Beautiful Game chords by Squeeze

Live Tilbrook plays this with a capo on the third and it sounds like he plays the Ab as a Maj7
leaving of the bottom finger

Fmaj7          Em                   Fmaj7 Em
We watched the game like we always did
Fmaj7         Em                 Gm    Dm
We seemed to lose more than we'd win
C              C+                 Am     A
The ref would sweat as we'd blame him
              Fmaj7
And then the fights would start
               Dm
Out where the buses park
   C                 G
I dodged a few black eyes
   Bb
Believe me
        C          Dm     Fmaj7 Em
It was good to be alive
Fmaj7      Em              Fmaj7 Em
The tribal path led to the pub
Fmaj7      Em             Gm    Dm
Where we debated how we'd won
C          C+                 Am     A
And I'm outside the wayward son
              Fmaj7
And then a glass is smashed
             Dm
Some fella's on his back
        C             G
And it all kicks off again
   Bb
As ever
         C                 Dm      Fmaj7
There's no one to take the blame
    Bb        C    Dm         Fmaj7
As time goes by I search with vigour
    Bb      C          Dm      Fmaj7
The days we had seemed so much bigger
     Bb  C         Dm        Fmaj7
And everyone would point the finger
    Bb             Am
So we would do the same
      Bb    C                       Dm  Fmaj7 Em Fmaj7 Em
To be mesmerised by the beautiful game
Fmaj7       Em                     Fmaj7 Em
My old man passed on the flame of loss
Fmaj7       Em                   Gm    Dm
The team we loved just gathered moss
C              C+                 Am     A
On a rolling stone you wouldn't toss
          Fmaj7
But if we win or lose
               Dm
We're in each other's shoes
     C              G
With blood upon our shirts
   Bb
Believe me
    C             Dm     Fmaj7
You know how that hurts
    Bb        C    Dm         Fmaj7
As time goes by I search with vigour
    Bb      C          Dm      Fmaj7
The days we had seemed so much bigger
     Bb  C         Dm        Fmaj7
And everyone would point the finger
    Bb             Am
So we would do the same
      Bb    C                       G  C  G  C   Fmaj7 Em
To be mesmerised by the beautiful game
