Words to Nicks new song ??

Imagine Clint Eastwood walking down the high street


I walked the streets
Like a man with no name
Into the bar before the show
but on another plain
The faces turned my way
And narrowed my eyes
Like I meet my maker
But I did not die
There will be no gun play
No widowed cry
Although the undertaker hovers near by

Where ever I go
Whatever my fate
I am one of the thirty eight

I am in the house of the lord
but it is colder within
Though it is filled with the voices
Of the cherubim
And in the tiny houses
With the lights on inside
Where the little devils
Play seek and hide
And there's a bearded? picture
There's a world out there
So what are your troubles
What are your cares

chorus

 

That sounds about right! How did you remember that?

 

Aha! At Telf's place - dunno who the other chap is though! Maybe it's telf?!

 

I walked the streets
Like a man with no name
Into the bar before the show
but on another plain
The faces turned my way
And narrowed my eyes
Like I met my maker
But I did not die
There will be no gun play
No widowed cry
Although the undertaker hovers near by

Where ever I go
Whatever my fate
I am one of the thirty eight

I am in the house of the lord
but it is colder within
Though it is filled with the voices
Of the cherubim
And in the tiny houses
With the lights on inside
Where the little devils
Play seek and hide
And there's a bigger picture
There's a world out there
So what are your troubles
What are your cares

Where ever I go
Whatever my fate
I am one of the thirty eight

Whatever I do,
Whatever awaits,
I'll always be one of the thirty eight, thirty eight.

Let's drink to the children,
let's drink to the poor,
we'll drink all through christmas.
and drink a little more,
Putting the world to rights again,
with all the kings horses,
and all the kings men,

Where ever I go,
Whatever my fate,
I'll always be one of the thirty eight,

Whatever I do,
Whatever awaits,
I'll always be one of the the thirty eight, thirty eight.



I think the above is correct now - just a few changes. Now does anyone have the chords?

 

Yes, isn't that thingy (I've forgotten his name now) from Telfords. Tall boy isn't he!

 

when telfords burned down I thought cool it'll be a great place when its rebuilt, but alas if you aren't in the front 30 you are just gonna be looking at a brick arch and a pair of shoes on stage all night.

 

No not him! I'm talking about the one on the left... :biggrin: Oh and that bloke who nearly got chucked out in St H is in the middle just in case anyone's interested. Got a beer in his hand again too...

 

Great word-age Critch! Do you wanna start a thread for the song? :biggrin: That is stuck in my head now and won't leave, happily I'm not too bothered

 

I'm thinking of writing "I can play Harpic" for easy piano soon, and I might include this one!
