Em                         D
Take you to the cinema and leave you in a Wimpy Bar --
    C                          Asus2
you tell me that we've gone to far -- 
     Am            D 
come running up to me. 
 

Em                                       D
Make the scene at Cousin Jack's -- leave him put the bottles back -- 
C                        Asus2
mends his glasses that I cracked -- 
     Am               D 
well that's one up to me. 

NEXT THE SAME 
Buy a silver cloud to ride -- 
pack the tennis club inside -- 
trouser cuffs hung far too wide -- 
well it was up to me. 
 

Tyres down on your bicycle -- 
your nose feels like an icicle -- 
the yellow fingered smokey girl 
is looking up to me.

(              Oh! oh!  oh!         You know it's up to me        )
 
 

The rainy season comes to pass -- 
the day-glo pirate sinks at last -- 
and if I laughed a bit to fast. 
Well it was up to me
