Since the first version isn't complete I figured I'd make one. Enjoy Intro: A Bm G D 4x
A       Bm         G             D
Ottoman couch, how handsome your furniture
Lovelier now, but dressed for a funeral Begging you to sit for a portrait on the wall To hang in the dark of some parliamentary hall
A       Bm           G          D
Elegant clothes, you want to be seen with her
Under your tweeds you sweat like a teenager Begging you to sit for a portrait on the wall To hang in the dark of some parliamentary hall
A            D        G      A
Today is for you

             D             G    
They laid it out for you

A
For you

              D                       G                       A
There will be six bells a-ringing and white women singing for you

         D                  G                 A
But this feels so unnatural to Peter Gabriel, too

A          Bm        G          D
All of the cards and all of the time it took
Soon it's all lines of red in a leather book Begging you to wait for a minute by the door Your creeping feet where they've never been before
A            D        G      A
Today is for you

             D             G    
They laid it out for you

A
For you

              D                       G                       A
There will be six bells a-ringing and white women singing for you

         D                  G                 A
But this feels so unnatural to Peter Gabriel, too
A-D-G-A until fade out
