Verse 1
[Asus2]The candyman's complaining he can't [F#m]get the blood [E]off his hands
[Asus2]He can't tell the difference between [F#m]friends and [E]powder fans
[Asus2]Hooked on what they're given, so they [F#m]just won't [E]go away
[Asus2]Gave them his umbrella, took it [F#m]back on a [E]rainy day
(Then play normal A,F#m E barre chords the same as in the intro)
Verse 2
[Asus2]Char De Ville's complaining, 'bout the [F#m]things we [E]shrug away
[Asus2]Realised it matters, when your [F#m]heart gets [E]stolen away
[Asus2]Not the things he didn't do, the [F#m]things he [E]didn't say
[Asus2]Hanging on that look he gave her, [F#m]stay in [E]touch now
Bridge
[F#m]Each of them complaining about the situation
[C#m]That they both know oh so well
[D]Now each of them complaining 'bout his chosen vocation
[Dm]But I'm not dealing with scum like you
Chorus
[F#m]And it's just a case of [D]tragic [E]magic
[F#m]When you can't remember [D]feeling [E]fantastic
[F#m]Just another case of [D]tragic [E]magic
[Bm]The dealer remembers more than the [C#m]man
(Then A,F#m,E Barre Chords)
Verse 3
[Asus2]And not alot of people have the [F#m]problems [E]that they do
[Asus2]Off load all your troubles they'll come [F#m]running [E]back to you
[Asus2]This life is a puddle but the [F#m]goodness [E]does occur
[Asus2]So steal another shaving of the [F#m]sultan's[E] cook
Bridge
[F#m]Keep on complaining, move in to the sadness lane
[C#m]Come around and sing with me
[D]Make everyone ecstatic using the chromatic
[Dm]scale That no-one sings round here
Chorus
[F#m]And it's just a case of [D]tragic [E]magic
[F#m]When you can't remember [D]feeling [E]fantastic
[F#m]Just another case of [D]tragic [E]magic
[Bm]Remember you're no more than the [C#m]man oh no
[D]The dealer remembers more than the [E]man
More than the man
