Berikut ini lirik dan chord lagu "Town Called Malice" dari The Jam:
[Verse 1]
F#m
Better stop dreaming of a quiet life,
Em
´Cause it´s the one we´ll never know
F#m
And quit running for that runaway bus
Em
'Cause those rosy days are few
G
And stop apologizing,
F#m
For the things you´vre never done
A
´Causet Time is short and life is cruel
But it´s up to us to change
D
This town called Malice
[Verse 2]
F#m
Rows and rows of disused milk
Em
Floats stand dying in the dairy yard
F#m
And a hundred lonely house wifes
Em
Clutch empty milk bottles to their hearts
G
Hanging out their old love letters
F#m
On the lines to dry
A
It´s enough to make you stop believing
When tears come fast and furious
D
In this town called Malice
F#m Em
[Instrumental]
F#m Em
[Chorus]
G
Struggle after struggle
F#m
Year after year
[Bridge]
A
The atmosphere´s a fine blend of ice
I´m almost stone cold dead
D
In this town called Malice
Db
A whole street´s belief
Bm
in Sunday´s roast beef
Dbm Bm
Gets dashed against the Co-Op
[Chorus]
A
To either cut down on beer
Or the kid´s new gear
D
It´s a big descicion in this town called Malice
Oh, yeah
F#m
The ghost of a steam train
Em
Echoes down my track
F#m
It´s at the moment bound for nowhere
Em
Just going round and round
G
Playground kids and creaking swings
F#m
Lost laughter in the breeze
A
I could go on for hours and I propably will
But I´d sooner put some joy back in
[Outro]
D
This town called Malice
This town called Malice
This town called Mailce
