Tuning: G C E A

ST SWITHINS DAY by Kirsty MacColl (written by Billy Bragg)

Thinking back no^Cw ^G I suppose ^Fyou w^Cere j^Gust stating your views What^C was ^Git all for For the ^Fweath^Cer ^Gor the battle of Agincourt ^FAnd the times that we all hoped would^G last Lik^Ame a train^F they have gone by so fast And though we ^Fstood together at the ^Cedge of the ^Gplatform We w^Cere not mov^Ged by them

With ^Cmy ow^Gn hands As I mak^Fe lov^Ce to y^Gour memory It's^C not^G the same I mi^Fss th^Ce thu^Gnder I miss the rain ^FAnd the fact that you don't understan^Gd Cas^Amts a sh^Fadow over this land But the sun s^Ctill sh^Gines ^Cfro^Gm behind it

Thanks all the same But I just can't bring myself to answer your letters It's not your fault But your honesty touches me like a fire The polaroids that keep us together Will surely fade away Like the love that we spoke of forever On St. Swithins Day
