There's a ^Erusted fog machine in a concrete storage space ^ELetter-number combinations with no meaning on its face They won't ^Amake these anymore, it's a wooden coach-n-four No-^Eone will even steal it if you leave it by the door No ^Dsign to mark it's going, no ^Atombstone for its grave There will ^Ebe goodbyes by dozens, so practice being brave ^A

^BNo-one anticipates the ^Erush ^{A B}The breezy feeling of the ^Afaceless ^Bcrush ^C At the ^Dend of things, where the ^Esalvage bleeds ^A Andrew ^EEldritch is ^Amoving back to^B Leeds ^Eaug

Pick the ^Ekeys up from the agent, everything's been taken care of ^ENo big changes in the roadways since you've left that I'm aware of A few old ^Abuildings gone to dust and some new ones in the way They'll ^Elook just like the old ones when the winds have had their say See the ^Dchildren bound for London; ^Ayou'll all be back too Every^Ebody tests the membrane but no-one pushes through ^A

^BCome on boys that'll be e^Enough ^{A B}You'd think your old friends wouldn't ^Aplay so ^Btough ^C Like a ^Dbasket by the Nile, hiding ^Edown among the reeds ^A Andrew ^EEldritch is ^Amoving back to ^BLeeds
