Intro
C F (6x)
[Verse 1]
C F
Walking down the streets with the government
C F
Passed the Sisters of Mercy and the tenement
C F
Well, I need a good time just to get myself in line
Dm G7
I got time on my hands to be spent
[Verse 2]
C F
So, I slip and slide us to a sleazy bar
C F
See my friends, shake their hands, ask them how they are
C F
But they're talking to drones, so I turn around and go
Dm G
Get splashed by a passing car
[Chorus]
C F D
G7 C
Isn't it all so perfectly divine
[Instrumental]
C F C F C F C F
[Verse 3]
C F
Well, I dragged my aching feet around the back
C F
I bump into a very special friend
C F
And in no time at all, I'm stalking down the wall
Dm G
The boy have no lick of sense
[Verse 4]
C F
Well, I make it back home without a fall
C F
Lay back laughing on the kitchen wall
C F
Looking at the wife, she finally said, "Enough!"
Dm G
I wonder at the beauty of it all
[Chorus]
C F D
G7 C
Isn't it all so perfectly divine

[Verse 5]
C F
And in the cold, cold morning of the following day
C F
I'm in bed and waiting for the breakfast tray
C F
But all I find instead, is a message by the bed
Dm G
Saying, "Goodbye, baby, I'm away"
[Verse 6]
C F
So I slipped out of bed, put the radio on
C F
An English cup of tea and some fried bacon
C F
Looking at that rain, I'm trying not to complain
Dm G
About the strangest going on and on and on
[Chorus]

Isn't it all so perfectly

Isn't it all so perfectly

Isn't it all so perfectly strange
