Standard (EADGBE)

Verses Middle 8

Bridge dm

X,5,7,7,6,5)

Intro

muted strums under the little synth/keyboard riff then when the band come in

 play - .

The verses on the recording dont have any guitar but if your playing acoustic still play

A, F#m and E but play the A as an Asus2 (0,0,2,2,0,0) and the F#m (2,4,4,2,0,0)

Verse 1

The candyman's complaining he can't get the blood off his hands

He can't tell the difference between friends and powder fans

Hooked on what they're given, so they just won't go away

Gave them his umbrella, took it back on a rainy day

(Then play normal A,F#m E barre chords the same as in the intro)

Verse 2

Char De Ville's complaining, 'bout the things we shrug away

Realised it matters, when your heart gets stolen away

Not the things he didn't do, the things he didn't say

Hanging on that look he gave her, stay in touch now

Bridge

Each of them complaining about the situation

That they both know oh so well

Now each of them complaining 'bout his chosen vocation

But I'm not dealing with scum like you

Chorus

And it's just a case of tragic magic

When you can't remember feeling fantastic

Just another case of tragic magic

The dealer remembers more than the man

 (Then ,, Barre Chords)

Verse 3

And not alot of people have the problems that they do

Off load all your troubles they'll come running back to you

This life is a puddle but the goodness does occur

So steal another shaving of the sultan's cook

Bridge

Keep on complaining, move in to the sadness lane

Come around and sing with me

Make everyone ecstatic using the chromatic

scale That no-one sings round here

Chorus

And it's just a case of tragic magic

When you can't remember feeling fantastic

Just another case of tragic magic

Remember you're no more than the man oh no

The dealer remembers more than the man

More than the man

Solo

Middle 8

And you know I'd ask you, but I already know the answer

 You'll say "No" and call me a chancer

And you know I'd ask you, but I know what you'll say

 You don't take no prisoners with scum like me

Chorus

x2)

And it's just a case of tragic magic

When you can't remember feeling fantastic

Just another case of tragic magic

And it's just a case of tragic magic

When you can't remember feeling fantastic

Just another case of tragic magic

The dealer remembers more than the man

Remember you're no more than the man

No more than the man

Then play A,F#m E just like in the intro over the last few lines
