Lovestruck Tab

by Madness


Verse:

Staggering home,
			      
the headlights throw a shadow up and upon
			    
friends and loved-ones that have done no wrong,
		   
but no longer mean anything to me

			
Oh, am I mumbling on 
		            
into a crystal glass that echoes a song?
	       
the entisement invites you along
	  
A path of exterior colour 


Bridge:
    
But come the morning, shivering and contorting

to border on the brink, for just another sink
		  
Oh, take me down, for one more round 

    
Oh, involve me in libation, stick a rock in my foundation

I pick all my relations, put me on probation
                  
I'll take you down for one last round 


Chorus:
						     
Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost, given her my utmost
		
spilling out my deepest feelings
						     
Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost, given her my utmost
		
spilling out my deepest feelings
                                    
now all I want to do, is snuggle up to you 
                               
a night-cap in the early morning dew 


Verse:
      	
Look! what have I become?
		     
distancing myself so far and from
      			  
but gazing out, I waved the night boat on
		      
for now its heaven in deepest Tottenham 

    
oh, what have I done to deserve this fate?

It's all going wrong
                   
even the cab fare has been and gone
                   
now I'm lagging in deepest Tottenham 


Bridge:
    
But come the morning, shivering and contorting

to border on the brink, for just another sink
		  
Oh, take me down, for one more round 


Chorus:
						     
Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost, given her my utmost
		
spilling out my deepest feelings
						     
Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost, given her my utmost
		
spilling out my deepest feelings
	                                    
fright me, frightening, strike me down with lightning 
                
I've given in to fighting
                                    
now all I want to do, is get closer to you 
                               
a night cap in the early morning dew 



SOLO:                                            (same as vese)


Chorus:
						     
Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost, given her my utmost
		
spilling out my deepest feelings
						     
Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost, given her my utmost
		
spilling out my deepest feelings

                                     

		 	                    			     
Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost, I'm given it my utmost
                  		    	
I've fallen for a lamppost, with my deepest feeling
                                   
now all I want to do, is snuggle up to you 
                               
a night cap in the early morning dew
