Verse 1:
C C7
Shabby boy’s kept you up all night
Am Em
Oh sentimental drinkers
F Em G
Sing songs that end in fights about fights

Verse 2: use verse 1 chords
And they’ll swear to you that they just can’t help it
That poem in their head
That painting of your bed, it must out

Am Em
Does time stand still when you cross the room
Am Em
Oh surely it must do
Am
When they write a song
Em G
That goes on, and on about you

Verse 3: use verse 1 chords
Does your golden hair, fall in waves
No mention of a spot, tantrum or tooth rot
No not for them

Verse 4: use verse 1 chords
Just pearly smiles and Mona Lisa wiles
For your coterie of stars
Your barrel of charlatans

Chorus 2:
F C
Celebrate, and they will venerate
F C
Hold their heads in the morning glare
F C
For with some faint praise, they will hold you gaze
F C
And dedicate it all to you
F C
Yeah dedicate it all to you

Oh you live you life in black and white
No subtlety for you
No mercy for the muse, it’s true

Verse 6: use verse 1 chords
Come in again number 10, oh your army of typewriters
Your consequence of biters
Won’t last long

Chorus 3: use chorus 1 chords
And life will burden you not
Love will carry on with a thrust
And they’ll swear to you
That they just can’t help it
That poem in their head
That painting of your bed
It must out

Pre-chorus:
C
It must out...

Final Chorus: use chorus 2 chords
Celebrate, and they will venerate
Hold their heads in the morning glare
For with some faint praise
They will hold you gaze
And dedicate it all to you
Yeah dedicate it all to you
Yeah dedicate it all to you
