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

The best you ever had

As daft as they seem
D
My love when you dream them up
[Bridge]
C#m F#m
Oh, where did you go?
Bm
Where did you go?
C#m Bm
Where did you go? Woah.
