Chords

As recorded by Robbie Williams (From the 2026 Album BRITPOP) [Intro] E [Verse 1]
A
Teenage kicks, with messy kids

         E
A lot of love, and shrugs, a local insurrection

A
And what it was, is what it is

          E
I have to smile when she offers me protection
[Pre-Chorus]
D              A       E
It's all fun until the ashtray's full

D            A            E         A       E   D
You call the man, but the man won't come at all

               E
Here comes the fall
[Chorus]
                            Bm
And it's all good until the birds start chirping

Dm                           A
The strangers leave, and the drugs stop working

F#                      Bm
It's all good until the dawn prevails and what was in the mail

A          E          D
Is at your door again

    A       E
And you're alone again
[Verse 2]
A
We feel good, but then we should

           E
Because we pay, to feel, to feel like we're perfection

A                                          E
A cheeky half, a proper laugh, and it goes dark

E
And I dance with my reflection
[Pre-Chorus]
D        A             E
It's all fun until the sun comes up

D                       E
You call the man but he won't wake up at all

E
Sunday morning call
[Chorus]
A                           Bm
And it's all good until the birds start chirping

Dm                           A
The strangers leave, and the drugs stop working

F#                      Bm
It's all good until the dawn prevails and what was in the mail

A          E
Is at your door again

A                          Bm
The look of lust becomes a beast of burden

Dm                          A
You're paranoid and peeking through the curtains

F#                       Bm
It's way too late now to go to bed, you're in your head

            E
And on your own again

E
You're on your own again
[Bridge]
A           Bm  Dm  A  F#  Bm    E
Na na na na na...

And it's all good until the birds start chirping

The strangers leave, and the drugs stop working

It's all good until the dawn prevails and what was in the mail

A          E
Is at your door again

A                          Bm
The look of lust becomes a beast of burden

Bm
(Beast of burden)

Dm                          A
You're paranoid and peeking through the curtain

A
(Through the curtain)

F#                       Bm
It's way too late now to go to bed, you're in your head

            E
And on your own again

                        A
You're all alone again
