A7M                                                               E7M
Anthony walked to his death because he thought he'd never feel this way again
A7M                                                                    E7M
If he goes back to the house then things would go from bad to worse what could he do?
A7M                                                       E7M
He wants to remember things exactly as he left them on that funny day
A7M
And if there is something else beyond, he isn't scared because
     F#m                                 ( G#m )
It's bound to be less boring than today
A                              A7M
Bound to be less boring than tomorrow

Hilary went to her death because she couldn't think of anything to say

Everybody thought that she was boring so they never listened anyway

Nobody was really saying anything of interest she fell asleep

She was into S&M and bible studies

Not everyone's cup of tea she would admit to me
A                                   
A cup of tea she would admit to no one
F#m                                 ( G#m )
A cup of tea she would admit to me
A                                       A7M
A cup of tea she would admit to no one

Hilary went to the Catholic Church because she wanted information

The vicar or whatever took her to one side and gave her confirmation

Saint Theresa's calling her the church up on the hill is looking lovely

But it didn't interest the only things she wants to know is

How and why and when and where to go

How and why and when and where to follow

How and why and when and where to go
A
How and why and when and where to follow
       C#m
But if you are feeling sinister
   B
Go off and see a minister
      A                                                          E     A - E - A (etc/)
He'll try in vain to take away the pain of being a hopeless unbeliever


E                                                     A
When she got back her spirituality was thrown into confusion
E                                                         A
So she got a special deal on renting from the man at Rediffusion
E                                                              A
Look at me I'm on TV It makes up for the shortcomings of being poor
E
Now I'm in a million pieces picked up for deliberation
F#m                             ( G#m )
By the people listening at home
A
By the people watching on the telly

By the people listening at home

By the people watching on the telly

But if you are feeling sinister

Go off and see a minister

He'll try in vain to take away the pain of being a hopeless unbeliever
         A                E
La la la la la la la...
         A
La la la la la la la

But if you are feelin sinister

Go off and see a minister
    A
The chances are you'll probably feel better

If you stay and play with yourself

End on 
E
