Edward Ball - The Mill Hill Self Hate Club

      EDWARD BALL / THE MILL HILL SELF HATE CLUB
(from 'Catholic Guilt', 1997)

The verses all follow the same simple pattern: F - G - Am - Am
And so does the refrain: C - D7 - F - F
The rest can be easily improvised.

F  G  Am  Am 
F  G  Am  Am 

F                        G    
A dark shadow hangs over me 
   Am 
It follows me wherever I go
     F                                   G
So I wrote this song for the girl by the sea
   Am  
To remind me that we were once close

        F                 G
I could never stand to be without you 
    Am 
But when we were together, well we just couldn't stop fighting
       F                              G
If you see her, gonna tell her, gonna tell if you see her 
       Am 
That I really really miss her
       
               C             D7
        If you see her, tell her 
            F
        I'm standing at the Fiveways as the world spins round around me
               C             D7
        If you see her, tell her 
            F
        I'm just another member of the Mill Hill Self Hate Club

        Am  G  F  F
        Am  G  F  F

   F               G
On London Fields I fell for a girl
   Am 
On Primrose Hill she changed my world
     F        G
In a storm at Dover
  Am 
I knew our love would open up

F                   G
Then she brought me back to life
Am 
Just to have me crucified
    F                 G
For fourteen stations of my cross
     Am 
From Waterloo to Dover Docks

           F                              G
But if you see her, gonna tell her, gonna tell her if you see her
       Am 
That I really really miss her

               C             D7
        If you see her, tell her, 
            F
        I'm standing at the Fiveways as the world spins round around me
               C                             D7
        If you see her gonna tell her, gonna tell her if you see her
          F                                                           
        I really really miss her and it's driving me insane     

               C             D7
        If you see her, tell her 
            F
        I'm standing at the Fiveways as the world spins round around me
               C             D7
        If you see her, tell her, 
            F
        I'm just another member of the Mill Hill Self Hate Club

               C             D7
        If you see her, tell her (won't you, please?)
            F
        I'm just another member of the Mill Hill Self Hate Club 
               C                             D7
        If you see her gonna tell her, gonna tell her if you see her
          F                                                           
        I really really miss her and it's driving me insane     

               C             D7
        If you see her, tell her 
            F
        I'm just another member of the Mill Hill Self Hate Club 
               C                             D7
        If you see her gonna tell her, gonna tell her if you see her
          F                                                           
        I really really miss her...
