[C#m] Take [B] your white finger, [E] [F#m]
slide the nail [F#] under, [G#] the [A] top and [B] bottom [C#m] buttons of [F#] [E] my blazer.
[F#m] Relax the [F#] fringe, [C#m] [F#m] slacken [B] ties and [A] I, not to look at [E] you in the shoe, [Bm] but the eyes.
Find the [D] eyes!
[Bm] Find me and follow me, through corridors, [D] perfectories, and fire we must follow thee.
This academic [Bm] factory will find me in the matinee, the dark of the matinee, it's [D] better in the matinee, the dark of the matinee, [A] it's mine, [C#m] yes it's mine!

You smile, mention [E] something that you like, oh how [Bm] you'd have a happy life.
If you dip [D] the things you like, [Bm] find me and follow me, through corridors, [D] perfectories, and fires we must follow thee.
This academic [Bm] factory will find me in the matinee, the dark of the matinee, [D] it's better in the matinee, the dark of the [A] matinee, it's mine, [C#m] yes it's [B] mine!
[F#m]
[C#m] So I'm on BBC [G#m] Two [B] now, [E] [F#m] telling Terry Wogan [F#] how [G#] I [A] made [B] it [C#m] and what I [G#m] made is unclear [B]
now.
[E] [D#m] [F#m] But his deference is, [G#] and [A] his laughter is, my words and smile [E] are so easy now.
[Bm] Yes it's easy now.
[D] Yes it's easy now!
[Bm] Find me and follow me, through corridors, [D] perfectories, and fires we must follow thee.
This academic factory [Bm] will find me in the matinee, the dark of the matinee, [D] it's better in the matinee, the dark of the matinee, [Bm] it's mine, yes it's [D]
