G 
Left wing, savoir faire 
Em 
Ageing flicks of my thin brown hair 
C 
Like an elegy, soaking me 
Am 
Drenched in the language of social mobility 
G 
But I don’t seem to mind, 
Em 
The gruesome link between people and time 
C 
It’s an enemy telling me 
Am 
The wheels of profit Are circling in the opposite 



G     Em      C 
Life don’t animate 
                        G 
Just creeps up on you slowly. 
  G    G/F# Em 
Surely holy water flows  
  G    G/F# Em 
the same as normal water does? 
G     Em      C 
Life don’t animate 
                        G 
Just creeps up on you slowly. 
     C   G6  Am               Em 
In Little Italy I re-adhere. 


verse 2 

G 
Sojourn in my guilt 
Em 
Wrestle words as the apostrophes wilt 
C 
Let the elegiac, question why 
Am 
Accidents happen or the well will dry 
G 
So some come kill me quick 
Em 
Tie me down to an anodyne drip 
C 
To the will of god and the people with sticks 
Am 
For filled with the shrill They show much better that 

 

G     Em      C 
Life don’t animate 
                        G 
Just creeps up on you slowly. 
  G    G/F# Em 
Surely holy water flows  
  G    G/F# Em 
the same as normal water does? 

G     Em      C 
Life don’t animate 
                        G

  G    G/F# Em 
Surely holy water flows  
  G    G/F# Em 
the same as normal water does? 

     C   G6  Am               Em 
In Little Italy I re-adhere.

In Little Italy I re-adhere.

In Little Italy
