Dirty Pretty Things fue un grupo de garage rock liderado por Carl Barât.
La formación del grupo se anunció en septiembre de 2005, después de que The Libertines se hubieran separado en 2004 por causa de altercados entre Carl Barât y Pete Doherty. Barât había hecho algunos trabajos con Vertigo Records y ya había revelado que su nuevo proyecto estaba con la discográfica. Didz Hammond anunció la salida de su anterior grupo The Cooper Temple

G You sauntered up and you said how’s tricks G You got me drowned with politics Am we took and talked and lost the plot Am and after that everything seemed fine
G And it’s distinct, how people collide G We drag each other’s worlds down under the tide Am With intoxicated hands Am Cold, cold hearts and well-laid plans
EmGEmG Are you listening? are you listening? A7CD As the days, like the waves, pile up behind you
GAm Ahhh lalala you keep it on GAm Melt my plastic heart and help me move on GAm Why can't i move on?
G How do you escape the grey veils at point range? G Go to a foreign island or a house in Spain, going Am Laladadada Am Oh how I’d kill to go G Wreck the girders and rivets in G A life of buildings and medicines Am Ah we all make the same mistakes Am Our pitfalls pull us together
EmGEmG Are you listening? are you listening? A7CD As the days, like the waves, pile up behind me
GAm Ahhh lalala you keep it on GAm Melt my plastic heart and help me move on AmCB
CDEm We kick this round my bedroom form Bm ???????????????????????????? CDEm But the time, in sight? drift'itaway? EmGEmG Are you listening? are you listening? A7CD As the days, like the waves, decisively pull us under. GAm Ahhh lalala you keep it on GAm Melt my plastic heart and help me move on GAm lalala you keep it on GAm Melt my plastic heart and help me move on
G Friends for life and acquaintances G Romance and great distances Am There’s been so many casualties Am But i cannot wallow with these Ohh no.
