[Intro]
Gmaj7  E7
[Verse]
         Gmaj7           E7 
Call me morbid, call me pale
            Gmaj7             E7 
I've spent six years on your trail
Bm  A6   G 
Six long years
          E7     A 
On your trail
         Gmaj7           E7 
Call me morbid, call me pale
            Gmaj7             E7 
I've spent six years on your trail
Bm       A6          G              E7  A 
Six full years of my life on your trail
[Chorus]
            F#                        G  D  A 
And if you have five seconds to spare
           F#                       G    C  G6 
Then I'll tell you the story of my life :
D                   A 
Sixteen, clumsy and shy
F#                       Bm G 
   I went to London and I
   D                       A     F#m  F# 
I booked myself in at the Y ... W.C.A.
             Gmaj7                E7 
I said : "I like it here - can I stay?
   Gmaj7                E7 
I like it here - can I stay?
Bm            A6      G 
Do you have a vacancy
                E7    A 
For a Back-scrubber?"
[Verse]
  
She was left behind, and sour
 
And she wrote to me, equally dour
 
She said : "In the days when you were
 
Hopelessly poor
 
I just liked you more..."
[Chorus]
            F#                        G  D  A 
And if you have five seconds to spare
           F#                       G    C  G6 
Then I'll tell you the story of my life :
D                   A 
Sixteen, clumsy and shy
F#                       Bm G 
   I went to London and I
   D                       A     F#m  F# 
I booked myself in at the Y ... W.C.A.
             Gmaj7                E7 
I said : "I like it here - can I stay?
   Gmaj7                E7 
I like it here - can I stay?
Bm            A6      G 
Do you have a vacancy
                   E7    A 
   For a Back-scrubber?"
[Verse]
  
Call me morbid, call me pale
 
I've spent too long on your trail
 
Far too long
 
Chasing your tail
 
Oh ...
[Chorus]
            F#                       G  D  A 
And if you have five seconds to spare
           F#                       G    C  G6 
Then I'll tell you the story of my life :
D                   A 
Sixteen, clumsy and shy
F#                     Bm     G 
   That's the story of my life
D                   A 
Sixteen, clumsy and shy
      F#m        F# 
The story of my life
             Gmaj7      E7 
That's the story of my life
Gmaj7                      E7 
   That's the story of my life
Gmaj7                     E7 
   That's the story of my life
Gmaj7                 E7..... 
   The story of my life
Gmaj7                     E7  
   That's the story of my life
Gmaj7                     E7  
   That's the story of my life
Gmaj7                     E7  
   That's the story of my life
Gmaj7                     E7  
   That's the story of my life
Gmaj7                     E7  
   That's the story of my life
Gmaj7
   That's the story ...
