D G
[Verse 1]
D G
Have you ever had fancy lover?
D G
Gone crazy tryin’ to keep up with her?
D G
Its like you're standing in the darkness in the theatre up the back,
D Em
joining her ovation when you wish you could distract and take her home.
A
You had to try,
Em D A D G
don't some great loves start, with someone aiming too high?
[Verse 2]
D G
Have you ever had a fancy lover?
D G
Thrown everything that you've got at her?
D G
She's the winter that's so bitter you cut wood all summer long,
D G D G
She's two long years of thinking going into one old song,
Em A D
and that aint good, you were doing fine, you knew your chances
A G
and your place in the line..
[Chorus 1]
G D Em
Fancy lovers they need, fancy lovers of their own,
C A
you'll camouflage your soul for them.
G D
Where do they get to meet their own kind of people?
Em C A Bb D
Is there a light on the steeple that only fancy people see?
[Verse 3]
D G
When you try and keep a fancy lover,
D G
you force her hand and then discover,
D G D G
that she wouldn't look so perfect if it was just for you,
D G
is there someone behind your shoulder
D G
that she may have noticed too?
Em A
You'll never know, you had to be in.
Em A D
You bet on hearts girl, even when you won't win.
[Bridge]
C G D
And then she'll take the field against you,
Em F#m
fighting above your weight and your height.
G D
One hundred ways to hit the canvas,
C F#
a thousand days to beat the count.
{Chorus 2 and Outro}
G F#m Em
Fancy lovers they need, fancy lovers of their own,
C A
you'll camouflage your soul for them.
G D
Where do they get to meet their own kind of people?
Em C A Bb
Is there a light on the steeple that only fancy people see?
G D Bb
That only fancy people see?
G D Bb D
Fancy.
