Ian Dury And The Blockheads - Fucking Ada Chords

[Verse]
Bm
Moments of sadness, moments of guilt
F#m
Stains on the memory, stains on the quilt
G
Chapter of incident, chapter and verse
A                    F#
Sub-heading chronic, paragraph worse
 
Bm
Lost in the limelight, backed in the blaze
F#m
Did it for nine pence, those were the days
G
Give me my acre and give me my plough
A
Tell me tomorrow, don't bother me now
 
[Chorus]
D            E
f**king Ada, f**king Ada
A            F#m
f**king Ada, f**king Ada
 
[Verse]
Bm
Times at a distance, times without touch
F#m
Greed forms the habit of asking to much
G
Followed at bedtime by builders and bells
A                            F#
Wait ‘til the doldrums which nothing dispels
 
Bm
Idly, mentally, doubtful and dread
F#
Who runs with the beans shall not stale with the bread
G
Let me lie fallow and dormant dismay
A
Tell me tomorrow, don't bother today
 
[Chorus]
D            E
f**king Ada, f**king Ada
A            F#m
f**king Ada, f**king Ada
 
[Verse]
Bm
Tried like a good ‘un, did it all wrong t
F#
Thought that the hard way was taking to long
G
To late for regret or chemical change
A                        F#
Yesterday's targets have gone out of range
 
Bm
Failure infolds me with clammy green arms
F#
Damn the excursions and blast the alarms
G
For the rest of what's natural I'll lay on the ground
A
Tell me tomorrow if I'm still around
 
[Chorus]
D            E
f**king Ada, f**king Ada
A            F#m
f**king Ada, f**king Ada
 
[Outro]
D            E
f**king Ada, f**king Ada
A            F#m
f**king Ada, f**king Ada
