[Intro 1]
[A][D][G][D][C][D]
[Bm][Em][D][Asus4]
[G][D]

[Verse 1]
All the people at this [G]party
They've got a lot [D]of style
They've got stamps of
many coun[C]tries
They've got passport [D]smiles
Some are [Bm]friendly
Some are cutting
Some [Em]are watching it from the wings
Some [D]are standing in the centre
Giving to [Asus4]get somet[A]hing[D]

[Verse 2]
Photo Beauty gets [D]attention
[G]Then her eye paint's running dow[D]n
She's got a rose in her teeth
And a [C]lampshade crown
[Bm]One minute she's so happy
Then she's [Em]cry ing on
someone's knee
Saying, [D]laughing and crying
You know it's [A]the same re[Asus4]lease
[D]I

[Verse 3]
[A]told you [D]when [A]I met you
I [D]was [G]crazy
Cry for us [D]all, Beauty
Cry for Eddie in the [C]corner
Thinking he's nobody
And [Bm]Jack behind his joker
And stone-cold Grace
[Em]Grace behind her fan
And [D]me in my frightened silence
Thinking I [Asus4]don't understand
[D]I

[Verse 4]
[A]feel like I'm [D]sleep[G]ing
Can [D]you wake me?
You seem to have a broader
sensibility
I'm just [Bm]living on nerves
and feelings
[Em]With a weak and a lazy mind
And [D]coming to people's [A]parties
Fumbling [Asus4]deaf dumb and blind
[D]I

[Verse 5]
wish I had [A]more sense of hu[D]mor
[G]Keeping [D]the sadness at bay
Throwing the lightness [C]on
these things
Laughing it [D]all [Bm]away[Em]
[Asus4][D][Asus4]
Laughing it [Bm]all [Em]away[A][D][Asus4]
[Bm]Laugh[Em] ing[D][Asus4]
[G]it all[D] away
