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
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/beautiful_south/the_rocking_chair_crd.html )
[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
