The Smiths were a rock band which formed in 1982 in Manchester, England, United Kingdom. The band consisted of Morrissey (vocals, lyrics), Johnny Marr (guitar, music), Mike Joyce (drums) and Andy Rourke (bass). Hugely influential, The Smiths lasted all of five years from 1982 to 1987, releasing during this period four studio albums (The Smiths, Meat Is Murder, The Queen Is Dead and Strangeways, Here We Come) and three compilation albums (Hatful Of Hollow, The World Won't Listen and Louder Than Bombs).

INTRO: GAG#mG B Farewell to this land's cheerless marches hemmed in like a boar between arches her very Lowness with her head in a sling DE I'm truly sorry but it sounds like a wonderful thing B I say Charles don't you ever crave to appear on the front of the Daily Mail DEGAG#mG dressed in your Mother's bridal veil?
B And so I checked all the registered historical facts and I was shocked into shame to discover how I'm the 18th pale descendent DE of some old queen or other B Oh has the world changed, or have I changed? oh has the world changed, or have I changed? some nine year old tough who peddles drugs DEGAG#mG I swear to God, I swear I never even knew what drugs were B So I broke into the Palace with a sponge and a rusty spanner she said: "Eh, I know you, and you cannot sing" DE I said: "that's nothing - you should hear me play piano" B We can go for a walk where it's quiet and dry and talk about precious things but when you are tied to your mother's apron DEGAG#mG no-one talks about castration B We can go for a walk where it's quiet and dry and talk about precious things like love and law and poverty DE these are the things that kill me
(same as above) We can go for a walk where it's quiet and dry and talk about precious things but the rain that flattens my hair these are the things that kill me B Passed the pub that saps your body and the church who'll snatch your money D the Queen is dead, boys E and it's so lonely on a limb
Pass the pub that wrecks your body and the church, all they want is your money the Queen is dead, boys and it's so lonely on a limb BDE Life is very long, when you're lonely life is very long, when you're lonely life is very long, when you're lonely life is very long, when you're lonely
