Belle and Sebastian - Sleep the Clock Around: Ukulele Chords

         E
And the moment will come when composure returns
       B
Put a face on the world, turn your back to the wall
        C#m
And you walk twenty yards with your head in the air
          A
Down the Liberty Hill, where the fashion brigade
           E
Look with curious eyes on your raggedy way
        B
And for once in your life you've got nothing to say
           C#m
And could this be the time when somebody will come
          A
To say, "Look at yourself, you're not much use
to anyone"

Take a walk in the park, take a Valium pill
Take the letter you got from the memory girl
But it takes more than this to make sense of the day
Yeah, it takes more than milk to get rid of the
taste
And you trusted to this and you trusted to that
When you saw it all come, it was waving the flag
Of the United States of Calamity, hey!
After all that you've done boy, I know you're going
to pay

In the morning you come to the ladies' salon
To get all fitted out for the Paperback Throne
But the people are living far away from the place
Where you wanted to help, you're a bit of a waste
And the puzzle will last until somebody will say
"There's a lot to be done while your head is still
young"
If you put down your pen, leave the worries behind
Then the moment will come and the memory will shine

Now the trouble is over, everybody got paid
Everybody is happy, they are glad that they came
Then you go to the place where you've finally found
You can look at yourself, sleep the clock around

Sleep the clock around
Sleep the clock around
