C Cmaj7 F C
[Chorus]
Cmaj7 I'm the town crier F C And everybody knows Cmaj7 I'm a little down F C With a lifetime to go Am Am/G D/F# Maybe you don't believe my heart is in the right place Am Am/G D/F# Why don't you take a good look at my face Bm Bm/A E/G# Other boys use the splendour of their trembling lip Bm Bm/A E/G# They're so teddy bear tender and tragically hip
[Verse 1]
Em I'm never going to cry again Bm I'm going to be as strong as them Em They say they'd die for love and then they live it out Bm They'll give you something to cry about Am Am/G D/F# And suddenly you really fall to pieces
[Chorus]
Cmaj7 I'm the town crier F C And everybody knows Cmaj7 I'm a little down F C With a lifetime to go Am Am/G D/F# Maybe you don't believe my heart is in the right place Am Am/G D/F# Why don't you take a good look at my face Bm Bm/A E/G# Other boys use the splendour of their trembling lip Bm Bm/A E/G# They're so teddy bear tender and tragically hip
[Verse 2]
Em Love and unhappiness go arm in arm Bm Long suffering friends of your fatal charm Em Isn't it a pity that you're going to get hurt Bm Just a little boy lost in a big man's shirt Am Am/G D/F# And suddenly you really fall to pieces
[Chorus]
Cmaj7 I'm the town crier F C And everybody knows Cmaj7 I'm a little down F C With a lifetime to go Am Am/G D/F# Maybe you don't believe my heart is in the right place Am Am/G D/F# Why don't you take a good look at my face Bm Bm/A E/G# Other boys use the splendour of their trembling lip Bm Bm/A E/G# They're so teddy bear tender and tragically hip
