INTRO
G

VERSE
         G                     Em
With the red scrunchie for her birthday gift, 
    C                       D
She scrapes her hair into a Croydon facelift,
G                   Em
Punch drunk love at sweet 16,
    C                D
She thumbs a ride to Gretna Green,
        G                 Em
Leaving something old for somewhere new,
   C                         D
To be with someone battered, black and blue,
    G                          Em
She turns out her light with a song to sing,
          C                    D
Grabs her shoulder bag and her Argos ring,


PRE-CHORUS/CHORUS
               G
And she says,
               Em
Without a penny, in my pocket,
    C              D                  G 
I�m out of luck in this kind of town,
                Em
But I�ve got you, right by my side,
     C             D                             G    D     Em
So I won�t let them, No I won't let them drag me down,
C               D                G     D     Em
     So I won�t let them drag me down,
C               D                G     D     Em
     no I won�t let them drag me down,
C               D                G     D     Em
     no I won�t let them drag me down,

 
He turned from Jack the lad into Jack the dad,
His heart was pure but the town was bad,
He had a broken heart from a broken home,
She heard his breaking voice through a broken phone,
He said �For you girl I�d walk a Swedish mile,
For a Glasgow kiss and a Chelsea smile�,
So he drove til it was morning light,
And the birds will sing him to sleep tonight,
And he says,
 
Without a penny, in my pocket,
I�m out of luck in this kind of town,
But I�ve got you right by my side,
So I won�t let them drag me down.
