[A]The Pub talk, [C#m]the scandals
[F#m]Like vandals they [Bm]try to [Bm7]tear you [D]down.[G]
[A]The whispers [C#m]turn rumours
[F#m]There's no truth but [Bm]that don't [Bm7]stop those [D]cats.[G]

[A]They need that [C#m]little bit extra
[F#m]They don't mind if it's [Bm]only con[Bm7]jecture.[D][G]

[D]They tried to tell me I [E]wasn't I full time
[D]I tried to think of an [E]alibi
[Bm7]I felt so awful I [D]spat in their faces
And [E]ran for my life

A C#m F#m Bm Bm7 D G (x2)

[A]They need that [C#m]little bit extra
[F#m]They don't mind if it's [Bm]only con[Bm7]jecture.[D][G]

[D]They tried to tell me theirs [E]was the right way
[D]I tried shout that that [E]was a lie
[Bm7]I felt so sick I spat [D]on their life styles
With a [E]run away pride!

[A]Untouched by [C#m]human hands
[F#m]'Cause only God knows I [Bm]don't call [Bm7]that a [D]man[G]
[A]Who spends his [C#m]waking days
[F#m]Telling others what to [Bm]think and [Bm7]what to [D]say[G]

[D]They tried to tell me I [E]wasn't normal
[D]I tried to say there's [E]no such thing
[Bm7]I felt so awful I [D]spat in their faces
With a [E]run away pride!
