Intro: D F#m Em F#m x2
DThe temptatioF#mn is all to greEmat
And now its gF#mone and its all to lDate
I tried and I F#mtried but I never appEmlied
Any of the moF#mrals that I wish I hDad
(Same structure for verses)
You wait 50 whole weeks
Through all of your hides and all of your seeks
When the time finally arrives
It dawns on me that your attention derives
FrDom the girlfriend that you left at home
SiDtting in the living room all alone
YouD hate the suF#mntan
And you cant sDtand to be arF#mound the short sleeved Dman
And the gaggle of F#mgirls that are singing too lEmoud
Because they F#mdo my head in
DYou hate the taF#mttoos and you cant hanDdle the skinheads
The oF#mnes who cannot hDandle their booze
F#mThey're making you scared to beEm proud F#m
EmWhy's that not allowed F#m
(Same chord pattern)
If you bide your time and you stand there and you wait in line
It wont be long before her sarong is lying on your bedroom floor
But what about the girlfriend that you left at home
Sitting in the living room all alone
You hate the suntan
And you cant stand to be around the short sleeved man
And the groups of girls who are singing dead loud
Because they do my head in
You hate the tattoos and you cant handle the skinheads
The ones who cannot handle their booze
They're making you scared to be proud
From the girlfriend that you left at home
Sitting in the living room all alone
You hate the suntan
And you cant stand to be around the short sleeved man
And the gaggle of girls who are singing too loud
Because they do my head in
You hate the tattoos and you cant handle the skinheads
The ones who cannot handle their booze
And they're making you scared to be proud
Why is that not allowed
