by Hank Marvin G A Throw down a line, help a poor boy A G D Who's drowning in the stormy sea A Throw down a line, help a poor boy A G D Who's hanging in a nowhere tree D A Have you got a place for me Am Men are tied in chains of silence F G I look on violence, up, down, left and right G D Is there no hope of light Am The peaceful hand that once caressed me F G Hurts like the rest, because it's turned to stone G D Talons of steel have grown A Throw down a line, help a poor boy A G D Who's drowning in the stormy sea A Throw down a line, help a poor boy A G D Who's hanging in a nowhere tree D A Have you got a place for me Am F G D Yeah, D Am F G D oh help me, yeah A Throw down a line, help a poor boy A G D Who's drowning in the stormy sea A Throw down a line, help a poor boy A G D Who's hanging in a nowhere tree D A Have you got a place for me Am See the moon, it's getting nearer F G But no more clearer than the earth below G D What do we really know Am I feel the stab of pain returning F G Despair is burning in my heart again G D Why don't they see the end, ooooh A Throw down a line, help a poor boy A G D Who's drowning in the stormy sea A Yeah, throw down a line, help a poor boy A G D Who's hanging in a nowhere tree D A Have you got a place for me A Throw down a line, help a poor boy A G D Who's drowning in the stormy sea A Yeah, throw down a line, help a poor boy A G D Who's hanging in a nowhere tree D A Have you got a place for me
