CIGARETTES Key of Eb Capo 3rd

You can say prince Edward's queer, but you can't smoke that cigarette in here

You can steal a baby from a pram, put broken glass in Waitrose jam
You can urinate in your best friends beer but you can't smoke that cigarette in here
                F             Fm   C                      F          Fm    c
BRIDGE:Same old story everywhere and it's beyond a joke

                Even lepers get treated better than us folks who like to smoke

You can lace your neighbours tea with acid, speed and ecstasy
But tobacco is taboo my dear you can't smoke that cigarette in here

You can blaspheme you can curse take a joy-ride in a hearse
Worship satan no one will care but you can't smoke that cigarette in here

BRIDGE:Same old story everywhere and its getting out of hand
                Incest is o.k. they say but they want smoking banned

You can let it all hang out; you can wave your magic wand about
Hang naked from the chandelier but you can't smoke that cigarette in here

INST AS VERSE:

You can make a grown man weep, be intimate with flocks of sheep
Be loud. uncouth and insincere but you can't smoke that cigarette in here

BRIDGE:Same old story everywhere and what chance have we got
                They'd like to see us nicotine fiends taken outside and shot

When I die don't you weep for me I'll be happy down in purgatory
'Cos up in heaven all you'll ever hear is,'You can't smoke that cigarette in here'
