Biography:
The Fratellis is an alternative rock band from Glasgow, Scotland who took their name from the villains in the film "The Goonies" (although, by coincidence, Barry's mother's maiden name is in fact Fratelli). The band consisted of lead vocalist and guitarist Jon Fratelli (real name John Lawler), bass guitarist Barry Fratelli (real name Barry Wallace), and drummer, backing vocalist, occasional guitarist and banjo player Mince Fratelli (real name Gordon McRory).

G Em X4
[Verse]
G Em G Em G Em X2
Pardon me sugar I'm the man underneath your thumb
G Em G Em G Em X2
But I won't take your violence and I won't chew your bubblegum
G Em G Em G Em X2
White heat, indiscreet, any day now obsolete
G Em
Though you've seen your best days
G Em
I would still walk down your empty street
C D G Em X2
Well you look like salvation but you taste like a refugee
C
Well you say you got no soul but you look like you do to me
G
If I was the melody you were the symphony
C D
Honey loving you took the very best of me
G
I don't need your red wine covered sympathy
C D
Just another punchline in your stand up tragedy

[Verse]
G Em
Well I've been pushing up daisies

G Em
I came saw broke your law
G Em G Em X2
Any day now I'll withdraw
G Em G Em G Em X2
I chewed on your intentions just to dislocate my jaw
C D G Em X2
Well if you saw me broken won't you put me out my misery

Well I don't do handsome and you don't do sympathy
[Chorus]

Wrong from the get go, let it slide
G C C7
Tell them what they don't know
D C C7
Sing them praises far and wide
G C C7 G C C7
Eat those peaches, ring them bells
G C C7
Mama don't know what she preaches
D
But she sure looks dignified
Well she sure looks dignified
Well she sure looks dignified
[Chorus]
G
If I was the melody you were the symphony
C D
Honey loving you took the very best of me
G
I don't need your red wine covered sympathy
C D
Just another punchline in your stand up tragedy
G
Take my hungry guarantee
C D
I could be your slave if you'd only beg for me
G
I don't need your red wine covered sympathy
C
Just another punchline in your
