Oohoooooohoh Dm Dm/F [Verse]
Dm London City, far from pretty Dm/F Two, zero, zero, five Dm A lady down in Paddington Dm/F Is fighting just to stay alive Dm Rhythmic beeps and blood stained sheets Dm/F Our lady weeps, she's tired and frail Dm To set the scene, we must rewind Dm/F G6 The hands of time for Violet's tale Dm Am Dm Am [Verse]
Dm Violet was a silent girl Am Grew up with violent starts Dm Her mother was a drinker Am And her father was a bastard Dm Every night he'd tuck her tight Am But never left the room Dm I'll spare you of the things he did Am N.C. Im sure her mother knew [Verse]
Dm Violet was a silent girl Bb A She moved out at sixteen Dm A semi-detached council flat Bb A Paid for by a welfare-scheme Dm Packing shelves at Tesco's Bb A Stacking jars like pickled bricks Dm She met a boy named Stevie Bb N.C. And he was a little prick [Verse]
Dm Violet was a silent girl Am And Violet she fell fast Dm See Stevie was a wrongun Am But he sure knew how to charm her Dm Every night he'd tuck her tight Am But never left the room Dm History repeats itself Am Gm He'd paint her black and blue and ah Am Gm She never stood a chance Am G F Em Dm The de-vil comes to dance [Interlude]
N.C. "Violet, why you always so quiet?" N.C. On her bedroom door and he's irate N.C. He's been drinking and
Smoking he's up late N.C. And he stands by her bedside,
She shakes N.C. But her eyes stay shut N.C. "You f*cking sl*t!
I know you're up!" N.C. And he pinches her eyelids
And folds them up N.C. "Violet, why you lying to me Violet?" N.C. She stays silent,
Things turn violent N.C. Thats the sound of his fists when
Dm
They fall like a crashing pilot Hit like hailstones,
Am
One to the collar bone,
Full force, full blown Dm Blood splat, bone crack,
Knick-knack-paddy-whack Am N.C. One to the jaw and a tooth spat, detached N.C. Fist connects and disconnects the bone N.C. A quick deflect to misdirect the blow N.C. But nonetheless his
Punches met her throat N.C. Such a mess, he's left
Her bruised and broke N.C. "Violet!? Why you always so
Silent Violet? N.C. Why you such a little liar Violet? N.C. Do you think
I want to do this Violet?" N.C. In character she stays silent N.C. "Well say something
Violet!" - silence N.C. "f*cking say something
Violet!" - silence N.C. "Wait, say something Violet" N.C. Not one word,
She stays quiet Dm Dm/F Dm Dm/F [Verse]
Dm London City, far from pretty Dm/F Two, zero, zero, five Dm A lady down in Paddington Dm/F Is fighting just to stay alive Dm The doctor in a state of shock Dm/F Saw something here so very wrong Dm See Violet, she was pregnant Dm/F Poor Violet, she was nine months gone [Verse]
Dm Turning to the doctor F G Violet broke her silence and she cried Dm If I'm to die right here tonight F G Please let my baby stay alive Dm The doctor soon regained composure F G Called the surgeon to come in Dm As Violet's world turned to black F The curtains closed,
G
The lights went dim in [Verse]
Dm London City, far from pretty Bb A Two zero zero five Dm A lady down in Paddington F G Just lost the fight to stay alive Dm A tragedy, or miracle F G It happened on these very streets Dm Two twins are lying side by side N.C. A girl named Jenny N.C. And a boy named Screech
