Tom: Am

Intro: C, Am, G, F

Verse 1:
C                            Am
I, feel like a sun without a sky.
                               G
Feel like a socket, without a eye.
                             F
Feel like a house, but not a home.
                      C
Just a dog, without a bone.

C                            Am
How can you wink, without an eye?
                              G
Like a grievance, but with no cry.
                                   F
House not a home, and I don't know why.
                      C
Just a pig, without a sty.

(Solo bit) C, Am, G, F

C                                Am
 Feel like a sail, but I've been slashed.
                            G
A vigilante that's been unmasked.
                            F
Feel like a raft, but not a ship, sinking on the surface.

C                             Am                        G

Together again, woooh. (x2-take off woooh)

Verse 3:
C                                   Am
  Have you ever felt like a story untold?
                               G
A catwalk model that's growing old?
                              F
Hard to imagine what's more important the rainbow the pot or the gold?

Pre-chorus:
   C                       Am                          G
I know that before when you answered the door, I told you and the world to
F
leave me. (x2)

Middle:
G                                           Am
 Thinkin' about what it was, that made you change.
                                   F
Was it the quarks the dosh or the dames?
                          G     F G
When did I become so derranged?

G                                                   F
And think of the time, when blood ran through your vains.
                                    Fm?
When she looked as sweet as a candy cane.
                                 G                                     F
As she looked through the window pane, through the window pane and the rain.
                                     G
I'll say it again and again and the best lasts forver the best lasts forever...

Chorus:
    C           G     Am   F
The best lasts forever, ooooh. (x2)

F
leave me. (x2)

Pre-Chorus 2:
     C                                        Am
I've been on my knees in so many streets, and not just them ones in Dundee.
  G                                        F
I fell on my face, been a legless disgrace, ten thousand laughin' at me, but still...

Chorus:
