Belle and Sebastian - I'm a Cuckoo: chords

F#
I'm glad to see you
B
I had a funny dream
         A#m           G#m
You were wearing funny shoes
         A#m        G#m
You were going to a dance
          A#m
You were dressed like a punk but you
      B        A#m   C#   C#sus4  C#
were too young to remember

F#
Glad to see you
 B
I'm outside the house
         A#m             G#m
I'm not thinking right today
     A#m         G#m
I've got no energy
      A#m               B       A#m
I'm glad that you were waiting with me
 C#
Tell me all about your day

Chorus:
D#m              C#
Breaking off is misery
         B             F#
I see a wilderness for you and me
     B           A#m
Punctuated by philosophy
    C#                     B
I’m wondering how things could've been

I'm happy for you
You've made it hard for me
I counted on your company
You are staying with your friends tonight
I'm feeling sorry for myself
I keep taking everything to be a sign

I'm happy for you
Now I know this hurt is poison
Too sharp to be bled
I'm sitting on my empty bed
I'm on my empty bed
At night, the fever grows, it's pounding pounding

Chorus:
I'd rather be in Tokyo
I'd rather listen to Thin Lizzy-oh
Watch the Sunday gang in Harajuku
There's something wrong with me, I'm a cuckoo

Scary moment, lovin' every moment
I was high from playing shows
We lost a singer to her clothes
My trouble raised its ugly head
I was revealed and I was home in bed
I was a kid again

Jesus told me, go after every coin
Like it was the last in the world
And protect the wayward child
But I'm a little lost sheep
I need my Bo Peep
You know I need my shepherd here tonight

Chorus:
Breaking off is misery
I see a wilderness for you and me
Punctuated by philosophy
And a wondering how things could've been

I'd like to see you, but really I should stay away
And let you settle down
I've got no claims to your crown
I was the boss of you and I loved you
You know I loved you
It's all over now

I was there for you
When you were lonely
I was there when you were bad
I was there when you were sad
Now it's my time of need
I'm thinking, do
I have to plead to get you by my side?

Chorus:
I'd rather be in Tokyo
I'd rather listen to Thin Lizzy-oh
Watch the Sunday gang in Harajuku
There's something wrong with me, I'm a cuckoo
