Becoming More Like Alfie Chords by The Divine Comedy

[G] _ _ _ [Am] _ _ Well, you're sure we're there?
_ [A] Right, we can begin.
My name is_ Alfie!
Once, _ _ [G] there was a [Am] time, _ _ _ _ when [F#m] my mind lay on higher [F] _
_ [Em] things. _ _ _ _
And [Am] once, _ _ there was [A] a time, _ _ _ [G] I could [F#m]
find pretty _ [F] words to [Em] sing. _
But _ _ _ _ [Am] now, _ _ [Em] now I [Am] find, _
_ [G] _ it saves [F#m] time to [Em] say what [C] you mean.
[Em] _ _ _
I know it seems _ _ [A] so _ unrefined, _ _ [Em] _
but it's [F#m] time to [F] let off some [Em] steam.
_ _ Oh, come [F] on!
_ Everybody [F#m] _ knows that [Am] no means [Em] yes, just [F] like _ glasses concrete on the [G] _ NHS.
_ _ But [F] the more I [F#m] look through, the [Am] more I [Em] see, _ I'm [F] becoming _ [G] more like _ [C] Alfie.
_ _ _ [Em] _ _ [Am] Once, _ _ there [Em] was [Am] a time, _ _ _ [Em] when a [F#m] kind word could [F] be [Em] enough. _ _ _ _
_ And [Am] once, _ _ [G] there was a [A] time, _ _ [G] I _ could [F#m] _ blindfold [F] myself _ [Em] with love.
_ _ But [A] not now.
_ _ [G] _ [Am] Now I'm resigned _ _ [G] to [F#m] the kind of life [C] I have [Em] reserved _ _ for other _ guys _ _ less smart [A] than I.
[G] You know, the [F#m] kind who will [F] _ always end [Em] up with the girls.
And [F] besides, _ everybody [D] _ knows that [Am] no means [Em] yes, _ just [F] like glasses _ [F#m]
concrete on [G] the _ NHS. _ _
But the [F] more I [F#m] look through, [D] and [Am] the more I _ [Em] see, I'm [F] becoming _ [G] more like [C] _ Alfie.
_ Oh, come [F] on!
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _
_ _ [Em] I'm [F] becoming _ [G] more _ like Alfie. _ _
