G                     D
She comes from the hardest town
Em                    Bm      C
They build you up to let you down and
D                    Em             G       Bm      D
Leave you with an armour hard as steel

G                     D
It's not the chaos or the heat
Em              Bm         C
Or the noises from the street   but
D
Something inside she has to beat that

Em             Bm         Em            Bm
Shoots out a nerve causes judgements to swerve
C                                     G    D

She'll attempt to resist
C             G             D

All the steps we seem to take
Em                      Bm     C        D
Are sometimes stairways to escape from
Em                G     Bm    D
all the things that were supposed to come

G                           D
And there's a threat when letting go
Em                       Bm         C
Showing things she'll never show     but
D
I won't give in now I know

Em      Bm             Em       Bm
As I ask  friend how on earth can I send
C                  G     D
A little bit of me to her

Em            Bm
She'll attempt to resist

And pretend I don't  exist when I do

C         D
But if ever her defence drop
C              D
Love takes a shot pop
C           D

at night when we are here together
C#               D                A          D
