------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Love is on the Dole – The Libertines ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: lfgtimmer Tuning: standard This is my version of the song, I think it's more accurate than the other versions that are floating around on the internet. Credits for the lyrics go the tabber of version 1. Suggestions/corrections are more than welcome. Listen to the song for the timing. I hope you enjoy it.

A6 D7 The people realise they have rolled past my tomb A6 D7 We're drinking whisky in a brave new afternoon A6 D7 The people realise they have rolled past my tomb [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/l/libertines/350128.html ] Pre chorus: A6 Strike a light A7 Raise your glasses D* Eb Drink a toast to the boring classes Chorus G On the Albion-ay Cmaj7 Spew it out your soul D Love is on the dole G And there she will stay Cmaj7 D G All night long we were singing Northern songs Cmaj7 D G (hold G until the start of next verse) All night long we were singing Northern songs Verse: Only you battered your broken nose on the grindstone You wake a slave you squandered So your soul is not your own I run from the dust and gloom With only my secrets to keep me warm That's all I could do to keep them from you And its all a pact we swore Pre chorus: Strike a light Raise your glasses Drink a toast to the boring classes Chorus: With Albion-ay Spew it out your soul Love is on the dole And there she will stay All night long we were singing Northern songs All night long we were singing Northern songs Bridge: C Am And I love every inch of you C Am Yes I do love every single inch of you C Am But doesn't she get that warm glow inside? C Am Shoots up your spine and blows through your mind Dm G Oh well, don't you tell me how blessed are the poor E (Am* E Am*) You've always wanted one slice more G (hold it until next verse) Than you and me Love for today makes Verse: My darling was a preacher on the Albion stage She might have been a preacher in the good old days We're drinking whisky in a brave new afternoon Don't people realise they've rolled past my tomb Bridge: Oh well Don't you tell me how blessed are the meek You never turn the other cheek Once in your life Love is on the dole. |
