Went out on the balcony to do this one. I did go to London when I was 16 and skint, with my guitar and skint friend, to live by playing music on the street, lasted about a day I think, lol.(I can smile about now but at the time...)
***Lyrics***
Call me morbid, call me pale
I've spent six years on your trail
Six long years
On your trail

Call me morbid, call me pale
I've spent six years on your trail
Six full years of my life on your trail


And if you have five seconds to spare
Then I'll tell you the story of my life :
Sixteen, clumsy and shy
I went to London and I
I booked myself in at the Y ... W.C.A.
I said : "I like it here - can I stay ?
I like it here - can I stay ?
Do you have a vacancy
For a Back-scrubber?"


She was left behind, and sour
And she wrote to me, equally dour
She said : "In the days when you were
Hopelessly poor
I just liked you more..."


And if you have five seconds to spare
Then I'll tell you the story of my life :
Sixteen, clumsy and shy
I went to London and I
I booked myself in at the Y ... W.C.A.
I said : "I like it here - can I stay ?
I like it here - can I stay ?
And do you have a vacancy
For a Back-scrubber ?"


Call me morbid, call me pale
I've spent too long on your trail
Far too long
Chasing your tail
Oh ...


And if you have five seconds to spare
Then I'll tell you the story of my life :
Sixteen, clumsy and shy
That's the story of my life
Sixteen, clumsy and shy
The story of my life
That's the story of my life
That's the story of my life
That's the story of my life

  • that was awesome! I just found the chords for that song online but I like the sound of the version you played. Could you list the chords or if someone knows who reads this, could you?

  • listen to my perfect recording of this song (bass, rhythm/lead guitar, midi drums)

  • wonderful ...the smiths

  • Great trailer man!! going to watch this in webmovietube

  • Good version. The washing hanging up in the background is a nice touch!

  • First 5 seconds are scary, but after that a brilliant impression!
