The Vaselines - Last half hour

^C Stepping i^Fnto the spotlight,^G made up and ^Amdressed for this special ^Fnight Tongue tied, my ^Cheart’s beating fast,^G same jokes and tired laughs ^C Rehearsed and ^Ffully prepared,^G lines learned but ^AmI’m feeling scared ^F Dutch courage ^Cflows in my veins,^G needed more but the bottle is drained

^FSwitch on, switch off, ^Cdim the lights low ^G Find the curtain, end of the show ^FSwitch on, switch off, ^Cdim the lights low ^G Find the curtain, end of the show

^C Went wrong too^F many times,^G missed cues, for^Amgotten punchlines ^F I was down, my ^Cwords wouldn’t flow,^G different time but the same old show ^C My posters ^Ffaded and torn,^G stage clothes are ^Amhanging unworn ^F And the queues they ^Cstretch around the block,^G sit at home with the radio on
