Stereophonics - Street of Orange Light: chords

B
I tried to do it all
I found I had to fall
I tried the church on Sundays
Got up for work on Mondays
I've climbed through it all

Chorus:
E          F#          B
Great expectations subside
E        F#        B
Lay my ambitions aside
E         F#        B
All I can do is survive
       E
And untie all the mysteries
    F#           B
In heart and in mind

Skateboards and snowballs
First time I threw my fist
Paint walls with band names
Broken bottle scarred my wrist
First kiss in plaster cast

Now the doorway's boarded up
Memory of my mother saying goodbye
As she walked right off
To work on the factory floor

I failed to understand
I'm all but just a man
I'm skin and bone and muscle
I can crumble, I can buckle
I can stand and I can fall

Chorus

Deckchairs and mixtapes
And sand beneath my toes
Haircuts and trainers
I wish would wash ashore
Rain watching, doorsteps

In sleeping bags at night
Change channel with a pool stick
On our street of orange light
And it feels so right
