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