The Rocking Chair The Beautiful South
[A] [C#m/G#] [D/F#] [E]
Here I walk, here I walk
[F#m] [E/G#] [D/F#] [E]
Loooking for an angel's wings in the den of the hawk
[A] [C#m/G#] [D/F#] [E]
Here I am, here I am
[F#m] [E/G#] [D/F#] [E]
With a choice between an also ran and a sunbed tan
[A] [C#m/G#]
And you thought you'd found your own little look
[B/F#] [E]
How I misjuged, how I mistook
[A] [C#m/G#]
And you thought you'd found the style of your hair
[D/F#] [E] [D/F#] [E]
I guess tonight I'll take, I'll take my troubles to
[A]
The rocking chair
[A] [B/F#] [E] [E7]
So I'll take these high heeled shoes
[A] [B/F#] [E] [E7]
And yes I'll take these traditional views
[F#m] [E] [A] [C#m/G#]
I'll take this deep despair of a 30 year old square
[F#m]
To the rocking chair
[A] [C#m/G#] [D/F#] [E]
Here I sit, here I sit
[F#m] [E/G#] [D/F#] [E]
Looking for a warming smile in a house of cold wit
[A] [C#m/G#] [D/F#] [E]
Here I stand, here I stand
[F#m] [E/G#] [D/F#] [E]
Torn between the balding drunk and no man's land

[A/F#] [C#m/G#]
And they'll tell you when you've reached your peak
[B/F#] [E]
Where the wulf-whistle rung there's a deafening shriek
[A] [C#m/G#]
Blowing kisses into the air
[D/F#] [E] [D/F#] [E]
I guess tonight I'll take, I'll take these troubles to
[A]
The rocking chair
[A] [B/F#] [E] [E7]
So I'll take these awkward stance
[A] [B/F#] [E] [E7]
And I'll take this sexless dance
[F#m] [E] [A] [C#m/G#]
I'll take this deep despair of a 30 year old square
[F#m]
To the rocking chair
[A] [C#m/G#] [D/F#] [E] [F#m] [E/G#] [D/F#] [E]
[A] [C#m/G#] [D/F#] [E] [F#m] [E/G#] [D/F#] [E]
[A] [C#m/G#]
Am I skinny? A shade too fat?
[D/F#] [E]
Mmmm... My friend the cat knows all about that
[A]
Am I happy?
(Here I sit, here I sit)
[C#m/G#]
Just a little sad
(Looking for a warming smile in the house of cold wit)
[D/F#] [E]
Mmmm... My friend the cat knows all about that
[A]
Am I skinny?
(Here I walk, here I walk)
[C#m/G#]
A shade too fat?
(Loooking for an angel's wings in the den of the hawk)
[D/F#] [E]
My friend the cat knows all about that
