[Intro]
F Knees knocking and Bb Blood flowing, so F Dm Bb I want you to know...
F Bb F Dm Bb x2
[Verse 1]
F Bb You say you are an old cassette that has gone and spilt its spool F Dm Bb You're far more like a wet cardboard tube on this nightclub toilet floor F Bb As I describe my lonely, you listen very clear: F Dm Bb The last set of goalposts taken down, summer of odd numbered year
F Bb F Dm Bb
[Verse 2]
F Bb She says "if you're unhappy, then you gotta find the cure" F Dm Bb I prescribe me one more beer, beyond that I am unsure F Bb May not be be all and end all, in my defense she is the hole F Dm Bb I've thrown my goalkeeper forward, she's catenaccio
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Flotsam, Jetsam and Spindrift: all the girls I have loved Dm Dumped to earth by a spendthrift, gilt angels from above F And I saw God in the bathroom, I baptised him in sick Am Embraced him around his cistern "c'est la mort!, enough of this"
[Chorus]
G Knees knocking and Bb Blood flowing so G Dm Bb I want you to know that I want to
[Verse 3]
F Bb And later she said something that stuck hard in my mind: F Dm Bb "we are their Capel Celyn, they gotta keep their slippers dry F Bb To empathise with Tory's to invite upon disease F Dm Bb A safer bet's to pack your bags, go holiday in Eyam"
[Pre-Chorus]
Am I will take you where the sun shines, cast shadows on your face Dm Crawl into their deepest recess, 'til I freeze or dehydrate F We'll live and breathe it in real time, montage is for the dead Am And my heart's still doing Fosburys nowhere near finished yet
[Chorus]
G Knees knocking and Bb Blood flowing so G Dm Bb I want you to know that I want to
[Outro]
F Knees knocking and Bb Blood flowing so F Dm Bb I want you to know that I want to F Knees knocking and Bb Blood flowing so F Dm Bb I want you to know that I want to F Dm Bb I want you to know that I want to F Dm Bb F I want you to know that I want to
