You used to get it in your fishnets
                             C#m
Now you only get it in your night dress
                                      F#m
Discarded all the naughty nights for niceness
                  B
Landed in a very common crisis
                             E
Everything’s in order in a black hole
                                C#m
Nothing seems as pretty as the past though
                                F#m
That Bloody Mary’s lacking a Tabasco
                               B
Remember when he used to be a rascal?

                     F#m
    Oh, the boy’s a slag
                       B
    The best you ever had
                       F#m
    The best you ever had
               B                 F#m
    Is just a memory and those dreams
                     B
    Not as daft as they seem
                     F#m
    As daft as they seem
                       A
    My love when you dream them up

                                   E
Flicking through a little book of sex tips
                                  C#m
Remember when the boys were all electric?
                                F#m
Now when she tells she’s gonna get it
                                        B
I’m guessing that she’d rather just forget it
                              E
Clinging to not getting sentimental
                               C#m
Said she wasn’t going but she went still
                               F#m
Likes her gentlemen not to be gentle
                                    B
Was it a Mecca Dobber or a betting pencil?

                     F#m
    Oh the boy’s a slag
                       B
    The best you ever had
                       F#m
    The best you ever had
               B                 F#m
    Is just a memory and those dreams
                         B 
    Not as daft as they seem
                     F#m 
    As daft as they seem
                       B 
    My love when you dream them up
         G#m               C#m
    Oh Flo, where did you go?
                   F#m
    Where did you go?
                   G#m  F#m
    Where did you go? Woah

     E        C#m
    Falling about
         F#m                        B
    You took a left off Last Laugh Lane
              E         C#m
    You just sounded it out
    F#m                      B
    You’re not coming back again
