Beautiful South - Tonight I Fancy Myself guitar tab

Tonight I Fancy Myself

by Paul Heaton and David Rotheray

Intro:

C F C F C F C F

C F

She'd brought along the oranges

C F

He'd brought the tea

Dm F C F C F

They'd both brought along a sick-bag just in case

The plate of chicken sandwiches

Were lovely they agreed

Dm F C F C F

And I watched him spit the bits into her face

"Do you love me like you used to" he sighs

Dm G C F C F

"I love you twice as much" she replies

They were on the train to Venice, where else?

Dm G C F C F

I think tonight I fancy myself

G

[Chorus]

C F

I'd rather drink that toast to my own health

C G

I think tonight I'd rather love myself

C F

And if you drink that drink to your own health

C G C F C F

I think tonight I'd rather love myself

[end Chorus]

Later in the evening

The sun came rolling down

Dm F C F C F

And they talked about their fantasies and fears

Between the heavy breathing

And those lighter licking sounds

Dm F C F C F

I heard him whisper this question in her ear

"Would you still love me if I lost my legs?"

Dm G C F C F

"I'd see that you were loved and you were fed"

"I end up in a car crash almost dead"

Dm G C F C F

"For richer and for partly severed head"

[Chorus]

Am G

The neighbours ask them out but they flatly refuse

Am G

"We're saving up for a world-wide cruise"

Am G

With a choice between loneliness and lovesick QE2's

Am Em-G-C F C F

Well tonight I choose - self abuse

A four-pack in the fridge

A good book on the shelf

Dm G C

I think tonight I'd rather love myself
