Verse:
           Gmaj7           E7
   Call me morbid, call me pale
              Gmaj7             E7
   I've spent six years on your trail
   Bm  A6   G
   Six long years
           E7     A
   On your trail


           Gmaj7           E7
   Call me morbid, call me pale
              Gmaj7             E7
   I've spent six years on your trail

   Six full years of my life on your trail

Chorus:
              Gb                        G  D  A
   And if you have five seconds to spare
             Gb                       G    C  G6
   Then I'll tell you the story of my life :
   D                   A
   Sixteen, clumsy and shy
Gb                       Bm G
   I went to London and I
     D                       A     Gbm  Gb
   I booked myself in at the Y ... W.C.A.
               Gmaj7                E7
   I said : "I like it here - can I stay ?
     Gmaj7                E7
   I like it here - can I stay ?
   Bm            A6      G
   Do you have a vacancy
                   E7    A
   For a Back-scrubber?"

Verse:
           Gmaj7            E7
   She was left behind, and sour
           Gmaj7                E7
   And she wrote to me, equally dour
                      Bm
   She said : "In the days when you were
   A          G
   Hopelessly poor
                            E7 A
   I just liked you more..."

Chorus:
              Gb                        G  D  A
   And if you have five seconds to spare
             Gb                       G    C  G6

   I like it here - can I stay ?
   Bm            A6      G
   Do you have a vacancy

   I've spent too long on your trail
   Bm  A   G
   Far too long
                E7
   Chasing your tail
         A
   Oh ...
