The Beautiful South - The Rocking Chair guitar tab
A C#m/G# D/F# E
Here I walk, here I walk
F#m E/G# D/F# E
Loooking for an angel's wings in the den of the hawk
A C#m/G# D/F# E
Here I am, here I am
F#m E/G# D/F# E
With a choice between an also ran and a sunbed tan
A C#m/G#
And you thought you'd found your own little look
B/F# E
How I misjuged, how I mistook
A C#m/G#
And you thought you'd found the style of your hair
D/F# E D/F# E
I guess tonight I'll take, I'll take my troubles to
A
The rocking chair
A B/F# E E7
So I'll take these high heeled shoes
A B/F# E E7
And yes I'll take these traditional views
F#m E A C#m/G#
I'll take this deep despair of a 30 year old square
F#m
To the rocking chair
A C#m/G# D/F# E
Here I sit, here I sit
F#m E/G# D/F# E
Looking for a warming smile in a house of cold wit
A C#m/G# D/F# E
Here I stand, here I stand
F#m E/G# D/F# E
Torn between the balding drunk and no man's land
A/F# C#m/G#
And they'll tell you when you've reached your peak
B/F# E
Where the wulf-whistle rung there's a deafening shriek
A C#m/G#
Blowing kisses into the air
D/F# E D/F# E
I guess tonight I'll take, I'll take these troubles to
A
The rocking chair
A B/F# E E7
So I'll take these awkward stance
A B/F# E E7
And I'll take this sexless dance
F#m E A C#m/G#
I'll take this deep despair of a 30 year old square
F#m
To the rocking chair

Am I skinny? A shade too fat?
D/F# E
Mmmm... My friend the cat knows all about that
A
Am I happy?
(Here I sit, here I sit)
C#m/G#
Just a little sad
(Looking for a warming smile in the house of cold wit)
D/F# E
