E
Stuck in speed bump city Where the only thing that?s pretty
A E
Is the thought of getting out
E
There?s a tower block overhead All you?ve got?s your benefits
A E
And you?re barely scraping by
A
In this trouble town
C E
Troubles are found
A
In this trouble town
C E
Words do get ?round
E
Kick the bottom make troubles flee Smoke until our eyes would bleed
A E
Sparkle pop the seed
E
Hear the sirens down the street The kids get light on their feet
A E
Or they?ll be in the back seat
A
In this trouble town
C E
Troubles are found
D
Sitting on the pavement
A
Boy you?ve missed your payment
A E
And they?re gonna find you soon
D
If there?s a beating in the rain
A
If there?s a little bit of pain, man
A E
You?re the one it happens to
E
If I talk of getting out I only hear the laughter loud
A E
It?s got an ugly echo
E
Somewhere there?s a secret road To take me far away I know
A E
But ?til then I am hollow
A
In this trouble town
C E
Troubles are found
A
In this trouble town
C E
Words do get ?round
D
Sitting on the pavement
A
Boy you?ve missed your payment
A E
And they?re gonna find you soon
D
If there?s a beating in the streets
A
If there?s a feeling of defeat
A E
You?re the one it happens to
E
Stuck in speed bump city Where the only thing that?s pretty
A E
Is the thought of getting out
