Intro 4x: A Bm G D
( A Bm G D )
Ottoman couch, how handsome your furniture
Lovelier now, but dressed for a funeral
Begging you to sit for a portrait on the wall
To hang in the dark of some parliamentary hall
( A Bm G D )
Elegant clothes, you want to be seen with her
Under your tweeds you sweat like a teenager
Begging you to sit for a portrait on the wall
To hang in the dark of some parliamentary hall
A D G A
Today is for you
D G
They laid it out for you
A
For you
D G A
There will be six bells a-ringing and white women singing for you
D G A
But this feels so unnatural to Peter Gabriel, too
( A Bm G D )
All of the cards and all of the time it took
Soon it's all lines of red in a leather book
Begging you to wait for a minute by the door
Your creeping feet where they've never been before
A D G A
Today is for you
D G
They laid it out for you
A
For you
D G A
There will be six bells a-ringing and white women singing for you
D G A
But this feels so unnatural to Peter Gabriel, too
