   INTRO: Gmaj7  E7


	   Gmaj7	   E7
   Call me morbid, call me pale

              Gmaj7	        E7
   I've spent six years on your trail

   Bm  A6   G
   Six long years

           E7     A
   On your trail


	   Gmaj7           E7
   Call me morbid, call me pale

	      Gmaj7             E7
   I've spent six years on your trail

   Bm       A6          G		 E7  A
   Six full years of my life on your trail



	      F#			G  D  A
   And if you have five seconds to spare

	     F#			      G    C  G6
   Then I'll tell you the story of my life :

   D		       A
   Sixteen, clumsy and shy

F#			 Bm G
   I went to London and I

     D                       A     F#m  F#
   I booked myself in at the Y ... W.C.A.

               Gmaj7                E7
   I said : "I like it here - can I stay ?

     Gmaj7                E7
   I like it here - can I stay ?

   Bm            A6      G
   Do you have a vacancy

                   E7    A
   For a Back-scrubber?"

   She was left behind, and sour
   And she wrote to me, equally dour
   She said : "In the days when you were
   Hopelessly poor
   I just liked you more..."

   And if you have five seconds to spare
   Then I'll tell you the story of my life :
   Sixteen, clumsy and shy
   I went to London and I
   I booked myself in at the Y ... W.C.A.
   I said : "I like it here - can I stay ?
   I like it here - can I stay ?
   And do you have a vacancy
   For a Back-scrubber ?"


   Call me morbid, call me pale
   I've spent too long on your trail
   Far too long
   Chasing your tail
   Oh ...

     
              F#                       G  D  A
   And if you have five seconds to spare

             F#                       G    C  G6
   Then I'll tell you the story of my life :

   D                   A
   Sixteen, clumsy and shy

F#                     Bm     G  
   That's the story of my life

   D                   A
   Sixteen, clumsy and shy

       F#m         F#    
   The story of my life

              Gmaj7          E7
   That's the story of my life

Gmaj7                      E7
   That's the story of my life

Gmaj7                     E7
   That's the story of my life

Gmaj7                 E7..... 
   The story of my life

(repeat Gmaj7/E7 until end)
   That's the story of my life
   That's the story of my life
   That's the story of my life
   That's the story of my life
   That's the story of my life
   That's the story ...
