Leftovers Chords

(ver. 1)
Johnny Flynn
Leftovers by Johnny Flynn
Standard Tuning
Capo 4th Fret -


C         F                C               F
I've been drooling at some mangy scr*ps of bread
And these hungry voices make a lot of noise inside my head
G                                          F
Show me the way to the rubbish dump or the bins at closing time
C                          F                    C                F
I've walked a mile just to catch a smile from a fish without its brine

C F C F

     C                 F
Been hanging round the underground
Found a couple of crumbs down there
Was lucky and got some flotsam
    G            
She said her name was Mary May and
    F
She liked the springtime most
             C
She said she left her meals
F                         C                  F
Half ate she said and she left the crusts of toast

Am      C
Leftovers is what I want
Don't need no fine cuisine
Give me a dime for bacon rind
Or slip me some of that old sardine

She'd been seeing a man named Jim
I said I didn't mind
Said that second place is just my style
Like glasses for the blind
I thought she was kin to kind
I knew I'd met my match
And I was sure that I had locked the door
And she had dropped the latch

Leftovers is what I want
Don't need no fine cuisine
Give me a dime for bacon rind
Or slip me some of that old sardine

I said "bring your dark eyes honey"
She said "you bring yours"
Said I don't take second glances
As she walked out the door
I walked after her and waved her down
And asked her why she left
She said she only dealt leftovers
And that all else felt like theft

Leftovers is what I want
Don't need no fine cuisine
Give me a dime for bacon rind
Or slip me some of that old sardine

Leftovers is what I want
Don't need no fine cuisine
Give me a dime for bacon rind
Or slip me some of that old sardine

If you see her, say hello
She'll be out handing scr*ps
But don't be fooled, her heart is ruled
By forces off the maps
Show me the way to the rubbish dump or the bins at closing time
I've walked a mile just to catch a smile from a fish without its brine

Leftovers is what I want
Don't need no fine cuisine
Give me a dime for bacon rind
Or slip me some of that old sardine
