[Verse 1]
A                                        G
The Woman in blue, she's asking for revenge
A                                                        G
The man in white that's you, says he has no friends
A                                            G
The river is swollen up with, rusty cans
A                                                    E
And the trees are burning in your promised land

[Chorus]
D                                                A
And there are no letters in the mailbox
D                                                     A
And there are no grapes upon the vine
D                                                     A
And there are no chocolates in the boxes anymore
                            E                           A
And there are no diamonds in the mine

[Verse 2]
A                                                          G
Well you tell me that your lover has a broken limb
A                                                            G
You say your kinda restless now and it's on account of him
A                                                         G
Well I saw the man in question it was just the other night
A                                                     E
He was eating up a lady where the lions and christians fight

[Chorus]
D                                               A
And there are no letters in the mailbox
D                                                     A
And there are no grapes upon the vine
D                                                      A
And there are no chocolates in the boxes anymore
                             E                          A
And there are no diamonds in the mine

[Verse 3]
A                                         G
There is no comfort in the covens of the witch
A                                                     G
Some very clever doctor went and sterilised the bitch
A                                                         G
And the only man of energy, yes the revolution's pride
A                                                        E
He trained a hundred women just to kill an unborn child

[Chorus]
D                                                 A
And there are no letters in your mailbox
D                                                      A
And there are no grapes upon your vine
D                                                      A
And there are no chocolates in your boxes anymore
                             E                          A
And there are no diamonds in your mine
