][G]
[Repeat and fade]
