D Emma tried to run away A I followed her across the city G She went out to the Easter House F#m Because she liked the sound of it She didn't have a single penny She stuck her finger in the air She tried to flag down an aeroplane I suppose she needs a holiday I put my arm around her waist She put me on the ground with Judo She didn't recognize my face She wasn't even looking Laura's feeling just ideal Her horoscope was nearly perfect She's thinking of something to do Because she is The Birthday Girl She walked out to the edge of town She saw me lying in the park She took Emma by the hand They've got a lot in common I'll leave them to do what they want I'll leave them to do what they need to I'll go and play with words and pictures I'll admit I'm feeling strange I'm not as sad as Dostoevsky I'm not as clever as Mark Twain I'll only buy a book for the way it looks And then I stick it on the shelf again Now, I could tell you what I'm thinking But it never seems to do you good It's beyond me what a girl can see I'm only lucid when I'm writing songs This is just a modern rock song This is just a sorry lament We're four boys in our corduroys We're not terrific but we're competent Stevie's full of good intentions Richard's into rock 'n' roll Stuart's staying in, and he thinks it's a sin That he has to leave the house at all This is just a modern rock song This is just a tender affair I count "three, four" and then we start to slow Because a song has got to stop somewhere | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA  D  F#m  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
