Key: G
Introduction:
G C
Well it tastes like a Sunday,
D Bm
There should be music in the front room,
C Bm D
and the markets a'milling with the people in the afternoon.
G C D Bm
And there's a question to be asked if you're drinking alone,
C Bm D
It's what horse were you thrown from which riderless goes on?
G C
O it must have been a near thing,
D Bm
But no novelty to you,
C Bm D
all the trains and the buses and the cinemas too,
G C D Bm
Breaking down, the bloody town, all reared up like a snake,
C Bm D
For all goodness sake don't touch it or you'll never wake up...
CHORUS
C D C D
His father misses him, His mother misses him,
Bm C
His lady dreams of kissing him,
C D Bm C
Bring the sun back, Bring the sun back,
C D
It's been dark, now it's cold,
Bm C
When the night falls,
C D Bm C
Bring the sun back, Bring the sun back,
C D G
It's a blackbird, he's in the belly.
VERSE
G C D Bm
Well it's cold, it's cold, it's cold and it's cold,
C Bm D
But you've a roof over your head and a comfortable bed,
G C D Bm
Now I'll be better, I'll be true, doing things like I ought to,
C Bm D
If this bird lands in the black lands of Tulla when it's due...
C D C D
His father misses him, His mother misses him,
Bm C
His lady dreams of kissing him,
C D Bm C
Bring the sun back, Bring the sun back,
C D
It's been dark, now it's cold,
Bm C
When the night falls,
C D Bm C
Bring the sun back, Bring the sun back,
C D G
It's a blackbird, he's in the belly.
C D G
It's a blackbird, he's in the belly.
C D G
The night's a blackbird, We're in the belly.
