1. The man at the back of the
queue was sent
Am Dm
to feel the smack of firm
government,
C Dm
linger by the flyposter, for a fight,
Am Dm
it's the same story every
night.
C Bb
I've been hurt and we've been
had,
Dm C Bb
you leave home, and you don't
go back.
Bb C
Someone told me Monday, someone told me Saturday,
Am Dm C
wait until tomorrow and there's still no way.
Bb C
Read it in a book or write it in a letter,
Am Dm C
Bb
wake up in the morning and there's still no guarantee.

2. Only last night I found myself lost
Am Dm
by the station called King's
Cross.
C Bb
dead and wounded on either
side,
Am Dm
you know it's only a matter of
time.
C Bb
I've been good and I've been
bad,
Dm C Bb
I've been guilty of hanging
around.
Bb C
Someone told me Monday, someone told me Saturday,
Am
Dm C
wait until tomorrow and there's still no way.
Bb C
Read it in a book or write it in a letter,

wake up in the morning and there's still no guarantee.

3. So I went looking out today
Bm - Em
for the one who got away,
D C
murder walking round the block,
Bm - Em
ending up in
King's Cross.
D C
Good luck, bad luck waiting in
a line,
Em
D
C
it takes more than the matter
of time.

Someone told me Monday, someone told me Saturday,
