[E]
[A] [Gbm]
[A] [Db] Who are the Smiths?
[Cm] We are the [F] Smiths.
Marcy, Johnny Marr, Mike Joyce and Andy Rourke.
The Smiths.
[Em] [D] Why do we call ourselves the Smiths?
Why do we call ourselves the Smiths?
We call ourselves the Smiths because you decided we were called the Smiths.
And I decided [G] because it was the most [C] ordinary name.
And I think it's time that the ordinary name was changed.
[Bb] [Bb] [Gbm]
[B] I thought just singing was just such a [Eb] wonderful outlet.
And just to say your own words [E] is really quite wonderful.
[A] [Bm]
[Eb] What [A] else is there to be?
[Ab] [G]
Why do you hold flowers when you [N] sing?
Why do I hold flowers?
I think flowers are very beautiful things.
Very nice and innocent things.
They don't harm anybody.
They don't burp.
And they don't do anything ugly.
So why not?
It's better, I think, than [Ab] waving socks about.
[G] [Db]
[Eb] [Ebm] [G]
I would go out [Db] tonight, but I haven't got a [Abm] stitch to wear.
[G]
[Eb]
[G] [Gm] This
[G] charming man is about being charming, which so very few people are these days.
I think it's nice to instill these words into people's brains.
And who knows, it might rub off on a new [Dm] generation.
[C] We don't have to be violent or ugly or arrogant.
Just be charming.
[E] And what a pleasant world that would [Gbm] be.
[Abm] [D] [Gbm]

[Dbm] [A]
[Gb] [Ab] [Dbm]
[A] [Ab]
[Gb] [E]
Well, when I [G] was nine, I was very
[Eb] [E]
Lots of the words I write are about
And in a strange way, it's like revenge on all those horrible teachers that made life
miserable for me.
So I think it really should be a lesson to all present-day teachers that they really
have to treat their pupils with maximum care.
Because who knows, in the future, all the pupils of the world can get their revolt
