Intro
E A (6x)
[Verse 1]
E A
Walking down the streets with the government
E A
Passed the Sisters of Mercy and the tenement
E A
Well, I need a good time just to get myself in line
F#m B7
I got time on my hands to be spent
[Verse 2]
E A
So, I slip and slide us to a sleazy bar
E A
See my friends, shake their hands, ask them how they are
E A
But they're talking to drones, so I turn around and go
F#m B
Get splashed by a passing car
[Chorus]
E A F#
B7 E
Isn't it all so perfectly divine
[Instrumental]
E A E A E A E A
[Verse 3]
E A
Well, I dragged my aching feet around the back
E A
I bump into a very special friend
E A
And in no time at all, I'm stalking down the wall
F#m B
The boy have no lick of sense
[Verse 4]
E A
Well, I make it back home without a fall
E A
Lay back laughing on the kitchen wall
E A
Looking at the wife, she finally said, "Enough!"
F#m B
I wonder at the beauty of it all
[Chorus]
E A F#
B7 E
Isn't it all so perfectly divine
[Instrumental]
E A E A E A E A
[Verse 5]
E A
And in the cold, cold morning of the following day
E A
I'm in bed and waiting for the breakfast tray
E A
But all I find instead, is a message by the bed
F#m B
Saying, "Goodbye, baby, I'm away"
[Verse 6]
E A
So I slipped out of bed, put the radio on
E A
An English cup of tea and some fried bacon
E A
Looking at that rain, I'm trying not to complain
F#m B
About the strangest going on and on and on
[Chorus]
E A F#
B7
Isn't it all so perfectly
[Chorus]
E A F#
B7
Isn't it all so perfectly
[Chorus]
E A F#
B7 E
Isn't it all so perfectly strange
[Outro]
