Primrose Hill (Capo 2)
Verse:
C majorC
Living on the side of Primrose Hill
FF
Drinking cans of Tennants just can't seem to get my fill
G+G
Got a beat up guitar and a dirty old sleeping bag
FF
And this mangy dog whose tail don't wag
C majorC
Sun's been shining down on my hillside bed
FF
That's not the only reason my face is so red
G+G
This nasty cut on my nose is not from no fight
FF
I just fell down yesterday or maybe it was last night
C majorC
I used to sing and play down in the underground
FF
But a few years back they started cracking down
G+G
Now I'm living on the side of Primrose Hill
FF
I'm no tourist attraction but I give them a thrill
interlude:
C majorC
Yeah I see you riding by on your flash bicycle
FF
Yeah they can do you for that on Primrose Hill
G+G
A augmentedA pretty young mother goes by she's pushing her pram
FF
Her little baby leans out just to see what I am
C majorC
From the top of the hill there's a hell of a view
FF
Houses of Parliament and London Zoo
G+G
Those politicians all chatter they trumpet and roar
FF
That must be what those hyenas all are laughing for
C majorC
When you come up to London it sure is something to see
FF
It's somewhere to go but it's no place to be
G+G
And there's two things keeping me from going 'round the bend
FF
I got my music and this dog for a friend
interlude:
C majorC
'Cause life gets slippery when you're living on the side
FF
Yeah I know I should quit drinking but I haven't even tried
G+G
My mutt's licking my fingers and I'm wetting my lips
FF
I got a can of extra strong and a bag of chicken and chips
C majorC
If I had a little money I'd get a few things
FF
Like a bottle of vodka and a pack of new guitar strings
G+G
I guess I could die here on the side of this hill
FF
I'm no tourist attraction but I'd give them a chill
C majorC
And I'm living on the side Of Primrose Hill
FF
Drinking cans of Tennants Just can't seem to get my fill
G+G
Got a beat up guitar And dirty old sleeping bag
FF
This mangy dog Whose tail won't wag
