Intro:
Riff 2x over A minorAm
Verse:
A minorAm
It was an filthy block of flats
A minorAm
Trash was on the floor
A minorAm
The stink was in my nose
A minorAm
Hinges off the door
{riff}
She took me in her room
All was spick and span
Fixed me up a drink
Turned down all the lamps
{riff}
Chorus:
A minorAm
And the rain fell down {riff}
A minorAm
On the cold hard ground {riff}
D MajorD
And the phone kept ringing {riff}
A minorAm
And we made sweet love {riff}
Verse:
Why do we live in this strange grey town?
They build it up let it all fall down
Feel like we?re all living in a battleground
Everybody?s jazzed
{riff}
Why do we live in this strange grey town?
The paint is peeling and the sky?s turned brown
The bankers are wankers every Thursday night
they just vomit on the ground
{riff}
Chorus:
And the rain fell down {riff}
On the cold hard ground {riff}
And the phone kept ringing {riff}
And we made sweet love {riff}
And we made sweet love {riff}

Watching the rain fall down
Verse:
She cooked me up some eggs
Then she made some tea
Kissed me on the check
Then I turned on her tv
It was usual the crap
All the usual sleaze
For 10.000 quid
Some bimbo spilled the beans
{riff}
Chorus:
And the rain fell down {riff}
On the cold hard ground {riff}
And the phone kept ringing {riff}
And we made sweet love
And we made sweet love
