Why you going with your friends?

[Pre-Chorus]

F#         B
Crack the bones in your back
             F#
It feels so good to be back

F#            C#
Why don't you dance some more?

You wanna talk about your friends
F#                  C#
First floor in the fete, oh yeah

[Pre-Chorus]

F#          B
He wears a Union Jack
            F#
He wants to take us all back

[Chorus]

       N.C.        F#
He's coming over
          B             F#
Wants to talk about the war
         N.C.         F#
The way he's going on
                  B               F#
You'd think he'd fought them off alone
 N.C.             F#
He's coming over
        B       E7
He's a horrible man
      A
He'll never buy a drink
          F#
But he'll let you know he can
F#
So signing

[Verse]

F#                      C#
Oh, you're going to the races?
F#               C#
Cruising down the telephone lines
F#                 C#
Gold buckle on your belt
       F#           C#
Go on, buckle up your belt

[Pre-Chorus]

F#     B
He's a buttoned-down shirt
         F#
Spilling tea from the cup

[Chorus]

        NC      F#
He's coming over
        B            F#
And the runners are down
     N.C.            F#
The silks are the turf
               B          F#
You know it's curtains for now
         N.C.   F#
He's coming over
          B              E7
Want stop talk about his house
    A
The way he's going on
              F#
You'd think he built it all himself

So signing

C#
La-la-la-la-la-la

[Bridge]

F#                C#
Well, I fear no evil
    F#         C#
And I feel no harm
      F#           C#
Well, you fear none either
      F#         C#
Well, I see no charm
    F#          C#
And I fear no evil
    F#          C#
And I feel no harm
      F#            B
Well, you fear none either
    B
But I see no charm
        F#
We don't want him on the farm

[Chorus]

          N.C.  F#
He's coming over
           B                  F#
Yeah, you think you're nearly clear
    N.C.      F#
But he's just not finished talking
         B              F#
He's just coming up for air
       N.C.   F#
I'm glazing over
    B           E7
The windows are aglow
     A
The fire's blazing nicely
            F#
But there's nobody at home

C#                      F#
The ship is unsinkable
C#    F#
