A Town Called Malice by The Jam.
When You're playing the B chord, you need to hammer on the C note at the end of the bar,
if played from the 1st position is the G string on the 6th fret or if you play it
at the 7th fret, it will be the D string at the 11th fret.
It sounds best if you play with a capo on the 2nd fret, play all chords as normal except
E, play the D chord, Capo 2 makes an E.
Intro:
You'd better stop dreaming of the quiet life
cos it's the one we'll never know
And quit running for that runaway bus
'cos those rosey days are few
And stop apologising for the things you've never done
'cos time is short and life is cruel, but it's up to us to change

this town called
malice Yeah-eah-eah
Verse 2:
Rows and rows of disused milk floats
stand dying in the dairy yard
And a hundred lonely housewives
clutch empty milk bottles to their hearts
Hanging out their old love letters on the line to dry
It's enough to make you stop believing when tears come fast and furious in a town called
malice, Yeah-eah-eah
This town called
malice, ooh-ooh-yeah
Verse 3:
Ba ba ba ba bada ba, ba ba bada baa oh
Ba ba ba ba bada ba, ba ba bada baa oh
Struggle after struggle, year after year
The atmosphere's a fine blend of ice, I'm almost stone cold dead in a town called
malice, Yeah-eah-eahB

Bridge:
whole street's belief in Sunday's roast beef
Gets dashed against the Co-op
To either cut down on beer or the kids new gear
It's a big decision in a town called malice.
Verse 4:
The ghost of a steam train, echoes down my track
It's at the moment bound for nowhere, just going round and round
D#m7Playground kids and creaking swings, lost laughter in the breeze
I could go on for hours and I probably will, I'd sooner put some joy back in
