^C#mYou take your white ^F#finger, ^Aslide the nail under the top and bottom buttons ^C#mof my ^F#blazer,

relax the fraying wool,

slacken ties and ^AI'm not to look at you ^Ein the shoe, *B but the eyes. find the ^Dey

Chorus:

So ^Bfind me and follow me through corridors, refectories and ^Afiles you must follow, leave this academic factory you will ^Bfind me in the matinee,

the dark of the matinee is mine.

its ^Abetter in the matinee, the dark of the matinee is mine yes its ^Emine

Riff 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#mSo I'm on BBC2 ^Bnow, ^Atelling Terry Wogan how I made it. ^C#mWhat I made is unc^Blear, ^Abut his deference is and his laughter is. ^AMy words and smile are so easy n^Eow. *Bm Yes, It's easy now. Yes its easy ^Dno
