INTRO:
Am C G F x2
VERSE I:
Am
It's 4 o'clock in the morning
C G F
We're still putting the world to rights
Am
The whisky's started talking
C G F
There's a fire in your eyes
G
Conspiracy lies heavy
Am
In every word you breath
G
Contencious bones - widely known
Am
Watering the seeds
CHORUS:
F C
Be sure to send a postcard
G Am
When you get there let me know
F C G
You know that I won't stop you when you go
Am C G F x2
VERSE II:
It's 5 o'clock in the morning
And you're glad to be alive
The booze has finished working
The world is on your side
It's clear to see this tyrany
Was all some kind of plot
You secretly confide in me
That where's there's brass there's muck
CHORUS:
Be sure to send a postcard
When you get there let me know
You know that I won't stop you when you go
Be sure to send a postcard
When you get there let me know
I hope that you can make it on your own
INSTRUMENTAL BIT:
Am Am Am C
Am C G F x4
VERSE III:
It's 6 o'clock in the morning
And there's nowhere left to hide
Now we've seen the dawning
All that's left is our goodbyes
It's hard to see the sanity
In what we call our lives
At times it seems that you just need
To follow what's inside
CHORUS:
Be sure to send a postcard
When you get there let me know
You know that I won't stop you when you go
Be sure to send a postcard
When you get there let me know
I hope that you can make it on your own
Be sure to send a postcard
When you get there let me know
I hope that you can make it on your own
OUTRO:
F Am F Am ....
