***More Pricks Than Kicks - by Shane MacGowan

There's only two major parts to this song, the verse and chorus, with the
intro, breaks and outro all being a variety of these.

More Pricks Than Kicks - as perfomed by Shane MacGowan and The Popes

   C                   F         C
If you around we could go on the town
C               G            C
Instead of just going on the booze
C                               F                C
If you'd stayed in my life we'd kick up the high life
C                  G          C
Country Irish like we used to do
         F              C
And we'd drink and we'd dance
         F              C
And we'd dance and we'd drink
         F              C
And we'd drink and we'd dance
         G              C
And we'd dance and we'd drink

C                         F       C
So at my command will you take my hand
C                   G     C
And we'll dance the final dance
         F                C
But it's more pricks than kicks
F              C
That's what it is
      F          C
I'm a scumbag, a lout,
           G               C
That's the way that things are

If you name me a street then I'll name you a bar
And I'll walk right through Hell just to buy you a jar
If you name me a street then I'll name you a bar
And I'll walk right through Hell just to buy you a jar

Break: (verse) C F C, C G C, C F C, C G C
       (chorus) F C, F C, F C, G C
       (verse) C F C, C G C

But it's more pricks than kicks
That's what it is
I'm a scumbag, a lout,
That's the way that things are

If you name me a street then I'll choose you a bar
And I'll walk right through Hell just to buy you a jar
If you name me a street then I'll name you a bar
And I'll walk right through Hell just to buy you a jar

Outro: C F C, C G C (x12)
