CAPO 5TH FRET
INTRO
G Bm Am D
G Em
You have never been in love
Bm
until you've seen the stars
D
reflect in the reservoirs
G Em
and you have never been in love
Bm
until you've seen the dawn rise
D
behind the Home For The Blind
BRIDGE
Am Em Bm-Bbm-Am
we are the Pretty Petty Thieves
Am Em
and you're standing on our streets
CHORUS (x2)
D G
where Hector was the first of the gang with a gun in his hand
Bm Bbm Am D
and the first to do time, the first of the gang to die - oh my
CHORUS (x2)
You have never been in love
until you've seen sunlight thrown
over smashed human bone
BRIDGE
We are the Pretty Petty Thieves
and you're standing on our streets
CHORUS
D G
where Hector was the first of the gang with a gun in his hand
Bm Bbm Am D
and the first to do time the first of the gang to die such a silly boy
G
Hector was the first of the gang with a gun in his hand
Bm Bbm Am D
and a bullet in his gullet and the first Lost Lad to go under the sod
BREAK F Am Bb C Bb
CHORUS
G
And he stole from the rich and the poor and the not-very-rich
Bm Am
and the very poor and he stole all hearts away
D G
Stole all hearts away, stole all hearts away ahay ahay ahay
Bm Am D
Away-ahay stole all hearts away ... away
