  			Verse 
        C                   F 
There's nothing like being across the world 
     C                  F 
that brings out guilt in me 
           C                  F 
'cause I'd rather be lying in bed all day 
     C              F 
than staring at the sea 
    C            F 
The sun rises so early and 
  C                  F 
I know that you're busy 
            C              F 
and there's loads to do outside 
                   C                          F 
but won't you just sit here and get high with me? 
  C                  F              C F 
I know by now you've noticed I'm so lazy 
      C                    F 
and I lose everything I've ever got 
      C                   F 
but I hope you can still like me 


Chorus 
G                  F 
How're you finding Melbourne 
      C                        F 
is it all you thought it would be? 
G                  F 
I don't know leave me alone 
            C            F 
I just keep answering politely 
               G              F 
'Cause there's nothing I hate more than 
C         G 
  fucking small talk 
      F                         C 
but I know it's just the way it goes 
          G      F      C 
being the person no one knows 


Verse 

C F 

  C                 F               C            F 
I probably couldn't know much less about photography 
        C                             F 
And the people in here dress like someone I know 
        C                  F 
who was never very warm to me 
    C                F 
but I'm wide eyed at what you do 
          C              F 
'cause it makes you so happy 
        C                F 
and you take the endless compliments 
   C            F 
so unpretentiously 
C                    F 
I've been giving you a hard time 
  C          F 
for being so soft 
         C               F 
you keep opening the car door for me 
              C                 F 
and I've been telling you to fuck off 


Chorus 
G                  F 
How're you finding Melbourne 
     C                 F 
how about that sun and sea? 
     G                     F 
Yeah it's just great cause where I'm from 
     C                 F 
it's always cold and raining 
           G              F 
Oh there's nothing I hate more than 
C         G 
  fucking small talk 
      F                           C 
But I know that's just the way it goes 
      G    F        C 
being far away from home
