Intro: Gmaj7  E7

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
   Bm       A6          G              E7  A
   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
   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
   Call me morbid, call me pale
              Gmaj7            E7
   I've spent too long on your trail
   Bm  A   G
   Far too long
                E7
   Chasing your tail
         A
   Oh ...

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
   That's the story of my life
   D                   A
   Sixteen, clumsy and shy
       Gbm         Gb
   The story of my life
              Gmaj7          E7
   That's the story of my life
Gmaj7                      E7
   That's the story of my life
Gmaj7                     E7
   That's the story of my life
Gmaj7                 E7.....
   The story of my life

Outro: Gmaj7
   That's the story of my life
   That's the story of my life
   That's the story of my life
   That's the story of my life
   That's the story of my life
   That's the story ...
