 [Em] When my sister used to [D] get home [C] late. [C9]

(spoken) Out of my window I can see them in the moonlight,                             
 Two silhouettes saying goodnight by the garden gate. (Mom yells at them...)

 [Em] The day they  [D] knocked down th [C] e pally [C9]                               
 [Em] Part of my  [D] childhood died, [C]  just died. [C9]                             
                                                                                       
(loud) EmEm-- DD-C ---- -DD- X 4

 [G] Now I'm grown up and playing in a band,                                           
 [D] And there's a car park where the pally used to  [G] stand.                        
My sister's  [G] married and she lives on an estate.                                   
[D] Her daughters go out, now it's her turn to  [G] wait.                              
 [C] She knows they get away with  [G] things she never could,                         
 [D] But if I asked her I [G] wonder if she would,                                     
                                                                                       
[Chorus]                                                                               
Come  [C] dancing,

Hold the Em for two measures, then modulate to the key of Eb. This is the              
same riff as before, played in Eb. Perhaps someone out there can write the
