FA#m
Better stop dreaming of a quiet life,
MIm
´Cause it´s the one we´ll never know
FA#m
And quit running for that runaway bus
MIm
`Cause those rosy days are few
SOL
And stop apologizing,
FA#m
For the things you´vre never done
LA
´CausetTime is short and life is cruel
But it´s up to us to change
RE
This town called Malice
FA#m
Rows and rows of disused milk
MIm
Floats stand dying in the dairy yard
FA#m
And a hundred lonely housewifes
MIm
Clutch empty milk bottles to their hearts
SOL
Hanging out their old love letters
FA#m
On the lines to dry
LA
It´s enough to make you stop believing
When tears come fast and furious
RE
In this town called Malice
FA#m MIm
FA#m MIm
SOL
Struggle after struggle
FA#m
Year after year
LA
The atmosphere´s a fine blend of ice
I´m almost stone cold dead
RE
In this town called Malice
DO#
A whole street´s belief
SIm
in Sunday´s roast beef
DO#m SIm
Gets dashed against the Co-Op
LA
To either cut down on beer
Or the kid´s new gear
RE
It´s a big descicion in this town called Malice
Oh, yeah
FA#m
The ghost of a steam train
MIm
Echoes down my track
FA#m
It´s at the moment bound for nowhere
MIm
Just going round and round
SOL
Playground kids and creaking swings
FA#m
Lost laughter in the breeze
LA
I could go on for hours and I propably will
But I´d sooner put some joy back in
RE
This town called Malice
This town called Malice
This town called Mailce
