F         Am      Bb          F
Not the hospital gown you're wearing
F      Am7            Bb      C
Or the bad luck that dogs us down
       Dm  C     Bb  F  Gm
What's done is done
                C         F
They burned the old place down
F       Am        Bb         F
Run around in the reference section
F        Am7         Bb       C
Tried to catch the attendants eye
    Dm   C        Bb        F  Gm
Ten years on the night shift
             C        F
Well I don't work tonight
Dm     C             Dm
All my books are on loan
          Bb          C          F
Since the government bookstore closed
Gm     C             Dm
All my books are on loan
          Bb          Am7       Bb    F
Since the government bookstore closed
F        Am         Bb    F
Well we met in the hotel lobby
F     Am7     Bb    C        Dm
The executor read aloud the will
     C       Bb    F  Gm
No wake, no eulogy
             C     F
From this pathetic crowd
A
It's no Bloomsbury afternoon
       Dm                      C
Just a couple of soaks and the village fool
F           Am            Bb         F
Well they closed down the whole main building
F       Am7        Bb          C          Dm
Boarded up and the main gates staying locked
C         Bb        F  Gm
Used to steal things
               C     F
