LEVI STUBBS TEARS  Billy Bragg



[Bm]     [F#m]      [G]    [A]  VERSE 1
With the [Bm]money from her accident
She [A]bought herself a mobile [D]home[D/C#]
So at [A]least she could get some enj[G]oyment
out of living [Bm]alone[Bm] [A]
No one could [G]say she was left upon the [D]shelf
Its [A]you and me against the world she mumble to herself
CHORUS
C* G* D* A* C* G* D* B*
C* G* D* A* Bm Bm A
When the world falls apart somethings stay in place
[G]Levis Stubbs [A]tears roll down his [Bm]face[F#m]
VERSE 2
She [Bm]ran away from home [A]in her mother's best [D]coat[D/C#]
She was [A]married before she was [G]even entitled to [Bm]vote[Bm] [A]
And her [G]husband was one of those [D]blokes
The sort who [A]only laughs at his own [Bm]jokes
The [G]sort that a war takes [D]away
And when there [A]wasn't a war he left her anyway
CHORUS (omit F#m)
BRIDGE
[D]Norman [A]Whitfield and [G]Barratt [A]Strong
Are [D]here to make [A]right every[Bm]thing that's wrong
[D]Holland and [A]Holland and Lamont [G]Dozier [A]too
A (hold)
Are here to make it okay with you
VERSE 3
[Bm]One dark night he [A]came home from the [D]sea[D/C#]
And put a [A]hole in her body, [G]where no hole should [Bm]be[Bm] [A]
It hurt her [G]more to see him walking out the [D]door
And though they [A]stiched her back together they left her heart in
pieces on the [Bm]floor[Bm] [A]
When the [G]world falls apart [A]somethings stay in [Bm]place[Bm] [A]
She takes [G]off the Four Tops tape
[A]and puts it back in its [Bm]case[Bm] [A]
When the [G]world falls apart [A]somethings stay in [Bm]plac[Bm]e[A]
[G]Levis Stubbs [A]tears[Bm] [Bm] [A]
Fade on G A Bm A
