DEAD END STREET
Am C G Dm F Am
1.
There's a crack up in the ceiling,
and the kitchen sink is leaking.
\ C G
Dm F Am
Out of
work and got no money, a Sunday
jam of bread and honey.
Am
G-F E
What are
we living for? Two roomed apartment on
the second floor?

No money
comin' in, the rent collector's
knockin', trying to get in
A Dm E
We are strictly second class, we don't understand.

On a cold and frosty morning,
wipe my eyes and stop me yawning,
Am

and my
feet are nearly frozen, boil the
tea and put some toast on
\ G-F E
What
are we livin' for? Two roomed
apartment on the second floor?
Am

No
chance to emigrate, I'm deep in debt
and now it's much too late
A Dm E
We
both have to work so hard, we can't get the chance.
