dirty streets like dirty dreams
????????????? for your best friend
plenty of shops with nothing in stock

never seems to end (never seems to end)

a cinema, a bowling green
a culture to preserve
everyone always staring at each other

but no one speaks a word

(is it a) dream or is it ??????????
(does it) always rain or is it sunny, sunny

this is the british way of life
i sallow my dreams like my beer
sunday dinner with the wife now
cos nothing new happens here

i work all week in the company office
don't even know my name
i feel so cold, make me feel old
nothing will ever change

drink with the boys every weekend
to the future and the queen
think i'll marry the girl who lives down the road
and support my local team

They threw a drumstick into the audience when I saw them in 1981-ish and I caught it and handed it to my mate because he wanted it so much. Never heard much from him since then, but the Chords album will ALWAYS be one of my favourites...

Aoki Carreno

I heard in an other chords comment how in 1981 someone got handed a drumstick that had been caught, how that guy was good mate of him and he wishes had stayed in touch..........

Nah, just kiddin

tootstanner

The best band that came out of the revival, stifled by Polydor

Steve

as much as I like The Chords - The Jam were simply better....they just had stronger songs.

Andy Newing

@Steve but for a debut Album what a statement and if only the'd had decent management they could have been massive

AgentOck

So many great bands from that era: Merton Parkas (I've never understood the hate), The Directions, Cigarettes, Small Hours... fantastic music.
