Paul Weller – Town Called Malice tab

A Town Called Malice by The Jam.


Tabbed By Brook Jackson


When You're playing the B chord, you need to hammer on the C note at the end of the bar, 
if played from the 1st position is the G string on the 6th fret or if you play it 
at the 7th fret, it will be the D string at the 11th fret.
It sounds best if you play with a capo on the 2nd fret, play all chords as normal except 
E, play the D chord, Capo 2 makes an E.

D#m7
And quit running for that runaway bus
C#m
'cos those rosey days are few

And stop apologising for the things you've never done
F#
'cos time is short and life is cruel, but it's up to us to change

Verse 2:
D#m7
Rows and rows of disused milk floats

And a hundred lonely housewives
C#m
clutch empty milk bottles to their hearts
E                                 D#m7
Hanging out their old love letters on the line to dry

It's at the moment bound for nowhere, just going round and round
