Intro: C Am 


 
             C 
When I said ‘excuse me, please’ 
                        Am 
You asked oh what did I want 
                    C 
I wanted someone to lie with on a Tuesday afternoon 
                         Am 
Let’s say sometime around one o’clock 
                     C 
You must have looked shocked I fast changed tack 
            Am 
Right enough Thursdays are better for me 
                          F 
Once the clocks have gone back 

 
           G                          F 
You chose quiet, a silence to cause a riot 
                             G 
My defence the worst form of attack 
                     F C         G 
And that’s making me sad, I give in 
                 F C        G 
That’s making me sad, no argument 

C  Am 


 
          C 
I had you pegged as someone so nervous 
      Am 
You’d constantly chew on your lip 
                 C 
But once I heard your voice 

Like a punch to the chest 
  Am 
A kick in the gut 
                              F 
And a blow to the head all at once 



                G                          F 
Still you kept quiet, a silence to cause a riot 
                         G 
A defence to ward off my attack 
                     F  C        G 
And that’s making me sad, I give in 
                 F  C        G 
That’s making me sad, no argument 
       C 
No argument
