Tom: G
E A
The wind's whistling
C Bm
My mind's twisting
E A
I was making myself the usual cup of tea
C A
When the doorbell strangely rang
[Verse 1]
D A G
D A G
D A
Because I've been up here for a while
G
I'm starting to feel the monotony of the tower block
D A
I'm not so manic now
G
I can uphold the weight of those neighbours
D A
And she's lifting and throwing to the wall
G
The post-natal harmonies of youth
D A
When this younger man, twenty-five
G
Advantageously took away her pride
[Chorus]
E A
The wind's whistling
C Bm
My mind's twisting
E A
I was making myself the usual cup of tea
C A
When the doorbell strangely rang
[Verse 2]
D A
I staggered shaking slowly to the door
G
Through the frosted panel I could see you
D A
Your intentions as a salesman truly cush
G
You endeavoured as a psycho just to push
D A
And whilst lifting and throwing to the wall
G
My puny structure of an ageing OAP
D A
No reason why you chose my flat
G
Breathing deeply in a trance
[Chorus]
E A
The wind's whistling
C Bm
My mind's twisting
E A
I was making myself the usual cup of tea
C A
When the doorbell strangely rang
[Bridge]
D A
I'm not so manic now (not so manic now)
G
I'm not so manic now (not so manic now)
D A
I'm not so manic now (not so manic now)
G
I'm not so manic now (not so manic now)
[Verse 3]
D A
Because I've been up here for a while
G
I'm starting to feel the monotony of the tower block
D A
I'm not so manic now
G
I can uphold the weight of those neighbours
D A
And she's lifting and throwing to the wall
G
The post-natal harmonies of youth
D A
When this younger man, twenty-five
G
Advantageously took away her pride
[Outro]
D A
I'm not so manic now
G
I'm not so manic now
D A
I'm not so manic now
G
I'm not so manic now
G
Not so manic now
D A
I'm not so manic now
G
I'm not so manic now
D A
I'm not so manic now
G
I'm not so manic now
G
Not so manic now
