[Intro] Gmaj7 E7
           Gmaj7           E7
   Call me morbid, call me pale

              Gmaj7             E7
   I've spent six years on your trail

   Bm  A6   G
   Six long years

           E7     A
   On your trail

           Gmaj7           E7
   Call me morbid, call me pale

              Gmaj7             E7
   I've spent six years on your trail

   Bm       A6          G                E7  A
   Six full years of my life on your trail

              F#                        G  D  A
   And if you have five seconds to spare

             F#                       G    C  G6
   Then I'll tell you the story of my life :

   D                   A
   Sixteen, clumsy and shy

F#                       Bm G
   I went to London and I

     D                       A     F#m  F#
   I booked myself in at the Y ... W.C.A.

               Gmaj7               E7
   I said : "I like it here - can I stay?

     Gmaj7               E7
   I like it here - can I stay?

   Bm            A6      G
   Do you have a vacancy

                   E7    A
   For a Back-scrubber?"

           Gmaj7           E7
  She was left behind and sour

              Gmaj7             E7
     And she wrote to me, equally dour

                      Bm                  A6         G
   She said : "In the days when you were hopelessly poor

           E7        A
   I just liked you more..."

              F#                        G  D  A
   And if you have five seconds to spare

             F#                       G    C  G6
   Then I'll tell you the story of my life :

   D                   A
   Sixteen, clumsy and shy

F#                       Bm G
   I went to London and I

     D                       A     F#m  F#
   I booked myself in at the Y ... W.C.A.

               Gmaj7               E7
   I said : "I like it here - can I stay

     Gmaj7               E7
   I like it here - can I stay?

   Bm            A6      G
   Do you have a vacancy

                   E7    A
   For a Back-scrubber?"

           Gmaj7           E7
   Call me morbid, call me pale

              Gmaj7             E7
   I've spent too long on your trail

   Bm  A6   G
   Far too long

           E7     A
   Chasing your tail, oh...

              F#                       G  D  A
   And if you have five seconds to spare

             F#                       G    C  G6
   Then I'll tell you the story of my life :

   D                   A
   Sixteen, clumsy and shy

F#                     Bm     G
   That's the story of my life

   D                   A
   Sixteen, clumsy and shy

       F#m         F#
   The story of my life

              Gmaj7          E7
   That's the story of my life

Gmaj7                      E7
   That's the story of my life

Gmaj7                     E7
   That's the story of my life

Gmaj7                 E7 ...
   The story of my life

Gmaj7 / E7
(Repeat until end)
That's the story of my life That's the story of my life That's the story of my life That's the story of my life That's the story of my life That's the story ...
