This song is an "alternate recording" of "Up Against The Wall" from
Eternal Nightcap. First heard years ago with the Moody Jews, it was
entitled "5 more in NSW" and was re-recorded in Memphis for the Love This
City sessions. Its release as a b-side in 2002 will bear the title "One in
a million."

Intro:

F   Eb   Bb   C(sus2)

F               Bb
To think it was going so well
        Dm                 C
we'd go out at night, come home and fight like hell
F    Bb                        Dm
Good fights about big things - you know just
C                         Bb  C
Pushing round in the dark.
F                        Bb
To think I was scared to open the box
Dm                             C
New love on the doorstep, and nothing on how it works
F             Bb
Go on have a look inside
      Dm                       C
You'll wonder what you did without it
