[F#m] [E] I treat my friends, [D] oh [A] far too well, I'm up [E] on the pavement, and they're [A] all down in the [E] cell with their golden grants, [A] and my IQ, they [E] brought me down to size, [D] I could play any [A] old [E] blues.

[E] Who you need is this girl, [D] I know her [A] well, she's up [E] on the pavement, yeah [F#m] she's a weather girl, [E] and I'm staying up here, so [F#m] I may be undone, she's [E] inappropriate, but [D] then she's much [A] more fun, [G] and when she [E] smiles [G] my way, my eyes [A] go out in vain, she's got perfect skin,
[D] [E] shame on you, you've got [Bm] no sense [A] of grace, shame [E] on me.
[A] Just in case I [E] might come to a conclusion, [A] other than that which is absolutely [E] necessary, [F#m] and that's [E] perfect skin.

When she [A] smiles [G] my way, my [A] eyes go out in vain, of her perfect skin, yeah that is perfect [E] skin.

When [A] she smiles my [G] way, my [A] eyes go out in vain, she's got perfect skin.
[E] Up 80 flats, a fancy [D] way to space, [C#m] Moonflat, [E] pretty confused huh?
[D] Big ships around [F#m] like that, [E] see the clouds, so high [D] now we're down so [A] low, [E] strike me tomorrow, this song must be, then it will have been one.
