This is the best song by the Bluetones (for the moment!). This is just
a rough

later...
Hope you love it! Feel free to correct it...

Em G A
Tonight I'm wound tighter than a watchspring
C B7 Em
Tonight you owe my patience quite a debt
Em G A
Toniiiiiihihihight we're not gonna solve anything
C B7 Em
I might say something that we both regret

Chorus:-
G(single strum) C
And now the pressures on, the heat is rising
Em G A
The time has come to stop apologising
C
'cos when the skies are clear
B7(single strum) Riff
The threat of rain is always here with you

Verse
Tonight the geese are flying
And everything you say is a call to arms
Tonight there's something in the air
Don't come too close and you'll come to no harm

(chorus)
G C
And now the pressure's on the heat is rising
Em G A
The time has come to stop apologising
C
With all thats gone before
B7
My motive's never felt so pure
Em
And now my heart's beset
G A or C?
With 28 carat gold regrets
C
And when the skies go clear
B7
The threat of rain is always here with you
