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