Belle and Sebastian

^Cm I was choking on a co ^Bb rnflake
You said “ ^Gm Have some toast ins ^Ab tead”
^Cm I was sleeping maybe th ^Bb ree hours
You said “ ^Gm You should get to b ^Ab ed”
^Cm I was waiting at the ch ^Bb urch door\
For the ^Gm minister to sh ^Ab ow
^Cm I was looking at the n ^Bb ew year
You said “ ^Gm Walk before you cr ^Ab awl ^Gm ” ^Fm
Cm I was feeling like a ^Bb loser
You said “ ^Gm Hey, you've still got ^Ab me”
^Cm I was feeling pretty l ^Bb onely
You said “You ^Gm wanted to be fr ^Ab ee”
^Cm I was looking for a g ^Bb ood time
You said “L ^Gm et the good times s ^Ab tart”
^Cm With a quiver of your ey ^Bb elid
You took on s ^Gm omeone else's ^Ab part
But what about ^Eb me
^Ab I don't really s ^Eb ee
^Ab How things will ^Eb improve
If all you w ^Ab ant is to stay
^Cm Maybe I'm a little g ^Bb reedy
You said “ ^Gm Think before you sp ^Ab eak”
^Cm Sometimes I'm a little ^Bb seedy
You said “E ^Gm veryone is we ^Ab ak”
^Cm Now I feel a little be ^Bb tter
Is there s ^Gm omething I can d ^Ab o?
^Cm But I never heard the a ^Bb nswer
I n ^Gm ever had a c ^Ab lue
But what about ^Eb me
^Ab I don't really s ^Eb ee
^Ab How things will i ^Eb mprove
If all you wa ^Ab nt is to stay
The l ^Fm ights are out
In the h ^Gm ouse tonight
And I cr ^Ab eep around
And I'm c ^Eb reeping to your h ^Bb ead
All you wa ^Ab nted to stay loo ^Cm se.
^Cm There's a little echo c ^Bb alling
Like a m ^Gm iner trapped in ^Ab side
^Cm If I tell her of this m ^Bb oment
She will in ^Gm me doubts conf ^Ab ide
^Cm And she's on me like a bl ^Bb anket
Like a s ^Gm talk of wilting gr ^Ab ass
^Cm I'm not sure about her mot ^Bb ives
I'm not s ^Gm ure about her pa ^Ab st ^{Gm Fm
Cm} But my faith is like a b ^Bb ullet
My bel ^Gm ief is like a b ^Ab olt
^Cm The only thing that lets ^Bb me sleep at night
A little car ^Gm riage of the s ^Ab oul
^Cm If it starts a little bl ^Bb eaker
Then the y ^Gm ear may yet be g ^Ab old
^Cm Happiness is not for ke ^Bb eping
Happ ^Gm iness is not my g ^Ab oal
So what about m ^Eb e
^Ab I don't really se ^Eb e
^Ab How things will im ^Eb prove
If all you ^Ab want is to stay lo ^Eb ose
^Ab But what about th ^Eb em
^Ab You play mother h ^Eb en
To a g ^Ab aggle of gangling you ^Eb th
If all you w ^Ab ant is to stay
The l ^Fm ights are out
In the h ^Gm ouse tonight
And I c ^Ab reep around
And I'm cr ^Eb eeping to your h ^Bb ead
All you wa ^Ab nted to stay
^Cm I was living through the sec ^Gm ond
My c ^Ab omposure was a m ^Eb ess
I was m ^Fm iles from tende ^Cm rness
It was d ^Ab ark outside, the d ^Ab ay it was l ^Gm ying in pi ^Bb eces
^Cm Everything is flat and d ^Gm reary
I couldn't c ^Ab are what's in the ne ^Eb ws
Telev ^Fm ision is the b ^Cm lues
Tele ^Ab vision is hys ^Ab terical la ^Gm ughter of peo ^Bb ple
And I k ^Ab now it could be ^Bb me
I'm always asking for ^Cm more, ^Bb more, m ^Ab ore, m ^Gm ore
I keep ru ^Ab nning round in cir ^Eb cles
I keep lo ^Ab oking for a do ^Eb orway
I'm going to n ^Ab eed two lives
To fo ^Ab llow the pa ^Gm ths I've been ta ^Bb king
