[Intro]
EC#mF#mB
[Verse]
E
You used to get it in your fishnets
C#m
Now you only get it in your night dress
BF#m
Discarded all the naughty nights for niceness
B
Landed in a very common crisis
E
Everything's in order in a black hole
C#m
Nothing seems as pretty as the past though
BF#m
The Bloody Mary's lacking her Tabasco
B
Remember when you used to be a rascal?
[Chorus]
F#m
Oh the boy's a slag
B
The best you ever had
F#m
The best you ever had
BF#m
Is just a memory and those dreams
B
But as daft as they seem
F#m
As daft as they seem
A
My love when you dream them up...
[Verse]
E
Flicking through a little book of sex tips
C#m
Remember when the boys were all electric?
BF#m
Now when she's told she's gonna get it
B
I'm guessing that she'd rather just forget it
E
Clinging to not getting sentimental
C#m
Said she wasn't going but she went still
BF#m
Likes her gentlemen not to be gentle
s.c s.c.
Was it a Mecca dauber or a betting pencil?
[Chorus]
F#m
Oh the boy's a slag
B
The best you ever had
F#m
The best you ever had
BF#m
Is just a memory and those dreams
B
But as daft as they seem
F#m
As daft as they seem
B
My love when you dream them up
G#mC#m
Oh Flo, where did you go?
F#m
Where did you go?
G#mF#m
Where did you go? Woah.

[Chorus]
EC#m
Falling about
F#mB
You took a left off Last Laugh Lane
EC#m
You were just sounding it out
F#mB
You're not coming back again.
EC#m
Falling about
F#mB
You took a left off Last Laugh Lane
EC#m
You were just sounding it out
F#mB
You're not coming back again.
