Hard Act To Follow

Gm G C D G

[Verse 1]
G
There's a lot of good acts around
G
Plenty of profound performers
                 C                              G
But there's only one who really gets through to me

[Verse 2]
G
Whenever you come on I light up
G
Everything you do goes down well
      C                            G   F
I can tell, after you it's all downhill

[Chorus]
                 Gm
Proving you're a hard act to follow
         Bb
You're a hard act to follow
            C
You make it difficult, so difficult
Gm                           Bb
Hard act to follow, you're a hard act to follow
              C                                               E F
Keeping me at arms length, sapping my strength from a distance
Gm
Hard act to follow

[Verse 3]
               G
Watch a lot of foreign movies
             G
See a lot of late night TV
              C                             G
Looking for a girl to distract me from what you are

[Verse 4]
G
I try to lose my concentration
G
Acting out of sheer frustration
            C                                    G        F
I go out at night, but after you it doesn't feel right, hey

You're a hard act to follow
            C
You make it difficult, so difficult
Gm                           Bb
Hard act to follow, you're a hard act to follow
              C                                               E F
Keeping me at arms length, sapping my strength from a distance

                    G
And I'm not looking for an actress

No, no, not a saki hostess

All I want is you and you and you and you and you
G
Encore, encore, encore, encore
