What am I to believe?

I'm the balcony man

Bb                         F                Bb
When everything is ordinary until it is not

I'm the balcony man

                 Bb
I am two hundred pounds of packed ice

                              Dm
Sitting on a chair and in the morning sun

                          Bb
Putting on my tap dancing shoes

                  Gm
Oh my lap dancing shoes
In the morning sun [Verse 2]
         Bb
I am the balcony man, I'm Fred Astaire

Gm
You think you have a plan until I hit the stairs

    Bb
I'm two hundred pound bag of blood and bone

           Gm
Leaking on your favourite chair

               Eb
As I put on my lap dancing shoes

In the morning sun

And this morning is amazing and so are you

This morning is amazing and so are you

In the morning sun
[Verse 3]

What am I to think on this balcony, Fred?

Gm
Where everything is amazing that stays in bed

      Bb
I'm a two hundred pound octopus under a sheet

                   Gm
Dancing round your world with my hands and feet

    F
And this much I know to be true

      Eb
Yeah, this much I know to be true

    F
And this much I know to be true

      Eb
Yeah, this much I know to be true
[Chorus]

This morning is amazing and so are you

This morning is amazing and so are you

This morning is amazing and so are you

This morning is amazing and so are you

You are languid and lovely and lazy

                                         Dm      Gm
And what doesn't kill you just makes you crazier
Eb F Gm Eb F Gm Eb F Bb
