Liz Lawrence – Rooftops chords

Capo 2.
It's literally G, Am, C, G the whole way. I don't know the picking but it's fairly easy to play along with this :)

GThe toy that you got from an old cereal box
Am                         Ctakes pride of place on my window ledge
Gthem pop-cap guns and your father's benson
Am                          Care gonna make a man out of you some day

Amain't it funny how it's all worked out
Cyou've got a job and a family now
Amand I'm singing these same old songs 
Cin empty bars and cheap restaurants

Amand it feels like a matter of days
Cthat I could run all the games we played
Amsitting on the rooftops after dark
C                                Gdrinking in the sky and eating the stars

I'm running home for tea of mash and gravy
shipping for castings on the radio
Mama's in her straights saying she only does her best
but we don't appreciate where the money goes

would you even recognise me now
I lost love and I've fallen down
felt the weight of the world on my shoulder
my young face got a little bit older

had my heart bent, torn in two
surely hope it doesn't happen to you
sitting on the rooftops after dark
drinking in the sky and eating the stars

I won't tie my laces I won't brush my hair
I won't wear nice dresses on a Sunday
I say three 'hail mary's and I'll make my peace
With the Friday night DJ down the alley

ain't it funny how it's all worked out
you've got a job and a family now
and im singing these same old songs 
in empty bars and cheap restaurants

and it feels like a matter of days
that I could run all the games we played
sitting on the rooftops after dark
drinking in the sky and eating the stars

had my heart bent, torn in two
surely hope it doesn't happen to you
sitting on the rooftops after dark
drinking in the sky and eating the stars
