Elvis Costello & The Attractions – Busy Bodies (Ukulele)

               C                         G/B
So you think that you have seen her,

                     C/E         D#
When you?re lying in between her

               C                     G/B
And you tell me that you don?t care

         C/E                   D#
[tab]       C                           D#
Everybody?s getting meaner

            C          G                     C  C/F#  D#    C  Am7  G
Busy bodies caught in the concertina

C                        D#         D                G
You check her outline, break her regulations

E/B             Am/C                      D            G  D#
You watch her legs through several service stations

Dm            D#               Dm               G7
Busy bodies, very busy, getting nowhere

                     C             G/B
Now you?re ready for a merger

                 C/E                D#
With the company you?re part of

               C                 G/B
And you do the dirty business

                 C/E                 D#
With your latest sleeping partner

                 C            D#
You?re becoming automatic

           C        G                             C  C/F#  D#    C  Am7  G
Busy bodies out playing with the traffic

C                 D#      D                      G
You want attention. You try my patience

E/B               Am/C                     D              G        D#
With the best intentions you are nothing but a nuisance

Dm            D#               Dm            G7
Busy bodies, busy busy, getting nowhere

                     C                  G/B
Now you?ve given your performance

                    C/E           D#
Though the matinee was idle

               C                   G/B
And you find out that a wave of

               C/E                        D#
Her right hand could seem so tidal

              C             D#
Just a second satisfaction

            C            G                     C  C/F#  D#    C  Am7  G
