Sad City Sisters

G    F

[Verse 1]
G
Hard to choose, to choose between them
F           C                 G
Tramps on a night out, out of season
G
Bare legs and arms at the taxi stand
         C                  G
Shoes in hand, cold kerb to freeze on

[Chorus]
     Em                D        Am
What desperation, what souls possessed
     F                 C      D
With lonely demons are put to test?
G
Why should we worry, why should we care
     F       C        Am       G
That warrior horsemen shame, defile them?
    F       Dm               C
Why tip the cabbie, plus his fare?

[Bridge]
   D
So send them home to stumble in
    F                   D
And toss their knickers in the bin
                      F      D
Repentance looms then mеlts away
C                        D
Mocked by dark unearthly silencе
  Am                   G
Replaced by incubus at play

[Verse 2]
G
Bad sisters stare, graffiti walls
      F    C         Am      G
Stare in return when weekend calls
                        F     G
The empty bragging, the empty lives
   D       C                  G
In anguish echo through empty malls

[Chorus]
     Em                D        Am
What desperation, what souls possessed
     F                 C      D
With lonely demons are put to test?
G
Why should we worry, why should we care
     F       C        Am       G
That warrior horsemen shame, defile them?
    F       Dm             C
The six-gun notches say it all

[Interlude]
G

[Verse 3]
G
It was hard to choose, to choose between them
F                      Am     G
Tramps on a night out, out of season
                F      G
Out of body and out of mind
D      C             G
Out of dark and into reason

[Flute Solo]
Em  D Am  F  C D  G  F C Am G
F  Dm C

[Bridge]
D
Get them home to stumble in
    C                   D
And toss their knickers in the bin
D
Demons loom then melt away
C                              D
"Enough!" disrupts the earthly silence
       Am           G
Guilty Eros had his day
      G         Am        G
Hands two sad souls to Agápē
