Fish 'n' Chip Paper Tom: E

And the man of the moment is the lifer at large
Chorus:
A F#m
If you've got something to hide, if you've got something to sell

If you've got somebody's pride she might kiss and tell

Or wind up with a fight fan in the Hammersmith Hotel
C A
You better speak up now if you want your piece

You better speak up now
G
It won't mean a thing later

Yesterday's news is tomorrow's fish and chip paper

From A Whisper to A Scream Tom: E Intro: E D A F#
E (alternate between E & E/D)
Oh it's not easy to resist temptation
E
Walking around looking like a figment of somebody else's imagination

Taking ev'ry word she says just like an open invitation
A F#m
But the power of persuasion is no match for anticipation
Chorus:
E Bbdim A E
Like a finger running down a seam

I heard someone say where have we met before
A F#m
But the one over the eight seem less like one or more like four
Human Hands Tom: G Intro: Dsus4 F6
G D
I've been talking to the wall and it's been answering me
Em B
Oh darling how I miss you
C G
I'm just the mere shadow of my former selfishness
Am7 D
I crave the silhouette of your kiss
G D
With only the blue light of the TV on
Em B
Lip reading threats and false alarms
C G
There's a boy somewhere holding hands with himself
Am7 D
And a girl in a window on the Reeperbarn
C C#dim G B
Whenever I put my foot in my mouth and you begin to doubt
Em A
That it's you that I'm dreaming about
Cm C
Do I have to draw you a diagram?
C#dim G Am Em
All I ever want is just to fall into your human hands
G D
With the kings and queens of the dance hall craze
Em B
Checkmate in three moves in your heyday
C G
But the girls don't listen to your line anymore
Am7 D
Now you're part of someone else
G D Em
On the factory floor and you still say "Wheres the action?"
B C
Now you manufacture happiness
G D
And get sold on the cheap for someone's satisfaction
**Chorus
G D
All you toy soldiers and scaremongers
Em B
Are you living in this world sometimes I wonder
C G Am7 D
In between saying you've seen too much and saying you've seen it all before
G D
Tighter and tighter I hold you tightly
Em
You know I love you more than slightly
G Am7 D
Although I've never said it like this before
**Chorus
Kid About It Tom: G
G F#m B
He saw no tears in her eyes
Em
Say you wouldn't kid about it
G F#m
She's telling all of those lies
B Em
She swore she'd never told before, but I doubt it
C
So he bit his tongue
Bm Am
And tried hard to capture his breath
C
When she said I waited all my life
C
For just a little death
Chorus: D G F#m Say you wouldn't kid about it B Em Say you wouldn't kid about it A G F#m Say you wouldn't kid about it B Em Eb7 (XX1323) Say you wouldn't kid about it
C Em
Sometimes he takes himself so seriously
C Em
She makes her movements mysteriously
F Dm Eb7
Slow fast or furiously
C
It's a big responsibility
Em
With a face full of mixed ability
C
Big dreams of elegance
Em F C
Singing "The Leaving of Liverpool"
D D9 (XX1232)
And turning into Americans
D G
Say you wouldn't kid about it
G F#m B
So what if this is a man's world
Em
I want to be a kid again about it
G F#m
Give me back my sadness
B Em
I couldn't hide it even if I tried girl
C
We fight so frail
Bm Am
Making love tooth and nail
C/D
You gave me the kiss of my life
D
I might even live to tell the tale
**Chorus
Little Savage Tom: G Intro: Dm C G Dm C G
F G D I would have waited all my life D G A Just to make love out of something other than spite C G Gm A But the beauty is the beast you're baiting Dm G Should really be worth the waiting
Em A You do something ver - y special to Em A Mr. Average Em B Now the lamb lies with the lion F A Dm C G Dm C G He's just a lit - tle savage F G D G A And so you turn your back on me D F#m Gm C G And all the hot air that only echoes stale tobacco
F G D
Actions speak louder now than words (By just a fraction)
D G A C
What's the use of saying I love you when I'm drinking to distraction
G Gm
We save our sanity
A F
By saying such and such
Db+
After all its been discussed
F G
You say you must be touched
**Chorus
