Put A Penny In The Slot - Fionn Regan | Guitar Chords | VChords

[Verse 1]
---------------------
   C/G
I apologize, seem to have arrived
          Fmaj7       Em            Am
Home with items in my bag from your house
     C/G
There's cutlery, a tablecloth, some Hennessy
      Fmaj7        Em
And a book on Presidents deceased
Am             C/G
  I'll have them  fedexed to you, it was a strange thing to do
  Fmaj7       Em
I hope we can still be friends
Am       C/G
  Ah, it was not me, but someone else, you see
Fmaj7        Em         Am
Twisting the steering reins

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
Am          Cadd9/B    C        C/D      C/E C/F   Am C/G C/G
Put a penny in     the slot and make an artificial li___ght shine
Fmaj7    Em   Fmaj7   C/G
Leave go , my golden arm 

[Verse 2]
---------------------
  C/G
I don't give advise, but be wise and think twice
       Fmaj7     Em
Before getting involved in a game
Am            C/G
  Where the minority face the majority
        Fmaj7        Em           Am
Who are faceless and born without names
       C/G
Was it not sick when we came across three men
         Fmaj7          Em             Am
They had church candles wrapped in newspaper
  C/G
I bought two from them and I lit one for you
           Fmaj7             Em             Am
I hope the message made it's way down the wire



[Verse 3]
---------------------
    C/G
The soul of a dog, he's alive and not gone
         Fmaj7         Em
To the farm   like the others said
Am     C/G
  A Rhodesian Ridgeback, off the beaten track
     Fmaj7         Em            Am
In a furniture shop  down on the quays
        C/G
For the loneliness you foster I suggest Paul Auster
  Fmaj7       Em      Am
A book called Timbuktu
Am          Cadd9/B    C        C/D       C/E    C/F   Am C/G  C/G
Put a penny in     the slot and watch the Drunken   sailor   boy  dance

[Bridge]
---------------------
Fmaj7 Em    Fmaj7                     C/G G
        She will not let you be her lover
       Fmaj7                      C/G G
She goes    out looking for the taxi
       Fmaj7                                C/G G
Her phone   is ringing straight to messageminder
     Fmaj7                 C/G  G
Send out  a battalion to find her

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
Am          Cadd9/B    C        C/D       C/E   C/F       Am C/G C/G
Put a penny in     the slot and count the swans through a telescope
  Fmaj7           Em        Fmaj7         C/G
I can't help from cryin', I wish you were mine

[Verse 4]
---------------------
     C/G
When I  was seventeen, I followed my dream
     Fmaj7      Em
Up into   a highrise block
Am        C/G
  The adventures of Augie March, by Saul Bellow
     Fmaj7          Em     Am
Was all   I had for company
   C/G
At night time I'd lie in Beckenham Park
     Fmaj7   Em        Am
With tears like flashbulbs
        C/G
And recall my treasuresearching days
         Fmaj7      Em     Am
In the rock   pools as a kid 
C/G
To the remains of the ChairoPlanes
       Fmaj7            Em          Am
Or around   the bonfire in Nailors' cove
     C/G
Good company and grief, sit like a dock leaf
       Fmaj7  Em           Am
Sits beside a stinging nettle

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
Am          Cadd9/B    C        C/D      C/E C/F   Am C/G C/G
Put a penny in     the slot and make an artificial li___ght shine
Fmaj7   Em     Fmaj7  C/G
Leave go  , my golden arm
