[Intro]
D Bm Em A 2x
[Verse]
D
You used to get it in your fishnets
Bm
Now you only get it in your night dress
Em
Discarded all the naughty nights for niceness
A
Landed in a very common crisis
D
Everything's in order in a black hole
Bm
Nothing seems as pretty as the past though
Em
The Bloody Mary's lacking her Tabasco
A
Remember when you used to be a rascal?
[Chorus]
Em
Oh the boy's a slag
A
The best you ever had
Em
The best you ever had
A Em
Is just a memory and those dreams
A
But as daft as they seem
Em~
As daft as they seem
G~
My love when you dream them up
[Verse]
D
Flicking through a little book of sex tips
Bm
Remember when the boys were all electric?
Em
Now when she's told she's gonna get it
A
I'm guessing that she'd rather just forget it
D
Clinging to not getting sentimental
Bm
Said she wasn't going but she went still
Em \
Likes her gentlemen not to be gentle
(
A)
Was it a Mecca dauber or a betting pencil?
[Chorus]
Em
Oh the boy's a slag
A
The best you ever had
Em
The best you ever had
A Em \
Is just a memory and those dreams
A \
But as daft as they seem
Em
As daft as they seem
G
My love when you dream them up
[Bridge]
F#m Bm
Oh, where did you go?
