Put The Book Back On The Shelf

by Belle And Sebastian
Belle And Sebastian

Biography:

Belle and Sebastian is a band from Glasgow. Led by guitarist/vocalist Stuart Murdoch, the seven-piece band has an intimate, majestic sound that is equal parts folk-rock and '60s pop. Murdoch has a gift not only for whimsy and surrealism, but also for odd, unsettling lyrical detail which keeps the songs grounded in a tangible reality.

Based in Glasgow, Scotland, Belle and Sebastian released their first two albums in 1996: Tigermilk, recorded over three days

G D
Sebastian you're in a mess
Am
You had a dream they called you king of all the hipsters
Em D
is it true or are you still the queen
G D
Like getting blood out of a stone
Am
The city left you lost and gone
Em
D
You came to dance but there's no poignancy when they all leave you
Cmaj7 Gmaj7
standing alone
Cmaj7 Gmaj7
standing alone
Cmaj7 Gmaj7
Cmaj7 D# D

G D
The wider issues of the day
Am
just pass you by you're gonna pay
Em D
for looking at the floor when people talk to you
G D
You wrote a book about yourself
Am
The people left it on the shelf

You'll write another one
Em D Cmaj7 Gmaj7

Now you've got a story that's worth talking about
Cmaj7 Gmaj7
talking about
Cmaj7 Gmaj7
talking about
Cmaj7 D# D
(trumpet solo):
Am Em Am Em Bm F#m Bm F#m
Bm Am Bm Am Cmaj7
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
Are you happy with yourself
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
Are you talking to yourself
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
Are you happy with yourself
Gmaj7
Put the book back on the shelf
G D
I've seen the company you keep
Am
You're on the sofa hidden deep
Em D
While on the telly Sid James speaks you like God
G D
You're always looking for a sign
Am
But boy you blow it every time
Em
You hear a voice begin to speak
D Cmaj7 Gmaj7
You ignore it and go softly to sleep
Cmaj7 Gmaj7
softly to sleep
Cmaj7 Gmaj7
softly to sleep
Cmaj7 Gmaj7
Cmaj7
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
Are you happy with yourself
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
Are you happy with yourself
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
Are you happy with yourself
