Stereophonics

In two of the verses there is a part in which the hammer-on and pull-off effect takes action just like in the Intro section. These parts are marked by an asterisk () next to the chord (listen to the track to hear what I'm on about).

Verse 1:

We all face the sa[C]me way

Still it takes al[Am]l day

Take a look to my[F/E] left

Pick out the worst and th[C]e best

C ()
She paints her lip

Greasy an[Am]d thick

Another mirror st[F/E]are

Dsus2 C ()
And she's going where?


Verse 2:

(Same chords and rhythm as Verse 1)

Another office affair

To kill an unborn scare?

You talk dirty to a priest

Makes you human at least

Is she running away

To start a brand new day?

Or she going home?

Why's she driving alone?


Chorus 1:

Is [F/E]anyone [Dsus2]going [C]anywhere?

[F/E]Everyone's [Dsus2]gotta be [C]somewhere[Am][F/E][C]


Verse 3:

(Same chords and rhythm as Verses 1 and 2)

She got a body in the boot
Or just bags full of food?

Those are models legs

But are they womens are they mens?

She shouts down the phone

Missed a payment on the loan

She gotta be above the rest

Keeping up with the best


Chorus 2:

Is [F/E]anyone [Dsus2]going [C]anywhere?

[F/E]Everyone's [Dsus2]gotta be [C]somewhere[Am][F/E][C]


Bridge:

G F/E

[F/E] [C]

Verse 4:

(Same chords and rhythm as Verses 1, 2 and 3)

Waits tables for a crook?

Wrote a hard back book?

You teach kids how to read?

Or sell your body on the street?

A nurse without a job?

Another uptown snob?

But have I got you all wrong?


Chorus 3:

Is [F/E]anyone [Dsus2]going [C]anywhere?

Is [F/E]anyone [Dsus2]going [C]anywhere?

Is [F/E]anyone [Dsus2]going [C]anywhere?

[F/E]Everyone's [Dsus2]gotta be [C]somewhere[Am][F/E][C]
