Intro---E----D----A----E----D
Verse 1
 A
The house caught on fire in the winter
      D
the bosses lay slain
D
and each of the workers decided
      A
to ten-fold their pay
and they saw in the mirror
      D
the sun had been shot down in flames
       A
and nobody minded the hole in the sky or the rain

Refrain:-
A      E
but it doesnt really matter
D              A
when the judgements are said
      E
'cos we all take our chances
   D   A
to find our romances in some others bed
      E
and you might burn your fingers
D                    A
hook your best friends rings for those
      E
who'd have you standing naked
      D   A
then publicly auction the use of a hose

Verse 2
  A
all the children where laughing
      D
their faces in half at the pain
of the girl who loved talking to walls
      A
and jumping at trains
and the words that ring true
      D
in the playground of fools will remain
      A
and nobody minded the hole in the sky or the rain

Refrain 2:-
A      E
but it doesnt really matter
D      A
when the rights have been read
      E
'cos we all take our chances to glance
    D     A
at the wife in the opposite bed
       E   D A
and I bet Nero and Pilate   could easily explain
      E  D
how policemen and pirates get stoned in glass houses
      A
just finding their way.
