UK Blues 2

[Verse 1] Oh England, oh the gloom I just left my horribly lonely room I walked to the church where I would play That cold gray August day [Verse 2] Before I went on, I knew you were there But I put it on like I didn't care Just played and sang as well as I could If we were to meet, well then we would [Verse 3] When I saw your face, yeah, it was still That one from those early harmony fills There on that dark Manchester night A riot began but things felt alright [Verse 4] Off to a pub with chatty young Brits Listening to all of their horseshit Glanced at your boots, that watch on your wrist How do I pull you away? [Verse 5] Where are you staying, down the street? Could I help you off of your sleepy feet? Your eyes are far and glazy Could I walk you back? Don't be crazy [Bridge] Crazy, crazy Could I have this night and sing you to sleep? Crazy, crazy [Verse 6] Morning came, a note from the desk "Belfast?" you asked, and I said yes I ironed my shirt and polished my shoes But nothing would kill my UK blues [Chorus] UK, UK blues From the top of my head to the heels of my shoes UK, UK blues Inside my head and inside my shoes [Verse 7] Met up on that Main Street of town Playing to a half empty room of clowns When I was done, some drunk Irishman Said worst night I've had since Bill Callahan [Verse 8] Had some laughs and signed autographs Grabbed my pitiful handful of cash The night was slipping off too soon Tomorrow, goodbye, sad Irish moon [Verse 9] We walked along, you slightly ahead Until we landed on your big king bed Our brains burned, our bodies hurt I like your stockings and long leather skirt [Verse 10] I'm fading off, could I stay the night? "Don't be crazy, it doesn't feel right" Come on Irene, are you sure? God fuck this lonely tune [Verse 11] Walked back down those terrible halls Past those dark chocolate brown walls Looked up at the ceiling A gold skin peeling [Verse 12] You never write and you never call I sometimes wonder, will you at all? But time is past, doesn't phase me Don't be crazy
