[Intro]
(spoken) A master can highlight the phrases
Sleazy instruments half talked half baked ideas
Dad you didn't say O.K.!
The window was open outside was a spaceship
It took off into the sky leaving a trail of smoke behind it...
(A master can highlight the phrases)
[Verse 1]
Short of the standard was it the sun?
What was rehearsal? Conventional drum?
Not quite a hundred less than a ton
Clearly the time came the plan had begun
[Chorus]
With talk more talk
Chat more chat
Words of a feather are worn in a hat
Talk’n more talk chat’n more chat
I'm happy to do it for you
[Verse 2]
Developed since earlier days at the school
Cheapest sensations were used as a rule
Outstanding to memory major free flow
Bio-degradable look out below for ...
[Bridge 1]
Talk more talk ... oh I love to hear the gentle sound
Of conversation sprinkled around ... a room where I can be at one with you ...
[Chorus]
For talk more talk
Chat more chat
Words of a feather are worn in a hat
Talk’n more talk chat’n more chat
Happy to do it for you

I'm happy to do it for you
I'm happy to do it for you
I'm happy to do it I'm happy to do it

Digital organ finishing stretch
Instrumentation analogue Gretsch
Not quite a thousand lower than that
Possible bargain for listening at that

Words of a feather are worn in a hat
Talk’n more talk chat’n more chat
I’m happy to do it for you

[Verse 1]
| Am7 | A7sus2 |
It's beautiful outside
An old hand gathers wood
Can he see me sitting here?
His mind is somewhere else
[Verse 2]
His friends have flown away
He's left out in the cold
He won't sit by my fire
He says he likes it in the snow
[Bridge]
Where footprints never go
He likes it in the snow (break)
[Verse 3]
Am7 | A7sus2 |
It's getting dark outside
The old hand's going home
Has he someone waiting there?
Or is he living on his own?
[Bridge]
Where footprints never go
He likes it in the snow
[Chorus]
White blanket hiding the traces of tears she didn't see
Oh white blanket covers the memory of all that used to be
All that used to be
[Post-Chorus]
But his heart keeps aching in the same old way
He can't help feeling that she might come back someday

| Am7 | A7sus2 |
It's beautiful outside
A magpie looks for food
The old hand throws a crumb
Do you think he's found a friend?
[Bridge]
Where footprints never go
He likes it in the snow
[Chorus]
White blanket hiding the traces of paths he didn’t take
Oh white blanket covers the memory of moves he didn’t make go now ...
[Chorus]
White blanket hiding the traces of tears he didn't see
Snow white blanket simply covers the memory of all that used to be
[Post-Chorus]
But his heart keeps aching in the same old way
He can't help feeling that she might come back someday

And if you take your love away from me
I'm only going to want it back
C Cdim7 G7sus4
I'll probably pretend I didn't see
But knowing me I'll want you back again and again
'Til the word has lost its mea-ning
And love is all that stays
Only love remains
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
C Cdim7 G7sus4
If you should ever feel that something's wrong
I'm gonna want to put it right
C Cdim7 G7sus4
To bring a happy ending to our song
I'll carry on believing in a love
If your love was to trickle through my fin-gers
What would it leave me with?
Only love remains
(Only love love remains)
Only lo-o-o-ove remains
[Middle 8]
Old enough and strong enough to stretch across the world
Taking the sand inside an oyster
Changing it into a pearl
Making another magic transformation
Find the right boy for the right girl (see tab)
[Verse 3]
C Cdim7 G7sus4
When all our friends have gone and we're alone
There's nothing left to shout about
C Cdim7 G7sus4
Together will explore the great unknown
I'd say we won't be going out tonight
Let tonight be the one that we remem-ber
When love is all that stays
Only love remains
[Coda]
When love ... is all that stays
(Only love love remains)
Only love remains
Only love ... remains

Darling I love you very very very much
And I really am relying on your touch
But with all these people listening in
I don't know where I ought to begin (break)

Maybe we could hit upon a word
Something that the others haven't heard
When you want me to love you (break)
[Chorus]
Just tell me to press
Right there that's it yes
When you feel the stress don’t just stand there
Tell me to press (Press tell me to press!)
[Middle 8]
You can give me what I want I must confess
My body needs attention my mind is in mess
Oklahoma was never like this

Before we both get ready to explode

Well the rest of my life lay in front of me I was pedalling down the road
When I saw Nell Gwynne and her oranges and I said "I'll have one of those!"
[Chorus]
She said Move over busker don't bang your drum
Move over busker your time will come
[Verse 2]
Well I was hanging around for a miracle struggling with a rhyme
When I saw Mae West in a sweaty vest and I said "I'll come up and see you sometime."

She said "Move over busker that's not my style
Your chance is coming in a little while."

He said "Well yes I am but she's calling me would you excuse us for a while?"

Yeah move over busker your day is done
Move over busker my time has come

I'm telling you to move over busker (come on come on)

Well I'm sick and tired of sitting back and listening to all of your clap-trap (Clap-trap)
If you could get me to take the rap I guarantee you'd leave me with a backslap (Backslap)

Even when you kick me off the edge of the world you're still gonna hear me say
[Chorus]
What the hell gives you the right to tell me what to do with my life?
Especially when you made a mess of every chance you had at success?
Look at you just look at you
I said I'm angry just looking at you - shouting down shouting down ...
[Post-Chorus]
Shouting down again Mahama shouting down again
Shouting down again Mahama shouting down again

I can't begin to tell you all the reasons why you're making me crazy (Crazy)
I've got so many answers like you're stupid like you're crooked like you're lazy (Lazy)
Hit me with your left hit me with your right kick me from the top to the toe
Even when you chew me up and spit me out I'm still gonna want to know
[Chorus]
What the hell gives you the right to tell me what to do with my life?
Especially when you made a mess of every chance you had at success?
Look at you just look at you
I said I'm angry just looking at you - looking shouting oh

[Verse 1]
Ears twitch like a dog
Breaking eggs in a dish
Do not mock me when I say
This is not a lie
[Chorus]
Doo do do do ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
[Verse 2]
It's a funny thing half serious
With our hands on our ears
Living dreams with mouths ajar
Wide awake we go to sleep
[Chorus]
However absurd however absurd it may seem
However absurd however absurd it may seem
[Middle 8]
Something special between us
When we made love the game was over
I couldn't say the words
Words wouldn't get my feelings through
So I keep talking to you
[Chorus]
However absurd however absurd it may seem
However absurd however absurd it may seem
[Verse 3]
Custom made dinosaurs
Too late now for a change
Everything is under the sun
But nothing is for keeps
[Chorus]
However absurd however absurd it may seem
However absurd however absurd that may seem
[Chorus]
However absurd however absurd it may seem
However absurd however absurd it may seem
[Chorus]
However absurd however absurd it may see-eem yeah
However absurd however absurd however absurd it may seem

However absurd however absurd it may seem
However absurd however absurd it may seem

Do it now write away

[Chorus]
It's not true it's not true it's not true

[Verse]
You don't feel right when I come on strong
Don't get it wrong
I wait all night but you wont be long
Don't get it wrong
[Bridge]
Hear me right
I love you from the bottom of my heart
You make the answer bright
You touch me in a way that no-one else could ever do
If you'll only love me I'll love you
[Verse]
And if you're tempted to tell a lie
Don't get it wrong
Well it breaks my heart when I see you cry
Don't get it wrong
[Bridge]
Get it right
The brightest light that's shining in the skies
Is shining from your eyes
I love you in a way that no-one else could ever do
If you'll only love me I'll love you
[Middle 8]
Im often accused of giving to little
It's got me confused I’m split down the middle
Conflicting reviews of our life coming in
It's tough on a tightrope
Yes it's tough on a tightrope
[Solo]
| | | | |
| | | | |
[Bridge]
Hear me right
I love you from the bottom of my heart
You make the picture bright
You touch me in a way that no-one else could ever do
If you'll only love me I'll love you
You touch me in a way that no-one else could ever do
If you'll only love me I'll love you
[Outro]
Tough on a tightrope
Tough on a tightrope
