Intro
F A# (6x)
[Verse 1]
F A#
Walking down the streets with the government
F A#
Passed the Sisters of Mercy and the tenement
F A#
Well, I need a good time just to get myself in line
Gm C7
I got time on my hands to be spent
[Verse 2]
F A#
So, I slip and slide us to a sleazy bar
F A#
See my friends, shake their hands, ask them how they are
F A#
But they're talking to drones, so I turn around and go
Gm C
Get splashed by a passing car
[Chorus]
F A# G
C7 F
Isn't it all so perfectly divine
[Instrumental]
F A# F A# F A# F A#
[Verse 3]
F A#
Well, I dragged my aching feet around the back
F A#
I bump into a very special friend
F A#
And in no time at all, I'm stalking down the wall
Gm C
The boy have no lick of sense
[Verse 4]
F A#
Well, I make it back home without a fall
F A#
Lay back laughing on the kitchen wall
F A#
Looking at the wife, she finally said, "Enough!"
Gm C
I wonder at the beauty of it all
[Chorus]
F A# G
C7 F
Isn't it all so perfectly divine
[Instrumental]
F A# F A# F A# F A#
[Verse 5]
F A#
And in the cold, cold morning of the following day
F A#
I'm in bed and waiting for the breakfast tray
F A#
But all I find instead, is a message by the bed
Gm C
Saying, "Goodbye, baby, I'm away"
[Verse 6]
F A#
So I slipped out of bed, put the radio on
F A#
An English cup of tea and some fried bacon
F A#
Looking at that rain, I'm trying not to complain
Gm C
About the strangest going on and on and on
[Chorus]
F A# G
C7
Isn't it all so perfectly
[Chorus]
F A# G
C7
Isn't it all so perfectly
[Chorus]
F A# G
C7 F
Isn't it all so perfectly strange
[Outro]
