Tone: [Em]
Verse 1:
Our [Em]story, it starts
Right[A]Right at the end of the [C]life of poor Jenny
Clocked [B]out like Big Ben
Dear [Em]Screech, dear boy, where[A]where did he go?
He [C]melted into the black [B7]night, just like snow
Verse 2:
[E5]Patrick, man, let me in, please [Gb5]open the door
I think I [E5]xxxxed up, Patrick, really xxxxed up, [Gb5]man, I'm not sure
I got [E5]crazy, left this lady lying [Gb5]still on the floor
I think I [E5]killed her, Patrick, come on man, I [B5]can't knock no more
Verse 3:
But [Em]Screech kept on knocking, 'till his [Gmaj7]knuckles became sore
But [Em]there's no sign of Patrick, down at [Gmaj7]number 54
No [Em]refuge for our villain, for the [Gmaj7]bitter hands of fate
Have [Em]something far more sinister in mind,[Baug]mind, that does await
Bridge:
Hello?
Hey babe, you in?
Nah, nothing really, I'm just a bit tired
Listen, can I swing around yours for a few moments?
I just really miss you, babe
What the xxxx do you me0an you're busy?
You xxxxing xxxxx, for xxxx's sake
Verse 4:
[Em]Sirens sound approaching like a [Gmaj7]Banshee in the night
The [Em]shrill cry of justice cutting [Gmaj7]like the sharpest knife
But [Em]Screech was never one to run, not [Gmaj7]one to miss a fight
One [Em]hand upon his blade, he turned to [Baug]face the blue light
Verse 5:
[Em]"Come on then, you xxxxing cunts, lets [G]xxxxing have you [G]then
I am [Em]Screech, I'm the boss here, I'm the [G]ender of man[G]man
You think that [Em]uniform you're wearing means that [G]you own these streets[G]streets
Well these are [Em]my xxxxing streets and they call me xxxxing Screech"[B7]Screech"
Verse 6:
[Em]Richard was an officer, who [G]stood at 6 foot [Gb]3
Working [Em]London on the night shift, what he [G]didn't think he'd [Gb]see
Was a [Em]boy running at him, like an [G]animal pos[Gb]possessed
With no [B7]time to hesitate, he fired four bullets at Screech's chest
Verse 7:
Our [Em7]story it ends, [A]right at the start
Young [C7]Screech and poor Jenny, lying [B7]one street apart
An [Em7]officer shaken, by the [A]boy that he claimed
Two [C7]bodies lay lifeless, and [B7]it's such a shame
It's such a shame[Eadd9]shame
