This is almost exactly the same as the other version on here, but I just made some
changes like changing F# to F#m (To me it sounds right). I also changed the word "buddy" to
"colleague" because that's what Ed actually sings.
A E F#m
Some people think the perfect fantasy is the girl next door
D A
But my dream girl has got the keys to my heart and home
E
I never dreamed that in a million years
F#m D
She'd settle for me.
A E
This room's to let, I only advertised this morning,
F#m D
But here you are with three months rent and references that shine beyond
A
Belief.
E
Take me to my room, you said,
F#m
No time to lose, you said,
D
And now you're making omelets and you ask me,
F#m E
"Who's that girl on the fridge"
D
And I'm telling my life story,
E
But I guess she's too good for me.
A
She's not my girlfriend,
E F#m
She's just a friend who's a girl,
D
She's my colleague, she's my best mate,
A
She rocks my world,
E F#m
I wanna tell her, but I just can't find the time,
Or find the words,
D
Oh, for God's sake, kiss the girl.
A E F#m D

A E
A quiet night in, but we won't even know you're here,
F#m
No phones, no interruptions,
D A
Maybe now's my chance to tell her how I feel.
E
But now you're here and I can't think,
F#m D
So why not stay and have a drink?
I don't mind if you don't mind.
Do you want to stay?
I don't mind.
Great.
F#m E
And now she's going to live with monkeys,
D
See the world and disappear,
E
Am I what's keeping her here?
A
She's not my girlfriend,
E
She's just a friend who's a girl,
F#m
She's my colleague, she's my best mate,
D
She rocks my world,
A E F#m
I wanna tell her, but I just can't find the time,
Or find the words,
D
Oh, for God's sake, kiss the girl.
A E F#m
I can't take this anymore.
D A
I want you to go, cause you're talking to a cat,
E F#m
D
And everybody loves you, and you're better than me at football and my job,
A E
And now Sophie's all "Monkeys, monkeys, monkeys"
F#m D
You're going to take her away from me.
A E
Alright, I didn't want to do this,
F#m
But it might be the only way
D A
The world will end if you don't concentrate on why you want to stay.
E F#m D
So, Mr. Sofa Man, what's keeping you here?
A
Sophie!
I don't wanna leave,
E
Sophie!
I can't leave,
F#m
Sophie! D
I love you, Sophie.
A E
But what about the monkeys?
F#m
Oh, not again, not when the world's about to burn,
D
Just, for God's sake,
A
Kiss the girl.
