        Am  G  A  D  E  D

[First Part]

      Am  Am/G      F
I can see      very well
          C/E                     D/F#
There's a boat on the reef with a broken back
          F      G    Am
And I can see it very well

( Am  G  A  D  E  D )
( Am  G  A  D  E  D )

[Segunda Parte]

          Am         Am/G         F
There's a joke and I know it very well
            C/E                   D/F#
It's one of those that I told you long ago
        F          G                Am
Take my word I'm a madman don't you know

( Am  G  A  D  E  D )

[Terceira Parte]

       Am         Am/G             F
Once a fool had a good part in the play
        C/E                 D/F#
If it's so would I still be here today
             F           G             Am
It's quite peculiar in a funny sort of way
                F          G          Am     C
They think it's very funny everything I say

[Pre-Chorus]

             G/B           E4     E
Get a load of him he's so insane
                    C    Am   Dm7    F     G    A
You better get your coat dear     it looks like rain

[Chorus]

C/E         D/F#      F        G    Am
We'll come again next Thursday afternoon
C/E         D/F#         F       G    Am
The in-laws hope they'll see you very soon
F7M                                     E4      E
But is it in your conscious that you're after
Am                     C      Dm7    F   G     Am
Another glimpse of the madman across the water

( Am  G  A  D  E  D )
( Am  G  A  D  E  D )
( Am  G  A  D  E  D )

I can see      very well
          C/E                     D/F#
There's a boat on the reef with a broken back
          F      G    Am
And I can see it very well

There's a joke and I know it very well

It's one of those that I told you long ago
        F          G                Am
Take my word I'm a madman don't you know
    F                   G        Am          C
The ground's a long way down but I need more
                 G/B                      E4        E
Is the nightmare black or are the windows painted
                Am   C    Dm7         F    G      A
Will they come again next week can my mind really take it

[Chorus]

C/E         D/F#      F        G    Am
We'll come again next Thursday afternoon
C/E         D/F#         F       G    Am
The in-laws hope they'll see you very soon
F7M                                     E4    E
But is it in your conscious that you're after
Am                     C      Dm7    F   G     Am
Another glimpse of the madman across the water
