Intro: D5

            D5
You know my wandering days are over
          A5                     F#5
Does that mean that I'm getting boring?
         G5
You tell me
                       G5
I'm tired of listening to myself
             G5                                 D5
I'm tired of fixing things for Michael and the rest of them
            D5
You know my bip-bopping days are over
           A5                F#5                    G5
I hung my boots up and then retired from the disco floor

Now the centre of my so called being is
                                                  D5            A5
The space between your bed and wardrobe with the louvre doors (with the louvre doors)

            D5
I said "My celibate days are over"
           A5                     F#5                  G5
You put me straight on the finer points of my speech rehearsed

In the mirror of my steamy bathroom
                                        D5          A5
Where the lino tells a sorry story in a monologue (in a monologue)

D5                  G5
Six months on, the winter's gone
D5                 G5
The disenchanted pony
D5                        G5
Left the town with the circus boy
D5                  G5
The circus boy got lonely
D5                      G5
It's summer, and it's sister song's
D5                      G5
Been written for the lonely
D5                 G5            C5
The circus boy is feeling melancholy

      D5
It's got to be fate that's doing it
         A5               F#5                    G5
A spooky witch in a sexy dress has been bugging me

With the story of the way it should be
                                          D5
With the story of Sebastian and Belle the singer

               D5
You know my my one man band is over
          A5                  F#5               G5
I hit the drum for the final time and I walked away

I saw you in a Japanese restaurant
                                          D5
You were doing it for business men on the piano, Belle
                   A5
You said it was a living Hell
                 F#5
You said that it was Hell

D5                  G5
Six months on, the winter's gone
D5                 G5
The disenchanted pony
D5                        G5
Left the town with the circus boy
D5                  G5
The circus boy got lonely
D5                      G5
It's summer, and it's sister song's
D5                      G5
Been written for the lonely
D5                 G5            C5
The circus boy is feeling melancholy
G5  C5 ...
