Em
Something like Tobacco Road
Living on a lonely road
C
I will pull you out of there
We will go to Finchley Fair

I will buy you feather hat
I will steal a cricket bat
Smash some windows, make a noise
We will run with dirty boys

Chorus:
A#
When the sun goes down
          C
When the sun goes down and the die is cast
          G
When the die is cast and you have no choice
Dm
We will run with dirty boys

We all gone mad, We all want you
Vinny and the boys, we all go through
You got to learn to hold your tongue
This ain't the moon this is burnin' sun

Chorus
