(don't quote me on the lyrics. but i think they're right.)



Intro:  G


      G                    Em7    D
There's so much time for holding hands,
           G                  Em7            D
When you're sleeping with your man, in the ground,
               C               Em7  
So while we're awake lets keep joking,
            C                 Em7
While we're awake we're sleep walking,
            C               G           D
When we're awake the more i learn about you,



      G                  Em7    D
There's so much time for lying around,
            G                   Em7         D
When you're sleeping with your man, in the ground,
              C                 Em7
So while we're awake lets keep singing,
            C                         Em7
While we're awake keep the telephone ringing,
            C                G          D
When we're awake the more i learn about you,



     Em7            G
The Magic, that is you.
     Em7            G
The Magic, that is you.



                G           Em7             D  
Like others, a memory box above your mothers bed,
            G                      Em7          D
Inside she wrote the first words that you ever said,
                C                Em7
I got my whole life here in the time i'm smoking on,
 C                     Em7               G               D
back of news i have a fun time, y'know a sick and dying whale,
              G           D
this is the story of our tale,
            Am            C
this is the story of our tale,


  Am   C   (instrumental bit with no guitar)


               C                 Em7 
I got my whole life here in the time i'm smoking on,
C                      Em7                G             D
back of news i have a fun time, y'know a sick and dying whale,
              G           D
this is the story of our tale, 
             Am              C        Am
you're not a sick and dying whale,
             C            Am              (end on G).     
this is the story of our tale.
