The Days Of Pearly Spencer by Marc Almond
The Days Of Pearly Spencer
Intro: Cm Bb G# Bb X2 Fm Gm Cm X2
Verse 1:
Cm Gm
A tenement, a dirty street, walked and worn by shoeless feet
Cm Eb Bb
Inside it's long and so complete, watched by a shivering sun
Cm Gm
Old eyes in a small child's face watching as the shadows race
Cm Eb Bb
Through walls and cracks that leave no trace and daylight's brightness shun
Chorus:
Fm Gm Cm Fm Gm Cm
The days of Pearly Spencer, ah hah, the race is almost run
Verse 2:
Cm Gm
Nose pressed hard on frosted glass gazing as the swollen mass
Cm Eb Bb
On concrete fields where grows no grass stumbles blindly on
Cm Gm
Iron trees smother the air but withering, they stand and stare
Cm Eb Bb
Through eyes that neither know nor care where the grass has gone
Chorus:
Fm Gm Cm Fm Gm Cm
The days of Pearly Spencer, ah hah, The race is almost run
Verse 3:
Cm Gm
Pearly where's your milk white skin, what's that stubble on your chin
Cm Eb Bb
It's buried in the rot gut gin, you played and lost not won
Cm Gm
You played a house that can't be beat, now look your head's bowed in defeat
Cm Eb Bb
You walked too far along the street where only rats can run
Chorus:
Fm Gm Cm Fm Gm Cm
The days of Pearly Spencer, ah hah, the race is almost run
Chorus:
Fm Gm Cm Fm Gm G# Cm
The days of Pearly Spencer, ah hah, the race is almost run, the race is almost run
Break: E Cm X2 Cm
Verse 4:
Cm Gm
A tenement, a dirty street, remember worn and shoeless feet
Cm Eb Bb
Remember how you stood to beat the way your life had gone
Cm Gm
So Pearly don't you shed more tears for those best forgotten years
Cm Eb Bb
Those tenements are memories of where you've risen from
Chorus:
Fm Gm Cm Fm Gm Cm
The days of Pearly Spencer, ah hah, the race is almost won
