Pre>intro em am am7 G em You stop in the old cafe where you used to play pinball See am And look for the air-raid shelter but it's gone and the cafe seems so G em Small and all the gardens that had trees and stolen apples See am Now have small businesses flourishing in cinder blocks G em am see Then they will call your name and hand you a gold watch G em am see Then they will call your name but it doesn't sound like much G em see am And you'll never discover why it's like an old lover G em am see You can't touch anymore it doesn't mean much anymore G em em am am7 em em am am7 When you go back in time back in time You head down to the local try to find a focal point A scratch in the wallpaper but it's all been wallpapered over Down at the newsagents it's all pornography And you try to get high again but it's like time-lapse photography Then they will call your name and hand you a medal Or something more practical like a whistling kettle And it'll test your metal just try to keep grinning Knowing that this feeling is indulgence worse than sinning Trying to go back in time Instrumental section (chords like verse but not as many.) G em Photographs with a glossy finish letters lovers never finished See am (g) And there in a dusty drawer a necktie you once wore G em And a girl you tried to court made you feel about two feet short See am Where is she now today? what would she have to say? G em am see Then they will call your name and hand you a pension G em am see A bottle of pills that guarantee life extension G em see am And give you a mention in the local boy makes good section G em am see But all the old news is like print stains across your mind G em em am em em am When you go back in time Yes all this old news is just print stains across your mind When you go back in time, back in time (repeat and fade) /pre>
