Chords

(Difford/Tilbrook) From the Some Fantastic Place CD single. Gorgeous song - shame it didn't feature on the Some Fantastic Place album. [Intro] C G | Bb F | Bb F | C G | [Verse 1]
C         G    Bb              F
Discipli--ine, hanging on by a drawing pin

Bb                 F
Can't seem to plan anything

      C              G
These days without a script

C         G    Bb              F
Discipli--ine, finds me in the state I'm in

Bb              F               G
I can't lose, I can't win these days
[Chorus 1]
     G                 Eb   C         Bb
When time will drip in-to a great big bowl

     D         G
that then gets mixed

                     Em   G
like the ingredients of a cake

  C           Bb       D            Cm
I find myself so trans-fixed on the time

          Bb               F    Am
that it's going to take to bake
[Verse 3] Discipli--ine, I wish I could shed my skin Find another to get in these days without a shape Discipli--ine, could be to me my everything Be the bell that I will ring these days [Chorus 2]
     Eb
When life slips like a plate

C       Bb       D         G
Fate is just the fence I'm leaning on

           Em     G
Nothing to do all day

Eb          Cm  Bb       D        Cm
What will I do  when the fence is gone

           Bb      F         Am
Will I get blown a-way, some day?
[Verse 4] Discipli--ine, could give me the very thing That the bee gives with its sting These days when success is shy Discipli--ine, put my heart into a sling Bury my head beneath your wing These days [Chorus]
G            Eb              Cm
That seem to fly, temper the tongue

     Bb        D      G
That wags just like a tail

                  Em      Abm
That will in turn wag the dog

    Eb  Cm    Bb         D        Cm
How far can I go from be-yond the pale

              Bb       F       Am
Before I fall from the log, ho hog
[Instrumental] [Verse 5] Discipli--ine, wound up like a bedstead spring Taking each day as it begins These days I can't complain Discipli--ine, could be to me my everything Be the bell that I will ring these days
     Em
When life spins like a plate

Cm               Bb        D       G
Fate is just the fence I'm leaning on

                  Em     G
Having nothing to do all day

Eb          Cm  Eb       D        Cm
What will I do  when the fence is gone

           Bb      F         Am
Will I get blown a-way, some day?

C         G    Bb  F    Bb  F  G
Discipli--ine, ooooh....oooooh

C         G    Bb  F    Bb  F  G
Discipline, ooooh....oooooh
[Outro] Eb Cm | Bb Dm | G | G | [x2]
