Belle and Sebastian - Mr Richard: chords

A
Saw a suit in Daddy’s wardrobe, I took a swipe
Lapels, size of islands, gangster white
line pinstripe
                               D
Laughed off the street in the name of
    E        A
my rock 'n' roll

Ah, still a caterwauling groove will
start off vacation
Eighties plastic soul don’t give palpitation
Richie, he no like, he call out the firing squad

Chorus:
D
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
                             A
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
D
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
                             A
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba


Richie look for suede, me I look for leather
Sartorially we groove, occasional disaster
Tight black canvas no make for a straight
legged sixties scenester

Then we hit the street with poise of commando
Clothes, guitar but arsenal missing one thing
Exotic Glasgow chick, they call her the
"Carmen Veranda"

Chorus

Me and Richie dream to be like Mr. Richard
Strung out secure, yes, we make like junkie
Hooked up on that stuff they call it
the rock 'n' roll

I need to consecrate, I need consecration
Clipped and soulful guitar riffing out the nation
The nation in my head the national sixties sensation

Chorus
