Perfect

E A B A


[Verse 1]
       E              A
It's a chilly English winter
    B                 A     
And solitude is never easy to 
       E     A B
maintain
  A             E     A  B  A
Except when it rains
     E             A             
So I hang an empty smile beneath 
B        A
my empty eyes
       E          A     B A
And go out for a walk
    E            A           B   
The wet morning sun reflects off 
           A
the paving-stones
        E          A          B  
While a little dog barks its head
       A
 off
        E         A B A
In the distance


[Chorus]
E            A       B A E
  Oh, what a perfect day
   A      B      A     E
To think about myself
            A      B              
My feet are firmly screwed to the 
A     E
floor
      A          B                
What is there to fear from such a 
A       E
regular world?
           A       B A E
Oh, what a perfect day
   A      B      A     E
To think about myself
            A      B              
My feet are firmly screwed to the 
A     E
floor
      A          B                
What is there to fear from such a 
A       E      A B A
regular world?

[Verse 2]
E             A
Passing by a cemetery
           B                       
I think of all the little hopes and
 A
 dreams
         E             A     B   
That lie lifeless and 
          E    A   B A
unfullfilled beneath the soil
         E       A           
I see an old man fingering his 
  B         A
perishing flesh
            E              A      
He tells himself he was a good man
    B         A
 and did good things
  E            A        B        
Amused and confused by life's 
    A
little ironies
    E            A         B      
He swallows his bottle of 
 A    E     A B A
distilled damnation


[Verse 3]
E            A           B       
People turn around with unseeing 
 A
eyes
        E            A             
They're looking for something that 
B         A
doesn't exist
    E              A             
The world you once knew is being 
B        A
eaten up by rust
E                       A         
No-one has time for the past, but 
 B                 A
still, in God they trust
    E         A             B
The future is now, but it's all 
          A
going wrong
E                A               
Bodies good for nothing, but it's
    B               A
 to nothing they belong
E                A           B  
People say their prayers and 
       A
some work hard
       E                  A    
If you give them all your money, 
          B              A     E
they'll give you their hearts
      A          B           A   
This town ain't going like a 
   E   A B
ghost town
      A         E      A B A
It's going like hell....


[Chorus]
E            A       B A E
  Oh, what a perfect day
   A      B      A     E
To think about myself
            A      B              
My feet are firmly screwed to the 
A     E
floor
      A          B                
What is there to fear from such a 
A       E
regular world?
E            A       B A E
  Oh, what a perfect day
   A      B      A     E
To think about myself
            A      B              
My feet are firmly screwed to the 
A     E
floor
      A          B                
What is there to fear from such a 
A       E
regular world?
E            A       B A E
  Oh, what a perfect day
   A      B      A     E
To think about myself
            A      B              
My feet are firmly screwed to the 
A     E
floor
      A          B                
What is there to fear from such a 
A       E
regular world?
E            A       B A E
  Oh, what a perfect day
   A      B      A     E
To think about myself
            A      B              
My feet are firmly screwed to the 
A     E
floor
      A          B                
What is there to fear from such a 
A       E
regular world?
E            A       B A E
  Oh, what a perfect day
   A      B      A     E
To think about myself
            A      B              
My feet are firmly screwed to the 
A     E
floor
      A          B                
What is there to fear from such a 
A       E
regular world?
