Intro: A C#m G# D A E 

A                                                  C#m 
I'm thinking about the images Stored in my memory bank 
     A                                      C#m 
I'm lost inside a paradise My mind goes all blank 
    G#             D      A        
And on the floor a leopard skin 
           E            D    
Ooo she's all legs and lips 
      G#            C#m     Bm   
I've one ear on the kitchen door 
                  A     E         
Where dad was preparing drinks 

F#m  D                C#m     E         
My hormones have gone haywire 
F#m  D            C#m           E 
My temperature is right off the gauge 
F#m  D           A             E 
I'm so scared my mum will find out 
         F#m         D       C   G/B  D 
What I'm doing so I quickly turn the page 
A                                                  C#m 
I'm thinking about the images That I had inside my head 
A                                           C#m 
There's not much to imagine To that centre spread 
    G#          D      A   
She looks at me seductively 
       E             D   
Ooo I feel something new 
        G#            C#m      Bm 
There's steam coming out of my ears 
                   A     E     
My toes curl inside of my shoes 

F#m  D                C#m     E         
My hormones have gone haywire 
F#m  D            C#m           E 
My temperature is right off the gauge 
F#m  D           A             E 
I'm so scared my mum will find out 
         F#m         D       C   G/B  D   A 
What I'm doing so I quickly turn the page 

Em             Bm 
In a covert operation 
                    Em 
I head towards the shops 
             Bm 
I had a fascination 
                      Dm 
That I didn't want to stop 
                  C      
Inside a comic a magazine 
                   Cm    
Then I walked out of the door 
    B                   E 
And swiftly made my way home

A                                                  C#m 
Those dangerous excursions drew the man out from  the boy 
    G#        D          A            E               D 
The women I encountered there Became good friends and stuck 
   G#           C#m       Bm                 A     E 
Together in the pages to see A teenage boy thunderstruck
