Tommy

Intro 
Bm A E E x4 

 
          Bm                         A 
She was a bright girl knew her since secondary school 
E 
Wanted to be an actress she had dreams to have it all 
           Bm            A 
At a local pub one night playing games of pool 
    E 
She met this bloke called Tommy and she thought Tommy was cool 
    Bm                       A 
But Tommy was a tough guy he carried round a tool 
          E 
And would push out bags of powder then go out and have a ball 
    Bm                        A 
She liked his eyes and how he didnt follow rules 
    E 
And suddenly into the depths of darkness she would fall 
 

 
       Bm     A 
I said hey 
E                                            Bm     A 
Dont get with that boy hell take your soul away 
    E                                         Bm 
And now shes looking out for someone else to blame 
         A 
But its all the time 
   E 
If only things came with a sign 
    Bm                A                    E 
Cos now its gone too far and its all too late 
 

 
                Bm    A E E 
Its always the way 
                Bm    A E 
Its always the way 
E 
Yeah 
 

 
             Bm                        A 
So now shes bunking off of college no longer sees her mates 
      E 
Shes too busy rehearsing all her lines round Tommys place 
          Bm                        A 
And Tommy all he wants to do is get completely off his face 
    E 
Her goals and aspirations slowly going down the drain 
   Bm                                A 
He gets her on the soft stuff but of course she upgrades 
              E 
And now shes getting twisted every night shes forgotten her own name 
    Bm                          A 
And all I can think is how its all such a shame 
    E 
Cos now shes sat infront of the tele sticking needles in her veins 
 

 
       Bm     A 
I said hey 
E                                            Bm     A 
Dont get with that boy hell take your soul away 
    E                                         Bm 
And now shes looking out for someone else to blame 
         A 
But its all the time 
   E 
If only things came with a sign 
    Bm                A                    E 
Cos now its gone too far and its all too late  

Bm A E E x6 


 
Bm 
Love 
       A 
It can kill you if you let it 
E 
Cos now shes wishing that she never even met him 
Bm              A 
 Hes hit her 3 times and I bet it 
E 
Will turn to 4 by the time you see the paramedics 
       Bm                  A 
Its a sad path that shes had to go down 
              E 
Cos now shes looking in the mirror and her stomachs looking round 
         Bm                       A 
She gets stressed and pulls out a pregnancy test 
    E 
And lets just say the outcome could be anybodys guess 
 

 
       Bm     A 
I said hey 
E                                            Bm     A 
Dont get with that boy hell take your soul away 
    E                                         Bm 
And now shes looking out for someone else to blame 
         A 
But its all the time 
   E 
If only things came with a sign 
    Bm                A                    E 
Cos now its gone too far and its all too late late late late 
 

Outro

Repeat and fade out.
