Verse 3: (use verse 1 chords)
Cindy writes of kerosene and broken bottles
Says the troubles were a part of someones childhood
But she cant get past the point where someones dying
Its pretty minor
A pithy liner should sort it out
But he wont die
he just mucks about, oh its so hard
Verse 4: (use verse 1 chords)
Now weve broken out the gin, it helps her thinking
And given into sin, were breathing deeply
But somethings on her mind
A chapter stirring, her mind is whirling
And off she trots
To tap her keys to the top, oh shes off
Chorus:
Oh Mighty engine, of good intention
Youre purring softly beside me
Grinding gently inside me
Tapping totally madly...for you
