Intro 1
(D major)
Verse 1
There's indifference (D major) on the wind
But a faint gust of hope
At a club nobody goes to
With a musty velvet rope
Guys in (G major) Motörhead jackets
Who knew him way back when
(D major) Haven't raised a drink in years
But now meet up again
To re (C major) member how it was
When they all (G major) thought they'd move away
And (D major) ride in Lotus 7s
Through the London streets one day (G major)

Verse 2
(A major) Nobody ever gets (D major) away (G major)
(A major) Even the best of us come
(G major) back some (A major) day (B flat major)
To the (C major) unmarked rooms,
where the (D major) dry dust breeds (G major)
Andrew Eldritch (D major) is (G major) moving
back to (A major) Leeds
(D major)
Verse 3
There's a rusted fog machine
In a concrete storage space
Letter- number combinations
With no meaning on its face
They won't (G major) make these anymore
It's a wooden coach- n- four
No- (D major) one will even steal it
If you leave it by the door
No sign (C major) to mark it's going
No tomb (G major) stone for its grave
There will (D major) be goodbyes by dozens
So practice being brave (G major)
Verse 4
(A major) No- one an (D major) ticipates the rush (G major)
(A major) The breezy feeling of
the faceless (G major) (A major) crush (B flat major)
At the (C major) end of things,
where the salvage (D major) bleeds (G major)
Andrew Eldritch (D major) is (E minor) moving
back (G major) to (A major) Leeds (Daug)
They don't throw him (D major) a parade
Verse 5
He (F sharp minor) just comes in on a train (B minor)
One (B flataug) suitcase in his hand
And an (D major) old army backpack
From the second (G major) world war
From a Leipzig secondhand (A major)
store
(D major) (G minor) (D major)
Verse 6
Pick the keys up from the agent
Everything's been taken care of
No big changes in the roadways
Since you've left that I'm aware of
A few old (G major) buildings gone to dust
And some new ones in the way
They'll (D major) look just like the old ones
When the winds have (G major) had their say (D major)
See the (C major) children bound for London
(G major) You'll all be back too
Everybody (D major) tests the membrane
But no- one pushes through
(G major)
Verse 7
(A major)
Come on boys that'll (D major) be enough (G major)
(A major) You'd think your old (D major) friends wouldn't
play (G major) so (A flatdim) (G major) (A major) tough (B flat major)
Like a (C major) basket by the Nile,
hiding (D major) down among the reeds (G major)
Andrew (D major) Eldritch is (E minor) moving back to (A major) Leeds
