   I've spent six years on your trail

   Am  G    F
   Six long years

           D     G
   On your trail


           Fmaj7           D
   Call me morbid, call me pale

              Fmaj7             D
   I've spent six years on your trail

   Am        G          F              D   G
   Six full years of my life on your trail



              E                 F  C  G

   And she wrote to me, equally dour
   She said : "In the days when you were

   Sixteen, clumsy and shy
   I went to London and I
   I booked myself in at the Y ... W.C.A.
   I said : "I like it here - can I stay ?
   I like it here - can I stay ?
   And do you have a vacancy
   For a Back-scrubber ?"


   Call me morbid, call me pale
   I've spent too long on your trail
   Far too long
   Chasing your tail
   Oh ...
