Capo: 2nd fret

[Verse 1]
          Am      Gadd9       Am Gadd9
In a river  the color  of lead
  Fmaj7 Cmaj7
Immerse the  baby's head
Fmaj7 G               Am       Gadd9         Am
       Wrap her up in the News Of   The World
         Gadd9            Fmaj7 Cmaj7
Dump her on   a doorstep, girl 
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Fmaj7 G     Am                      Amadd9 Am
       This night has opened my eyes
          Gadd9      G
And I will     never sleep again
 
 
[Verse 2]
    Am              Gadd9               Am   Gadd9
You kicked and cried     like a bullied child
Fmaj7 Cmaj7                     Fmaj7 G
           A grown man of twentyfive 
           Am     Gadd9         Am
Oh, he said  he'd cure your ills
       Gadd9               Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Fmaj7 G
But he didn't and he never will 
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Am            Amadd9 Am
Oh, save your life  
                    Gadd9   G
Because you've only got  one
 
 
[Chorus]
    Fmaj7
The dream has gone
Cmaj7
But  the baby is real
G F
  Oh, you did a good thing
Dm F G               Fmaj7      Cmaj7
      She could have been a poet
Or, she could have been a fool
G F
  Oh, you did a bad thing
Dm F G           Dm
     And I'm not happy
               F G
And I'm not sad
 
 
[Verse 3]
  Am            Gadd9          Am Gadd9
A shoeless child     on a swing
  Fmaj7        Cmaj7
Reminds you of your own again
Fmaj7 G                          Am
      She took away your troubles
        Gadd9     Am
Oh, but then again
Gadd9
She  left pain
Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Fmaj7 G
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Am                   Amadd9 Am
So, please save your life  
                    Gadd9   G
Because you've only got  one
 
 
[Chorus]
    Fmaj7
The dream has gone
Cmaj7
But  the baby is real
G F
  Oh, you did a good thing
Dm F G
     She could have been a poet
Fmaj7   Cmaj7
Or,  she     could have been a fool
G F
  Oh, you did a bad thing
Dm F G           Dm
     And I'm not happy
               F G
And I'm not sad
 
 
[Outro]
Fmaj7 Cmaj7 G F Dm F G
Fmaj7 Cmaj7 G F Dm
F G
  Oh...
        Dm
And I'm not happy
And I'm not sad
F G Fmaj7 Cmaj7 G F Dm
F G Fmaj7 Cmaj7 G F Dm
F G
  Oh...
        Dm
And I'm not happy
And I'm not sad
F G Fmaj7 Cmaj7 G F Dm
F G
 
 
[Outro (Fade Out)]
Fmaj7 Cmaj7 G F Dm F G
Dm F G
              In a river the colour of lead
Immerse the baby's head
Wrap her up in the News Of The World
Dump her on a doorstep, girl

This night has opened my eyes
And I will never sleep again

You kicked and cried like a bullied child
A grown man of 25
Oh, he said he'd cure your ills
But he didn't and he never will

Oh, save your life
'Because you've only got one
The dream has gone
But the baby is real
Oh, you did a good thing
She could have been a poet
Or, she could have been a fool
Oh, you did a bad thing
And I'm not happy
And I'm not sad

A shoeless child on a swing
Reminds you of your own again
She took away your troubles
Oh, but then again she left pain

Oh, please save your life
Because you've only got one
The dream has gone
But the baby is real
Oh, you did a good thing
She could have been a poet
Or, she could have been a fool
Oh, you did a bad thing
And I'm not happy
And I'm not sad

Oh
Oh
And I'm not happy
And I'm not sad

Oh
Oh
Oh
And I'm not happy
And I'm not sad
