C(add9)
When I first saw you
D6
Something stirred within me
C(add9) D6
You were standing sultry in the rain
C(add9)
If I could've held you
D6
I would've held you
C(add9) D6
Rip it up and start again
C(add9) D6
Rip it up and start again
C(add9) D6
Rip it up and start again
C G/D
I hope to God you're not as dumb as you make out
C
I hope to God
G
I hope to God
C G/D
And I hope to God I'm not as numb as you make out
C
I hope to God
G
I hope to God
(Instrumental section, one full bar per chord)
C(add9) - - - D6 - - -
C(add9) - - - D6 - - -
C(add9)
And when I next saw you
D6
My heart reached out for you
C(add9) D6
But my arms stuck like glue to my sides
C(add9)
If I could've held you
D6
I would've held you
C(add9) D6
But I'd choke rather than swallow my pride
C(add9) D6
Rip it up and start again
C(add9) D6
Rip it up and start again
C G/D
I hope to God you're not as dumb as you make out
C
I hope to God
G
I hope to God
C G/D
And I hope to God I'm not as numb as you make out
C
I hope to God
G
I hope to God
C(add9)
And there was times I'd take my pen
D6
And feel obliged to start again
C(add9)
I do profess that there are things in life
D6
That one can't quite express
C(add9) D6
You know me I'm acting dumb-dumb
C(add9) D6
You know this scene is very humdrum
C(add9) D6
And my favourite song's entitled 'boredom'
(Instrumental with sax solo, one full bar per chord)
C(add9) - - - D6 - - -

C(add9) - - - D6 - - -
C(add9) - - - D6 - - -
C(add9) - - - D6 - - -
C(add9) D6
Rip it up and start again
C(add9) D6
I said rip it up and start again
C(add9) D6
I said rip it up and start again
C(add9) D6
I said rip it up and start again
C(add9) D6 C(add9) D6
I said rip it up and rip it up, rip it up and rip it up, rip it up and start again
(fade out)
