Intro: A5

A5
I'll bet good money
F#5
I'll bet some beautiful money
E5
That we could agree
             D5  
With anybody here to disagree

A5
That we could get up from the table
F#5
And nobody would know
E5
You could leave your mouth talking
             D5
And follow me out the window

A5
I've idled here as long as I can
F#5
I've taken my entertainment like a man
          E5
I'm all ribbons, scissors, flowers
    D5  
And shaking hands

       A5
I'm a name and a black book
    F#5
Attached to a face
        E5
At the back of your memory's
        D5
Window display

             A5
It's on the tip of your tongue, I'm sure
             D5 
But I must away

A5
Must be good to know people

Who know so many people
         A5         F#5     
Must be good to be somebody,
A5           F#5
Good to be somebody
D5
They know

        A5          F#5           A5         F#5
And the fastest of friends, the fastest of friends
D5
I'm sure, we'll all be
    A5          F#5           A5         F#5      
The fastest of friends, the fastest of friends
                D5
I'm sure we'll remain

A5
Die here in our deck chairs
F#5                
Surrounded by beautiful shoes
E5
Or hide out with me
D5
Down at the bottom of the swimming pool

A5
Climb the tower to the bell curve
F#5
That cuts and cuts so clean
E5
Or shoot out sharpened arrows at
D5
Their family trees

A5
Cause I know no quicker way, dear
F#5
To the shiny gates of hell
E5
Than a room full of handsome devils
D5
Comparing everything to everything else

        A5          F#5           A5         F#5
And the fastest of friends, the fastest of friends
D5
I'm sure, we'll all be
    A5          F#5           A5         F#5      
The fastest of friends, the fastest of friends
                D5
I'm sure we'll remain
