[D] [E] First things first, I have [Bm] a happy [G] secret
[D] The next bit's [Em] worse, I [Bm] intend [A] to keep it that [G]
way
[D]
Can't [Em] remember [F#m] the last word [G] spoken
[D] I got [A] some [Em] mail I didn't [D] open
It's [A] an [F#m] unread letter [G] type
I know I've [D] found the lesson [G] for the day
[D] What are phone mails [G]
for?
[D] [Em]
[Bm] [G]
[D] [Em]
[Bm] [G]
[D] When it's not [Em] raining all these [Bm] streets are filled with [G] students
[D] But you won't catch me [Em] complaining
It's a [Bm] nuisance, it's [F#m] useless, [G] I know
A storm [F#m]
rolls across the [G] suburbs
And [D] the streets are as empty as [G] the cupboards
For the [A]
boy most likely and [G] the girl [Em] most [D] lovely
Given [Em] time, I could get [G] tired of [Bm] all this [G] sleeping
[D] The days I've thrown [E] away and the [Bm] hours that I am [A] keeping
[G]
[D] But for a [Em] while I'm [G] fairly happy feeling hopeless
A [D] summer salt and a [E] winter [Bm] coat
I didn't [A]
notice a [G] thing
And [D] I say it like it's [G] unrehearsed
But I said it in the bathroom first
[A] The boy most likely and [G] the girl most lovely
[D] [G]
[D] [G]
[D] [G]
[D] [A] [D]
[G] [D]
[G] [D]
[G] [D]
[A] The [D] hedges and the [G] hibiscus
[D] As soon as she's [G] outside
She says I'd [D] grew up in the [G] tidiest [D] of towns
Past the park where [G] my parents met
[D] Resigning herself to modern [G]
architecture
[D] Don't let the [G]
barstools [D] get you down
