[Verse 1]
Well [Am]grey clouds wrapped round
the [F]town like elastic
[G]Cars stood like toys
made of [C]Taiwanese plastic
The [Am]boy laughed at the spastic
[F]dancing around in the [G]rain
While [Am]laundrettes cleaned clothes,
high [F]heels rub toes
[G]Puddles splashed huddles of [C]bus stop crows
[Am]Dressed in their suits and their [F]boots
Well they all look the [G]same

[Pre-chorus 1]
I [F]took myself down to the [G]cafe to find all
The [C]boys lost in books and [Am]crackling [G]vinyl
And [F]carved out a poem
a[G]bove the urinal that [C]read

[Chorus 1]
Don't you [F]cry for the lost
[G]Smile for the living
[C]Get what you need
and [Am]give what you're giv[G]en
[F]Life's for the living so [G]live it

[Interlude 1]
Or you're better off dead

[Verse 2]
While the [Am]evening pulled the moon
[F]out of it's packet
[G]Stars shone like buttons
on an [C]old man's jacket
We [Am]needed a nail but we [F]tacked it
'til it fell of the wall
[G]
While [Am]pigeon's pecked trains,
[F]sparks flew like planes
The [G]rain showed the rainbows
in the [C]oil stains
And we [Am]all had new iPhone's
but [F]no one had no one to call
[G]

[Pre-chorus 2]
And [F]I stumbled down
to the [G]stomach of the town
Where the [C]widow takes memories
to [Am]slowly [G]drown
With a [F]hand to the sky
and a [G]mist in her eye, she said
[C]

[Chorus 2]
Don't you [F]cry for the lost
[G]Smile for the living
[C]Get what you need
and [Am]give what you're giv[G]en
[F]Life's for the living so [G]live it

[Interlude 2]
Or you're better off dead
[Am][Em][F][C][G]

[Verse 3]
Well I'm [Am]sick of this town,
this [F]blind man's forage
They [G]take your dreams down
and they [C]stick them in storage
You can [Am]have them back son
when you've [F]paid off
your mortgage and [G]loans
Oh [Am]hell with this place,
I'll [F]go it my own way
I'll [G]stick out my thumb
and I [C]trudge down the highway
[Am]Someday someone must be [F]going
my way [G]home

[Pre-chorus 3]
Till then [F]I'll make my bed from a [G]disused car
With a [C]mattress of leaves
and a [Am]blanket of [G]stars
And I'll [F]stitch the words into my [G]heart
with a needle and [C]thread

[Chorus 3]
Don't you [F]cry for the lost
[G]Smile for the living
[C]Get what you need
and [Am]give what you're giv[G]en
You know [F]life's for the living so [G]live it
Or you're better off dead
[C]

[Outro 1]
Don't you [F]cry for the lost
[G]Smile for the living
[C]Get what you need
and [Am]give what you're giv[G]en
[F]Life's for the living so [G]live it
Or you're better off dead
