	until you've seen the stars
                       F#5
	reflect in the reservoirs
      B                            G#5
	and you have never been in love
                              D#5

              F#5
	behind the Home For The Blind

	and you're standing on our streets


Chorus:
                             B

	the first of the gang to die / oh my

	over smashed human bone

	such a silly boy
                       B5
	Hector was the first of the gang

	with a gun in his hand
              D#5

                       C#5           F#5
	the first Lost Lad under the sod

	and the very poor 
                                C#5    F#5
	and he stole all hearts away / away
