No 8 in the UK charts in 1974. Slightly different lyrics as taken from a performance on TOTP on youtube also I've added a Bm to round the outro off which generally goes to fade before the last few chords. Intro = Em Verse 1
EmMr Soft turn around and force the Cworld To watch the Dthings you're going Emthrough EmMr Soft believe everything they Ctell you And be Ddamned if there’s a Emthank you AmYou paint everything so Emcruel AmComing on like Mr EmCool AmPaint your face and shut the Ggate F# N/C No-one's coming home till late ooh la ooh key ouch
Verse 2
EmDon’t you know life gets tedious eCnough Without this Dextra grudge to Embear You so slow shift your ideas make your Cmind up In a jiffy let's be Emfair AmWe'll be taking off toEmnight AmTurn off your eyes and shut the Emlight AmYou’re the most you’re so unGreal F# N/C We'd all be dead without your spiel get out the piano
