[Intro]
B
 
[Verse]
(When playing 'B', alternate, on the B string, between 0 and 2... in line with the vocal.)
B
This is the place sit down,
       A         G#m       E
you're safe now
B
You've been stuck in a lift
                     A          G#m        E
We've been trying to reach you, Thom
B
This is the place. It won't hurt,
   A        G#m        E
it will not hurt
 
[Chorus]
(When playing 'B', alternate, on the B string, between 2, 0, 2, 4, 2 & 0... in line with the vocal)
B
A smell of recognition. A face you barely loved.
                                A         G#m        E
Empty all your pockets cos it's time to go home
 
[Verse]
B
This is the place
         A                            G#m            E
Remembering all the things you always see
B
You've been stuck in a lift
                  A                          G#m        E
In the belly of a whale at the bottom of the ocean
 
[Chorus]
B
A smell of recognition. A face you barely loved
                                A         G#m        E
Empty all your pockets cos it's time to go home
 
[Outro]
B                                          A         G#m
 
 E
Today is the first day of the rest of your days
               B
So lighten up, squirt!
