Intro: B E B E, B E B E
 
           B                       E      B              E 
I could be tugging on the beard of science like a cheeky schoolboy 
B                 E        B                            E 
But I couldn't be bothered, thats why I'm still in the box room 
B                E          B            E 
Face down in the last ditch, my natural home 
B        E    B                  E        E B C#m A (2x) 
I can do that but I don't really want to. 
      E              B 
Oh, I used to cajole Gordon Giltrap 
  C#m                   A 
I used to think that it mattered 
        E                B 
But the low drone of the treadmill 
       C#m                     A         B E B E (2x) 
Is the sound of my hopes being shattered. 
            B                      E          B                   E 
I should be standing in a chaos of sunflowers, with a girl from Machynlleth 
B                   E              B                   E 
But I'm down at the children's zoo, kicking off on the goats. 
B          E     B            E 
Increasing doubt, decreasing hope 
B        E               B                    E      E B C#m A (2x) 
Even my imaginary friend went and changed his mind. 
      E              B 
Oh, I used to cajole Gordon Giltrap 
  C#m                   A 
I used to think that it mattered 
        E                B 
But the low drone of the treadmill 
       C#m                      A 
Is the sound of my hopes being  shattered. 
      E                 B 
Oh, I turned my back on Nazareth 
  C#m                   A 
I used to think that it mattered 
        E                B 
But the low drone of the treadmill 
       C#m                      A           (B E B E  C#m 
Is the sound of my hopes being  shattered.
