[Intro]
------
It alternates between D and Dsus2, listen to the song for the rhythm and correct timing.
is the same little riff that happens quite a bit throughout the song, mostly in the verses.

Y' know my wandering days are over
A F#m
Does that mean that I'm getting boring?

You tell me
I'm tired of listening to myself, yeah

I'm tired of fixing things for Michael and the rest of them
[Verse 2]
--------
D
Y' know my bip-bopping days are over

The space between your bed and wardrobe with the louvre doors
A
(With the louvre doors)
[Verse 3]
--------
D
Y' know my celibate days are over
A F#m G
You put me straight on the finer points of my speech rehearsed
In the mirror of my steamy bathroom
D
Where the lino tells a sorry story in a monologue
A
(In a monologue)
[Chorus]
-------
D G
Six months on, the winter's gone
D G
The disenchanted pony
D G
Left the town with the circus boy

Been written for the lonely

The circus boy is feeling melancholy
[Bridge]

[Verse 4]

It's got to be fate that's doing it
A F#m G
A spooky witch in a sexy dress has been bugging me
With the story of the way it should be
D
With the story of Sebastian and Belle the singer, yeah
[Verse 5]
--------
D
Y' know my one man band is over
A F#m G
I hit the drum for the final time and I walked away
I saw you in Japanese restaurant

You were doing it for business men on the piano, Belle

You said it was a living Hell
G
You said you were in Hell
[Chorus 2]
