Berikut ini lirik dan chord lagu "Town Called Malice" dari The Jam:

 

[Verse 1]

                  F#m
Better stop dreaming of a quiet life,
                                      Em
´Cause it´s the one we´ll never know
            F#m
And quit running for that runaway bus
                                      Em
'Cause those rosy days are few
               G
And stop apologizing,
                   F#m
For the things you´vre never done
                           A
´Causet Time is short and life is cruel

But it´s up to us to change
                                      D
This town called Malice

[Verse 2]

F#m
Rows and rows of disused milk
                                   Em
Floats stand dying in the dairy yard
                     F#m
And a hundred lonely house wifes

                                   Em
Clutch empty milk bottles to their hearts
       G
Hanging out their old love letters
F#m
On the lines to dry
                  A
It´s enough to make you stop believing
When tears come fast and furious
                                          D
In this town called Malice
F#m  Em

[Instrumental]

F#m Em

[Chorus]

G
Struggle after struggle
F#m
Year after year

[Bridge]

                         A
The atmosphere´s a fine blend of ice

I´m almost stone cold dead
                                             D
In this town called Malice
         Db
A whole street´s belief
           Bm
in Sunday´s roast beef
                 Dbm                             Bm
Gets dashed against the Co-Op

[Chorus]

                          A
To either cut down on beer

Or the kid´s new gear
                                                                          D
It´s a big descicion in this town called Malice

Oh, yeah

F#m
The ghost of a steam train
  Em
Echoes down my track
F#m
It´s at the moment bound for nowhere
Em
Just going round and round
             G
Playground kids and creaking swings
F#m
Lost laughter in the breeze
                    A
I could go on for hours and I propably will

But I´d sooner put some joy back in

[Outro]

                                        D
This town called Malice

This town called Malice

This town called Mailce
