 INTRO
      G   Bm   Am   D


      G                        Em
        You have never been in love
                              Bm
        until you've seen the stars
                        D
        reflect in the reservoirs
      G                            Em
        and you have never been in love
                              Bm
        until you've seen the dawn rise
               D
        behind the Home For The Blind

BRIDGE
                   Am           Em     Bm-Bbm-Am
        we are the Pretty Petty Thieves
    Am                             Em
        and you're standing on our streets

CHORUS (x2)
               D             G
        where Hector was the first of the gang with a gun in his hand
                Bm                                 Bbm     Am       D
        and the first to do time, the first of the gang to die - oh my 
                                 

CHORUS (x2)

        You have never been in love
        until you've seen sunlight thrown
        over smashed human bone
BRIDGE
        We are the Pretty Petty Thieves
        and you're standing on our streets

        and the first to do time the first of the gang to die such a silly boy
                        G         
        Hector was the first of the gang with a gun in his hand
               Bm                          Bbm        Am                D
        and a bullet in his gullet and the first Lost Lad to go under the sod

        And he stole from the rich and the poor and the not-very-rich
                Bm                               Am
        and the very poor and he stole all hearts away
                           D                     G
        Stole all hearts away, stole all hearts away ahay ahay ahay

        Away-ahay stole all hearts away ... away
