Remove AdsTHE DAYS OF PEARLY SPENCER - Jussi Syren and the Grounbreakers
[Intro]
Bm F#m Bm D A
[Verse]
BmA tenement, a dirty street
F#mWalked and worn by shoeless feet
BmIn silence long and so complete
D AWatched by a shivering sun
BmOld eyes in a small child's face
F#mWatching as the shadows race
BmThrough walls and cracks that leave no trace
D AAnd daylight's brightness shun
[Chorus]
Em A Bm The days of Pearly Spencer
Em A Bm The race is almost run
[Verse]
BmNose pressed hard on frosted glass
F#mGazing as the swollen mass
BmOn concrete fields where grows no grass
D AStumbles blindly on
BmIron trees smother the air
F#mBut withering they stand and stare
BmThrough eyes that neither know nor care
D AWhere the grass has gone
[Chorus]
Em A Bm The days of Pearly Spencer
Em A Bm The race is almost run
[Solo]
Bm F#m Bm D A (2x)
[Chorus]
Em A Bm The days of Pearly Spencer
Em A Bm The race is almost run
[Verse]
BmPearly, where's your milk white skin
F#mWhat's that stubble on your chin
BmIt's buried in the rotgut gin
D AYou've played and lost, not won
BmYou played a house that can't be beat
F#mNow look, your head's bowed in defeat
BmYou walked too far along the street
D AWhere only rats can run
[Chorus]
Em A Bm The days of Pearly Spencer
Em A Bm The race is almost run
Em A Bm The days of Pearly Spencer
Em A Bm The race is almost run
