  Fmaj7                 F6
I thought it was like a film

  Gm7              C7
Reviewed but never seen

      Fmaj7                F6
Where everybody played themselves

     Gm7           C7
As a drama king or queen
[Verse 2]
    Fmaj7         F6
The music was overwhelming

Gm7            C7
Glittering and thin

Fmaj7                    F6
Solemn and shabby like a requiem

   Gm7              C7
In denim and leopardskin
[Verse 3]
  Fmaj7          F6
I visualised the flashbacks:

Gm7                  C7
School, punk rock, success

Fmaj7                F6
Parties, too much of everything

    Gm7                       C7
The clichés, the candles, the mess
[Pre-Chorus]
Ebmaj7
Lucien in the scene with David

Bb7sus4        Bb7
Biba's closing sale

  Ebmaj7
A little more rouge on the powdered cheeks

        Bb7sus4
But the base is pale
[Chorus]
            Fmaj7
This is our last chance for goodbye

        Bb      C
Let the music begin

Fmaj7
Shining and soaring like a requiem
Bb C | N.C. | In denim and leopardskin [Verse 4]
   Fmaj7        F6
It ended with a motorbike

  Gm7           C7
A search for evidence

Fmaj7           F6
Poring over old photographs

   Gm7              C7
To make it all fake sense

Fmaj7            F6
Glamorous in its own way

Gm7                C7
Shouting above the din

Fmaj7                    F6
Solemn and shabby like a requiem

   Gm7              C7
In denim and leopardskin
[Pre-Chorus]
Ebmaj7
Johnny's wearing brothel-creepers

Bb7sus4             Bb7
Malcolm's round the block

The look is "Let It Rock"

A Johnson's leather jacket

Hair by Keith at Smile

All you need to make it big

   Bb7sus4
Is sex and style
