[Verse]
            Asus2
A punctured bicycle
     C                G
On a hillside desolate
                   D          Am      C  D
Will nature make a man of me yet?
             G
When in this charming car
     D   Am        C  D
This charming man

    G
Why pamper life's complexity

When the leather runs smooth
       D             Am    C  D
On the passenger seat?


[Pre-Chorus]
(D)        G
I would go out tonight
                    D         Am     C  D
But I haven't got a stitch to wear
     G                                       D               Am     C  D
This man said "It's gruesome that someone so handsome should care"


[Chorus]

    A jumped up pantry boy
    Asus4          Cmaj7
Who never knew his place
   Dsus2 Em
He said "return the ring"

   Cmaj7         Dsus2        Em
He knows so much about these things
   Cmaj7         Dsus2        Em
He knows so much about these things


[Pre-Chorus]
N.C.       G
I would go out tonight
                     D        Am     C  D
But I haven't got a stitch to wear
     G                                       D               Am     C  D
This man said "It's gruesome that someone so handsome should care"
