Labi Siffre
Cannock Chase

[Verse 1]
Sitting in the back seat of my car
With my arms round my guitar
And the rain falls
From the roof of the world

Nothing around, just the trees and the ground
There's a bird in a tree singing a song
Just for me
Just for me

[Chorus 1]
Ahh, da-da-da
La-da-da, la-da-da
La-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da-daaa
Ahh, da-da-aa
La-da-da, da-da-da
La-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da-daaa

[Verse 2]
I've been down for oh so long
It seemed like my soul was dead and gone
But it's alright
I'm back in the fight
I thought my day would never come
Maybe it won't but I'll have fun
And I'll hold tight
'Cause that way it might
La-da-da da-da

[Chorus 2]
Ahh, da-da-da
La-da-da, da-da-da
La-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da-daaa

[Bridge]
Oh, I know I'll be down again with my old friend
This friendship never ends
The blues is always the same
The blues is always the same

[Verse 3]
Well I don't know just where I am
I'm a nowhere man, I'm a Desperate Dan
But I'll find out
Maybe if I shout

Give me your hand I'll give you my mind
It's a fair exchange if you're deaf, dumb and blind
And we're sold out
Well that's what it's all about
La-da-da da-da
[Chorus 3]
Ahh, da-da-da
La-da-da, la-da-da
La-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da-daaa
Ahh, da-da-da
La-da-da, da-da-da
La-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da-daaa
Ahh
