Verse

  (QUICKLY)

On the day that your mentality

 Decides to tryyy a ha ha yyy to catch up with your biology

(note slight change from first verse, with no G after first line, straight into C again)

 On the day that your mentality

Catches up with your biology

 I want the one I can't have

And it's driving me mad

 It's all over, all over, all over my face

A double bed

 And a stalwart lover for sure

These are the riches of the poor

Same as above excpet Em Bm C D progression played twice

A double bed

And a stalwart lover for sure

These are the riches of the poor

Chorus 3

 And I want the one I can't have

And it's driving me mad

It's all over, all over, all over my face

until:

 A tough kid who sometimes swallows nails

Raised on Prisoner's Aid

 He killed a policeman when he was thirteen

 And somehow that really impressed me

 And it's written all over my face

 Then the intro:

 Oh, these are the riches of the poor

 Then intro chords again

These are the riches of the poor

Chorus

 I want the one I can't have

And it's driving me mad

 It's written all over my face

until:

Last Verse

 On the day that your mentality

Catches up with your biology

 And if you ever need self-validation

 Just meet me in the alley by the railway station

It's all over my face

Outro is Em continuously
