[Intro]
E   C#m   F#m   B

[Verse 1]
                           E       
You used to get it in your fishnets
                            C#m        
Now you only get it in your night dress
                  B                  F#m     
Discarded all the naughty nights for niceness
                        B     
Landed in a very common crisis
                           E         
Everything's in order in a black hole
                               C#m        
Nothing seems as pretty as the past though
                   B            F#m  
That Bloody Mary's lacking in Tabasco
                               B      
Remember when you used to be a rascal?

[Chorus]
                   F#m
Oh, the boy's a slag
                    B
The best you ever had
                    F#m
The best you ever had
            B              F#m   
Is just a memory and those dreams
                  B     
But as daft as they seem
              F#m   
As daft as they seem
                 A               
My love when you dream them up...

[Verse 2]
                                  E       
Flicking through a little book of sex tips
                                 C#m     
Remember when the boys were all electric?
               B                F#m   
Now when she's told she's gonna get it
                                      B      
I'm guessing that she'd rather just forget it
                             E     
Clinging to not getting sentimental
                              C#m       
Said she wasn't going but she went still
                B             F#m   
Likes her gentlemen not to be gentle
N.C.
Was it a Mecca dauber or a betting pencil?

[Chorus]
                F#m 
Oh, the boy's a slag
                  B  
The best you ever had
                  F#m
The best you ever had
          B                F#m   
Is just a memory and those dreams
                    B   
But as daft as they seem
              F#m   
As daft as they seem
                 B            
My love when you dream them up

[Bridge]
   G#m               C#m 
Oh Flo, where did you go?
             F#m 
Where did you go?
             G#m    F#m
Where did you go? Woah

[Instrumental]
E   C#m   F#m   B

[Chorus]
E        C#m 
Falling about
    F#m                        B   
You took a left off Last Laugh Lane
E                      C#m   
You were just sounding it out
    F#m                     B   
But you're not coming back again
E        C#m 
Falling about
    F#m                        B   
You took a left off Last Laugh Lane
            E             C#m
You were just sounding it out
    F#m                     B   
But you're not coming back again

[Outro]
                           E       
You used to get it in your fishnets
                            C#m        
Now you only get it in your night dress
                                     F#m     
Discarded all the naughty nights for niceness
                        B     
Landed in a very common crisis
                           E         
Everything's in order in a black hole
                               C#m        
Nothing seems as pretty as the past though
                                F#m  
That Bloody Mary's lacking in Tabasco
                              B      C#m
Remember when he used to be a rascal?
