[Am] [G]
[Am] I can see [G]
it [F] very well
There's [C] a boy on the reef [D] with a broken back
[F] And I can [G] see [Am] it very well
[G] [Am] There's
[G] [D] [Am]
a joke and [G] I know it [F] very well
It's [C] one of those that I [D] told you long ago
[F] Tell my [G] world and the [Am] madman [G] don't
[Am]
[E] [Am] Once a fool [G] had a good part [F] in the play
If [C] it's so, would I still [D] be here today?
It's quite [F] [G] peculiar in a funny [Am] sort of way
They [F] think it's very [G] funny, every [Am] last thing I say
[G] [C] Get [G] a load of him, he's [E] so insane
You better [Am] get your [C] coat, dear
[Dm] [G] It looks [A] like a rain
[C] [D] We're coming [F] in next [G] Thursday [D]
[A] afternoon
Feel [C]
[D] as hope I'll [F] [G] see you [D] very [A]
soon
But [F]
is it in your conscience [Dm] that [E] you're after?
[Am] Another [C] glance at the [F] madman I caught [G] up

Take [F] my [G] word and the [Am] madman don't you know
The [F] [G] ground's a long way [Am] down but I need more
[G] Is [C]
the [G] nightmare flag or are the windows [Em] painted?
[E] We'll [A] come again [C]
next [Dm] week, [G] come on my man, [A] I'll take it
[C] We'll [D] come again [F] next [G] Thursday [D] [A] afternoon
