Little Time Bomb
(Billy Bragg)
G
One’s of them off her food
C G
And the other’s off his head
Em G D
And both of them are off down the boozer
C G
To drink a toast
C G
To the one that he hates most
Em G D G
And she says there are no winner, only losers
G Em
Well if there are no winners
C G
Then what is this he thinks
Em G D
As he watches her complete a lap of honour
C G
And he sits in the stands
C G
With his head in his hands
Em G
And he thinks of all the things
D G
He’d like to bring down upon her
G Em C G
Revenge will bring cold comfort in this darkest hour
G C D G
As the jukebox says ‘It’s All Over Now’
Em G
And he stands and he screams
C G
What have I done wrong
D Em C G
I’ve fallen in love with a little time bomb
D Em C G
I’ve fallen in love with a little time bomb
C G Am G
In public he’s such a man
C G Am G
He’s punching at the walls with his bare ad bloody hands
C G Am G
He’s screaming and shouting and acting crazy
C D
But at home he sits alone and he cries like a baby
G Em C G
He holds your letters but he can’t read them
G C D G
As he fights this loneliness you call freedom
Em G C G
You said this would happen and you were not wrong
D Em C G
I’ve fallen in love with a little time bomb
D Em C G
I’ve fallen in love with a little time bomb
