Verse 1:
C#m                 F#
You take your white finger,
A
slide the nail under
                           C#m
the top and bottom buttons of
   F#
my blazer,

relax the fraying wool,
                 A
slacken ties and I'm
                   E
not to look at you in the shoe,
*B
 but the eyes.
         D *
find the eyes


Chorus:
   B
So find me and follow me

through corridors, refectories
    A
and files you must follow, leave this academic factory
         B
you will find me in the matinee,

the dark of the matinee is mine.
    A
its better in the matinee,

the dark of the matinee is mine
        E
yes its mine

Verse 2: same as 1
I time every journey
to bump into you
acidently I
charm you and tell you
of the boys i hate
all the girls i hate
all the words i hate
all the clothes i hate
how I'll never be anything I hate
You smile, mention something that you like,
how you'd have a happy life
if you did the things you like.


Chorus


Middle:
C#m            B
So I'm on BBC2 now,
A
telling Terry Wogan how I made it.
C#m               B
What I made is unclear,
A
but his deference is and his laughter is.
A                               E
My words and smile are so easy now.
    *Bm
Yes, It's easy now.
             D *
Yes its easy now
