Verse:

G# 
Well I kept fantasizing your eyes were wide open 
A# 
and it made me long for little last night 
C# 
Yes it was frantic, it was young, it was sweet 
G# 
But a sweet worth every bite 
G# 
Now I'm not normally one to be greedy 
A# 
But I had to be greedy with you 
C# 
5 days, 6 days. the whole of the month 
G# 
wouldn't satisfy my only sweet tooth 


            G# 
Well it can take many years to forge a friendship 
        A# 
It can take a lifetime to get close 
       C# 
But we took all the shortcuts, 
used our hearts as a map 
G# 
and we still got closer than most

G# 
Well excuse my staring but it's just your looks 
A# 
are a standard well above myself 
C# 
Your face might mean zip to you 
G# 
But to me it's something else 
G# 
All I can do is thank you 
A# 
and wish that every dream you have will come true 
C# 
5 years, 6 years, the whole of your life 
G# 
I'll be wishing for the riches for you

G# 
You dashed pretty's only chance of a compliment 
A# 
and gave the plain the blues 
C# 
Turned supermodel into last year's pull 
G# 
and got her down shining your shoes 
G# 
And I don't mean to be hod carrier 
A# 
of the ordinary folks bad news 
C# 
But tell Miss World to fly to Mars 
G# 
If she really doesn't like to lose.
