This song is off of the "Books" EP. It has a lot of instruments playing a lot of different things, but here are the main chords, and the bass tabs can be found on this site too. Enjoy!
F#mSay what you want and leave your shyness home, Do what you want and write a little poem. Leave it for her and live another day, And you should *leave* it for her the girl around the way.
F#mWrite down a list of things you want to do, Leave it in work because you want to live a little, Pick up the girl in someone's borrowed mini, Take her to dinner, use her boyfriend's money.
AHey lady, put the C#phone down, Cancel F#mall operations, Tell your fDriends to cool it Your Acover's blown I want to C#see you alone Cancel F#mall operations Tell your Dfriends to cool it, Your Acover's blown C#
F#mPlanning a break is such a tricky thing Because you move to the country, she comes back again And then you move to the city but she goes abroad Is she telling you something, is she getting bored?
F#mI'll make a rough plan to sleep around, I'm in a rut I need a change, I'm a lazy rat if I am honest My bold change of tack will fade out with the summer I've got no appetite and all the girls are bummers

(Continues with G, B, Em, and C until the last verse) Hey lady, meet my mum and dad You're a strange aberration In this land of potted plants and boxlike houses Where the girls like mouses Breathe a long sigh of resignation You resign your self to keep on growing Like the seeds you're sowing You're a strange apparition In this land of grammar schools and gala days The ladies set in their ways You had a long conversation With a kid next door He's a little slow But in your favour, it shows Cancel all operations Tell your friends to move out to the sticks.
EmListen lady, leave the Bboy home Cancel Call operations Tell your Bfriends there's more to you than Emthis.
BAM, it's a lot of fun on a piano. For any other tricky B&S I would hit up this site: http://www.missprint.org/sinister/chords.html It didn't have this song, and a few others, but it's got the majority. If you would like to request another B&S song you can't figure out, I'd be happy to help! liamhedefine@live.com
