Strange Town by The Jam

Intro
G5, G5, G5, G5

Verse 1
C            Am7
 Found myself in a strange town
F             G
 Though I've only been here for 3 weeks now
C            Am7
 I've got blisters on my feet
F              G
 Trying to find a friend in Oxford Street
C           Am7
 I bought an A to Z guide book
F               G
 Trying to find the clubs and YMCA's
C             Am7
 But when you ask in a strange town
F                    G
 They say "Don't know, don't care and I got to go mate"

Chorus
   F           Gsus4  G
They worry themselves about feeling low
   F             Gsus4   G
They worry themselves about the dreadful snow
   F         Gsus4    G
They all ignore me coz they don't know
  F                G6
I'm really a spaceman from those UFO's


Verse 2
C             Am7
You gotta to move in a straight line
F               G
 You gotta to walk and talk in four four time
C               Am7
 You can't be wierd in a strange town
F              G
 You'll be betrayed by your accent and manners
C             Am7
 You gotta to wear the right clothes
F              G
 Be careful not to pick or scratch your nose
C              Am7
 You can't be nice in a strange town
F                   G
 "Coz we don't know , don't care, and we got to go mate"

Chorus
F          Gsus4   G
Rush my money to the record shops
 F                Gsus4  G
I stop off in a back street, buy myself a snort
      F          Gsus4   G
We got our own manifesto, to be kind to queers
  F             G6
I'm oh so glad the revolutions here.
G5
