Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Son[G], t[D]her[Em]e are[D] mirrors here - - watch
your performing little [G]whales[D][G]
[D]Or snip your harnes[G]s off and[D] take another
walk around the [Em]bay[G][D][G]
[D]The way the English say: "We only
mustn't [G]grumble in the end,"
[D]A n[Em]eedle[D] i[Em]n you[D]r back,[G]
an ar[D]row in your heart, you [G]smile[D]
[Em]

[Verse 2]
[E]
Is your wax doll still [G]crying in the
fire?
[D][Em][D][G][D]

[Verse 3]
It cramps your [Em]handwrit[D]ing and dulls what
little style you [Em]have[D][Em][D]
You cast [Em]your mind back [D]to professionals
[Bm]like [D]Alan [Em]Breeze[D]
Who sees the win[Em]dows [D]freeze and
hands around [Em]the key[D]s
"Unlock yourself," he says,
but no one [Bm]ever does[D]
Except for Jac[Em]ob L[D]urch,
and [Em]Mr. [D]Moose and [Em]Dandy[D]
[Em][Bm]

[Verse 4]
[E]
Is your wax doll still [G]crying in [D]the fire?
Is [E]your wax doll still [G]crying in the fire?

[Interlude 1]
[D][G][F#m]
[F#][Bm][D]
[E][D][E][D][E]
[D][Em][D][Bm]

[Verse 5]
[D]Son, there are [A]breakers here - - your [D]living room
it [E]glides across [Am]the s[D]ea[A][D][A][D]
Or high above [Em]the waves,
[D]the wrinkled little [Bm]waves you can[B]not [D]smooth[Am][D][Em][D]
We travel [E]everywhere,
[A]we're gonna [D]take the suburb[Bm]s to [A]the[D] stars[Am][D][Em]
[D]If I was[Em] man enough,
[D]I'd come on [Bm]your stump[D]
If I was [Em]man enough,
[D]I'd come on your stump
[Bm]But [D]don'[Em]t you [D]know,
[Em]this is the [D]Home Counties?
[Em][Bm]

[Verse 6]
[E]
Is your wax doll still [G]crying in the [D]fire?
Is [E]your wax doll still [G]crying in the [D]fire?
Is [E]your wax doll still [G]crying in
[D]the [Em]fire[D]?[G][D]
What [Em]you say,

[Verse 7]
[D]
[Em]what[D] you do[Em][D]
What you say, [Em]what you say,
what you say
[D]What you do,
[Em]what[D] you do, what you do
Ahh
[Em]Do you

[Verse 8]
[D]thi[D]nk that anybody wants
to [Em]be your friend
Now that they know?
