  E minorEm
Our story, it starts
A augmentedA            C majorC      C majorC
Right to the end of the life of poor Jenny
    BB
Clocked out like Big Ben
   E minorEm        A augmentedA
This Screech, dear boy, where did he go
  C majorC           BB   N.C.
He melted into the black night, just like snow

Verse 1:
E minorEm               E MajorE    F#F#
Patrick, man, let me in, please open the door
     E MajorE                   G+G      F#F#
I think I fucked up, Patrick, really fucked up, man, I'm not sure
E MajorE      E minorEm         G+G      F#F#
I got crazy, left a lady laying still on the floor
     A augmentedA                  BB   N.C.
I think I killed her, Patrick, come on man, I can't knock no more

  E minorEm                 G+G        E MajorE
But Screech kept on knocking, 'till his knuckles became sore
  E minorEm                 G+G
But there's no sign of Patrick, down at number 54
  E minorEm               G+G
No refuge for our villain, for the bitter hands of faith
   E minorEm                 BB
Have something far more sinister in mind, that does await


Spoken: Woman & Screech:
N.C.
Hello?
Hi babe, you in?
Nah, nothing really, I'm just a bit tired
Listen, can I swing around yours for a few minutes?
I just really miss you, babe
What the fuck you mean you're busy?
You fucking bitch, for fucks sake

Verse 2:
E minorEm       E minorEm        G+G
Sirens sound approaching like a Banshee in the night
  E minorEm      E minorEm       G+G
The shrill cry of justice cutting like the sharpest knife
  E minorEm        E minorEm       G+G
But Screech was never one to run, not one to miss a fight
  E minorEm      E minorEm         BB
One hand upon his blade, he turned to face the blue light
E minorEm                  G+G    E minorEm
Come on then, you fucking cunts, lets fucking have you then
   E minorEm                 G+G    E minorEm
I am Screech, I'm the boss here, I'm the ender of men
        E minorEm
You think that uniform you're wearing means that you own these streets
        E minorEm                     G+G
Well these are my fucking streets and they call me fucking Screech


Bridge:
E minorEm             G+G    F#F#
Richard was an officer, who stood at 6 foot 3
    E minorEm                 G+G         F#F#
Working London on the night shift, what he didn't think he'd see
   E minorEm             G+G     F#F#
Was a boy running at him, like an animal possessed
    E6E6        N.C.
With no time to hesitate, he fired four bullets at Screech's chest


Outro:
  E minorEm       A augmentedA
Our story it ends, right at the start
   C majorC               BB
Young Screech and poor Jenny, lying one street apart
  E minorEm           A augmentedA
An officer shaken, by the boy that he claimed
  C majorC            BB
Two body's lay lifeless, and it's such a shame
         Em6Em6
It's such a shame
