You take your white B
finger
F#m
Slide the nail under
the top and bottom buttons
C#m
of my B
blazer
F#m
Relax the fraying wool,
slacken ties and I'm…
A
not to look at you E
in the shoe,
but the Bm
eyes…
D
find the eyes!

R: So Bm
find me and follow me
through corridors, refectories
and D
files you must follow, leave
this academic factory
you will Bm
find me in the matinée,
the dark of the matinée.
It's D
better in the matinée,
the dark of the matinée
is A
mine… yes it's C#m

2. C#m
I time every B
journey,
F#m
to bump into you, accidentally I
C#m
charm you and B
tell you
F#m
of the boys I hate all the girls I hate,
A
all the words I hate all the clothes I hate
F#m
how I'll never be anything I hate
A
You smile, mention something E
that you like,
oh how you'd have a Bm
happy life
if you did the D
things you like
I time every B
journey,
F#m
to bump into you, accidentally I
C#m
charm you and B
tell you
F#m
of the boys I hate all the girls I hate,
A
all the words I hate all the clothes I hate
F#m
how I'll never be anything I hate
A
You smile, mention something E
that you like,
oh how you'd have a Bm
happy life
if you did the D
things you like
R: So find me and follow me…
3. C#m
So I'm on BBCB
2 now,
F#m
telling Terry Wogan how I made it and…
C#m
what I made is unB
clear now
F#m
But his deference is and his laughter is
A
My words and smile are so E
easy now
Yes, it's Bm
easy now,
yes, it's D
easy now!
So I'm on BBCB
2 now,
F#m
telling Terry Wogan how I made it and…
C#m
what I made is unB
clear now
F#m
But his deference is and his laughter is
A
My words and smile are so E
easy now
Yes, it's Bm
easy now,
yes, it's D
easy now!
