Intro
F# B (6x)
[Verse 1]
F# B
Walking down the streets with the government
F# B
Passed the Sisters of Mercy and the tenement
F# B
Well, I need a good time just to get myself in line
G#m C#7
I got time on my hands to be spent
[Verse 2]
F# B
So, I slip and slide us to a sleazy bar
F# B
See my friends, shake their hands, ask them how they are
F# B
But they're talking to drones, so I turn around and go
G#m C#
Get splashed by a passing car
[Chorus]
F# B G#
C#7 F#
Isn't it all so perfectly divine
[Instrumental]
F# B F# B F# B F# B
[Verse 3]
F# B
Well, I dragged my aching feet around the back
F# B
I bump into a very special friend
F# B
And in no time at all, I'm stalking down the wall
G#m C#
The boy have no lick of sense
[Verse 4]
F# B
Well, I make it back home without a fall
F# B
Lay back laughing on the kitchen wall
F# B
Looking at the wife, she finally said, "Enough!"
G#m C#
I wonder at the beauty of it all
[Chorus]
F# B G#
C#7 F#
Isn't it all so perfectly divine
[Instrumental]
F# B F# B F# B F# B
[Verse 5]
F# B
And in the cold, cold morning of the following day
F# B
I'm in bed and waiting for the breakfast tray
F# B
But all I find instead, is a message by the bed
G#m C#
Saying, "Goodbye, baby, I'm away"
[Verse 6]
F# B
So I slipped out of bed, put the radio on
F# B
An English cup of tea and some fried bacon
F# B
Looking at that rain, I'm trying not to complain
G#m C#
About the strangest going on and on and on
[Chorus]
F# B G#
C#7
Isn't it all so perfectly
[Chorus]
F# B G#
C#7
Isn't it all so perfectly
[Chorus]
F# B G#
C#7 F#
Isn't it all so perfectly strange
[Outro]
