VERSE 1 

Bb           Am              D7 
In the morning there's a buzz of flies 

Between the pillows and the skies 
G  
That beg into your eyes 

Through the looking glass 
C                        B, 
And between your thighs 

VERSE 2 
Bb           Am          D7         
A talking cats no great surprise 
                                G 
as we go straight down the rabbit hole 
C 
there we go 



F                         D7 
I've been meaning to tell you 
G                        C 
A sentimental thing that occurred to me 
F                     D7 
I've been waiting to show you 
G  
A set of photographs

 
           C                         B 
That'll make you laugh and smile 



VERSE 3 
Bb            Am               D7               
You might wanna stick one on his nose 
                                   G 
Around his teeth, down this drug hole of him 
    C 
They've nowhere else to go 


BREAK: 
Bb  , Am , D7  ,G , C 


VERSE 
Bb         Am         D7 
Scottish fiver up his noise 
G                   C 
haven't seen his face in oh so long ago 
Bb            Am            D7 
i was there to sing but i didn't dare 
G                   C 
his lips are blue his eyes are closed 

 

F                         D7 
I've been meaning to tell you

G 
no more shouting  
C 
no more pouting for you
