[Verse 1]
             C       D                      C    D
My head was stuck in  the cat flap on the door
              C       D                C       D
Where I could see her  walking on the kitchen floor
            Em
Down on my knees
              Am
Just like a dog
             Am             F#m      B
Begging for scraps that she said she hadn't got

[Verse 2]
             C      D                 C    D
She took her pen she poked me in the eye
               C     D                 C       D
As through the lock I looked to see my world inside
             Em
I kicked and swore
              Am
Void of all brain
             Am     F#m        B
I couldn't see that I was the one to blame


[Chorus]
      Em
Cold shoulder

Like a slaughtered cow in a butcher's fridge
      Am
Cold shoulder

She had laid the plans where we built our bridge
      C
To a better life
      B7
Cold shoulder

[Verse 3]
             C       D                    C     D
I had been chased by a hairbrush that she threw
                 C        D                 C     D
Life was blurred when the hand of fate came into view
              Em
It smacked my face
        Am
I was released
            Am         F#m    B
I came back home where life became a feast


[Chorus]
      Em
Cold shoulder

Like a slaughtered cow in a butcher's fridge
      Am
Cold shoulder

She had laid the plans where we built our bridge
      C
To a better life
      B7
Cold shoulder

[Verse 3]
              Em
It smacked my face
        Am
I was released
            Am         F#m    B
I came back home where life became a feast


[Chorus]
      Em
Cold shoulder

Like a slaughtered cow in a butcher's fridge
      Am
Cold shoulder

She had laid the plans where we built our bridge
      C
To a better life
      B7
Cold shoulder

Cold shoulder
C             D      C      D
  Then I fell over
C      D         C        D
          Into a bush
