     D5        A5        E5       F#m5
'Cos my friend said he'd take you home
     D5        A5     E5    F#m5
He sits in the corner all alone
D5       A5      E5    F#m5
He lives under a waterfall

Nobody can see him
E5         F#m5
Nobody can ever hear him call

Verse 2
-------
You need to be yourself
You can't be no one else
I know a girl called Elsa
She's into Alka-Seltzer
She sniffs it through a cane
on a supersonic train
And she makes me laugh
I've got her autograph
She done it with the doctor
On a helicopter
She sniffed it in a tissue
Selling the big issue

Pre-chorus 2
------------
When she finds out
'cos no one's gonna tell her what I'm on about
You need find a way for what you wanna say
But before tomorrow

Chorus

Improvise on solo until the song fades
