Del Amitri Move Away Jimmy Blue Lyrics

This another Song of the 1989 album "waking hours" by Del Amitri.
Beside "this side of morning" and "nothing ever happens" it is one
of my favourites. I figured it out by ear, so it might be different
from the record. I post it anyway...
Some hints for the notation:
1. === hold note
2. ==3== triplet
MOVE AWAY JIMMY BLUE J. Currie/I. Harvie
Intro:
==3== ==3== ==3==
|--------o------0-----o-----|----7--7===================|
|------2---2------2-----2---|----8--8===================|
==3== ==3== ==3==
|--------o------0-----o-----|----7--7===================|
|------2---2------2-----2---|----8--8===================|
A struck match faded like a nervous laugh Beyond the
==3== ==3==
halo of a naked bulb And your
==3== ==3==
low voice mingles with your other half's
==3== ==3==
Schoolfriends in secondhand clothes.
==3==
|--------0------0-----------|----7--7===================|
|------2---2-------2---2----|----8--8===================|
Eventually your world will shrink within four walls Or
==3== ==3==
neglected steps from stolen stereos So move
==3== ==3==
(strum from now on)
away Jimmy Blue
Before your small, small town turns around
and swallows you.
A drunk mother was the clue
Before the legendary things that you do
Behind the carnival tent with mud on your face
behind the old glue factory too
So move away Jimmy Blue
before your small, small town turns around
and swallows you.
Wet feet visit the same old places
Finding nothing new
It's a binful of tissues from made-up faces
in a townfull of nothing to do
A lovematch with the moon
in a layby, while insects hum
and you got put in the darkness of a womans womb
Jimmy Blue
So move away, yeh
So move away, yeh
So move away Jimmy Blue
before your small, small town turns around
and swallows
==3== ==3== ==3== ==3==
(play while fading...)
That's it. Hope you like it... Juergen
