Bm E RIFF1 Bm E RIFF1

Call me morbid, call me pale. I've spent six years on your trail

Bm A G E Esus4 E

six long years on your trail.

Bm E RIFF 1 Bm E RIFF 1

Call me morbid, call me pale. I've spent six years on your trail

Bm A G E Esus4 E

six full years of my life on your trail.

Gb G(bar) C(bar) G Gb G(bar)

And if you have five seconds to spare, then I'll tell you the story of my life.

D A Gb Bm G

Sixteen clumsy and shy, I went to London and I

D A Gb

I booked myself in at the Y W C A

A E RIFF 1 A E RIFF 1

I said "i like it here, can I stay?", "i like it here, can I stay?",

Bm A G E Esus4 E

Well, the song just continues from there with the same basic chord sequences,

Not a complex song, but a brilliant one.
