Graffiti On The Train 
Tom: Am
           Am
Oh the graffiti on the train
           Fmaj7
Oh the graffiti on the train oh no
                  G
Rolling in to her life
           Dsus2
Oh the graffiti on the train oh
Am
Stepped outside he left his lover sleeping
Rain falls he's drowning in his secret
Fmaj7
Wet streets are quiet as a church hall
Last house where children kick the football
Am
Cross roads his heart is beating faster
Getting close to asking her the question
Fmaj7
"Marry me" he wants to paint the words on
The night train he's hiding with his spray cans
G
And that is going to ride
                                    Dsus2
When the paint is done and dried oh come on
           Am
Oh the graffiti on the train
           Fmaj7
Oh the graffiti on the train
           Am
Oh the graffiti on the train
          Fmaj7
Oh she'll never be the same oh no
                  G
Rolling in to her life
           Dsus2
Oh the graffiti on the train oh
Am
Day breaks as lovely as she wakes up
Sips her cup and dusts her face in make up
Fmaj7
Black phone she hears the people whisper
Someone died themselves train has slipped up
Am
Train comes the coach she's always used to
The doors read a "Marry me I love you"
Fmaj7
Heart stops ecstatic and suspicious
She makes the call but he does'nt pick the phone up
G
The train sped down the line
                                   Dsus2
It was last train he would ride oh no
       Am
Oh graffiti on the train
       Fmaj7
Oh graffiti on the train
       Am
Oh graffiti on the train
            Fmaj7
Oh she will never be the same
                             G
Oh god rolling back into her life
       Dsus2
Oh graffiti on the train oh

Am                           C
I watched the water rise in our house
Am                           C  
the rain poured in and washed out our stuff
Dm                           Am
my father drank from beer bottles
Am
then he'd say
C              Am        C               Am
we'll walk on, walk on, what's done, is done
F           Am          Dm                      Am
walk on, my son, never let this world drag you down
Am                           C
all that we had was deep in the mud
Am                           C
our photographs and family treasures
Dm                           Am
my mother drank from beer bottles
Am
then she'd say
C              Am        C               Am
we'll walk on, walk on, what's done, is done
F           Am          Dm                      Am
walk on, my son, never let this world drag you down
Am                       C                           Am
don't let it bring you down (and let your head drop down)
Am                       C                            Am
don't let the sun go down (and let your light go out)
Am                       C          
don't let yourself fall down
Am                     Dm                            F
just pick yourself up from the street and get up on your feet
C              Am        C               Am
walk on, walk on, what's done, is done
F           Am          Dm                      Am
walk on, my son, never let this world drag you down
Dm                      Am
never let this world drag you down

few more drinks I'm off to dance 
G6                                       C 
I get the eye as I lift my glass 
G6                                    C 
 the first time in six months 
G6                                       C 
she looks again I start to shake 
G6                                       C 
my shoulders twitching I'm on my way 
G6                                       C 
glance behind me for safety's sake 
G6                                       C 
to see a clock the size of a plane 
G6                                       C (gentlely!) 
verse 2 same as verse 1 
the night is young more fish in the sea 
who's to say she wasn't looking at me 
sink my head back into my glass 
get into shape for that first dance 
I turn away look to the south 
pull my foot from out of my mouth 
to my surprise she's standing beside me 
asking if I'd like to dance 
 
same as verse 1 
I'm standing in a hall of smoke 
her tongue's in my mouth I'd like to choke 
her knight approaches us on foot 
left his sidekick drink at the brook 
he offers me a cigarette I said i'm far too young to smoke 
so he tried to entertain me told me one more crappy... 
D                    C                  D                    C 
joke in my ear except the joke wasn't clear 
D                    C                  D                     C 
set the joking aside should I run should I hide 
D                     C                   D                     C 
I've decided to stay rub it straight in his face

what he thought was the case was an easy mistake 
G6            Em                   C                D               C 
I just like to try some carrot cake and wine

D          C         D         C        D         C 
 
G6                C (gentle)
looking good not looking back 
knight of hers took her off to dance 
I get the eye as I lift my glass but not for the last time 
she looks again I start to shake 
my eyes are twitching my legs are fake 
glance behind me for safety's sake 
to see my girlfriend's tongue in the face 
of a friend who is far from a man 
should I hide should I run 
must have seen what I've done 
I decided to stay like the look on her face 
what I thought was the case was an easy mistake 
 
Chorus 
I just like to try some carrot cake and wine 
can't I try taste my carrot cake and wine 
and why should I lie 
why can't I try 
taste some 
buy my 
try some 
carrot cake and wine

September seventeen
                      A
To a girl I know it's mothers day
                 E
Her son has gone alee
                         B
And that's where he will stay
                   E
Wind on the weathervane
                  A
Tearing blue eyes sailor mean
                    E
As Falstaff sings a sorrowful refrain
D                      E
For a boy on Fiddler's Green
                 E
His tiny knotted heart
                      A
Well I guess it never worked too good 
                 E
The timber tore apart
                         B
And the water gorged the wood
                           E
You can hear her whispered prayer
                       A
For men at masts that always lean
                             E
The same wind that moves her hair
D                               E
Moves her boy through Fiddler's Green
    B                    A
Oh, nothing's changed anyway
    B                    A
Oh, nothing's changed anyway
    B       E
Anytime today
                  E
He doesn't know a soul 
                              A
And there's nowhere that he's really been
                     E
But he won't travel long alone
                    B
No not on Fiddler's Green
                         E
Balloons all filled with rain
                        A
As children's eyes turn sleepy mean
                        E
And Falstaff sings a sorrowful refrain
D                      E
For a boy on Fiddler's Green

  Caught up in the fable I watched the tower grow  
  C                   G
  Five-year plans and new deals
  C                 G
  Wrapped in golden chains

A week's too long not to ring,
                                 B1
Colours her hair and waits for him,
                                    D#m7
Not cat against dog just head over heels,
                                 E1
Sex twice a day, best time in years,
               D#m7
Oh no, why hasn't he phoned?
E1                   D#m7
She has to wait until he's on his own,
E1                     D#m7
lying and denying til nobody knows,           
     E1            D#m7            C#m7         B2            F#
I'll tell her this week is what he tells her to keep her on loan,

B1                                           D#m7
Sex drives, oral highs, cheating wives and spies,
                                             B1
Cream cakes, coffee dates, floral gifts, goodbye,
                                           D#m7
Passed away, for the day, had a change of kind,
Sex change, too mundane, for the average mind.
E1         D#m7
Oh no, she just can't see,
E1              D#m7
Where he is and where he's been,
E1                            D#m7
Looks prim and straight, like she's always been,
E1  D#m7 C#m7 B2    F#   E2           B1
All that she  saved for, went missing again.
C#m7                                     B1
She could be, she could be, she could be wrong.
C#m7                                     B1
She could be, she could be, she could be wrong.
C#m7                                     B1           
She could be, she could be, she could be wrong.
C#m7                                         B1
It looks like, it looks like, the word's got around.
B1                       D#m7
They found a body in the lake,
                            B1
Maybe, it wasn't really his name,
                                    D#m7
Same colour, same weight, same size feet,
It's the not knowing that kills you.
E1           D#m7          
Oh no, the clocks stop slow,
E1                D#m7
Every time, you're on your own,
E1                         D#m7
You hide from the spies so nobody knows,
E1                  D#m7       C#m7       B2         F#
Scratch through the pages of a lazy day's news for a clue.
E2                B1
Still looking for you.
At the end he plays a B chord repeatedly under the riff then:
B1   D#m7  E1     B1

Remember me my love 
  Am                    F
I'm the one ya dreaming of 
I'm going for a ride 
I'll keep you warm inside 
Gonna roll up the sidewalk 
Gonna tear up the ground 
Coming round to meet you 
The long way round 
Sooner or later 
I'll get me off this track 
Gotta do what it is that I do 
Then I'm coming back 
Got the sun in my face 
Sleeping rough off the road 
I'll tell you all about it 
When I get home 
Gonna roll up the sidewalk 
Gonna tear up the ground 
Coming round to meet you 
The long way round

Intro:   Em D Cmaj7 (x2)
Em   D            Cmaj7
You line 'em up, forgot your shoes
                        Em          D             Cmaj7
Your own name's on your wall, and you should have known
You fly around in planes that bring you down
To meet me, who loves you, let me crash into the ground
          D                        Cmaj7
Are you surrounded, you don't even know me
                    D
Would you like to stone me?

Mr. Writer...

Why don't you tell it like it is

Why don't you tell it like it really is
                   C      Cmaj7
Before you go on home             
Em D Cmaj7 (x2)
I used to treat you right, give you my time
But when I turn my back on you, then you do what you do
You've just enough on my own view, education to perform
I'd like to shoot you on
And when you go home with you on your own
What do you really do?
Mr. Writer...
Why don't you tell it like it is
Why don't you tell it like it really is
Before you go on home
Em D Cmaj7 (x2)
And when you go home with you on your own
What do you even know?
