[Verse 2]
[D]Elegant [A]clothes,
[Bm]you [G]want to be s[D]een with her
[A]Under your [Bm]tweeds you
[G]sweat like a [D]teenager
[A]Begging you [Bm]to sit for a por[G]trait on the [D]wall
To [A]hang in [Bm]the dark [F#]of some
[G]parliament[D]ary hall
[A]

[Verse 3]
Today is [D]for [G]you[A]
They laid it [D]out for [G]you, for [A]you
There will be [D]six bells a-ringing and and
[G]white women singing for [Bm]you[A]
[D]But this feels so unnatur[G]al, Peter Gabriel,

[A]All of [Bm]the costs [G]and all
of [D]the time it took
[A]Soon it's all [Bm]lines [G]of red
in [D]a leather book
[A]Begging you to [Bm]wait for [G]a minute by the door
[D]Your cre[A]eping fee[Bm]t where
they've nev[G]er been be[D]fore
[A]

[Verse 5]

But this [D]feels so [G]unnatural, [D]Peter [G]Gabriel, [D]too[A]
