            [Intro]
G D C D G D Am7

G   D    Em          D               C       D        Em      Bm7
Shirley,    it's quite exciting to be sleeping here in this new room
G    D   Em        D        C          D      Em        Bm7
Shirley, you're my reason to get out of bed before noon
G    D   Em        D             C             D      Em      Bm7
Shirley,   you know when we sat out on the fire escape talking
G    D  Em            D          C       D              Em      Bm7  C  D
Shirley,  what did you say about running before we were walking

C                         Am7               G            D      G
Sometimes when we're as close as this   It's like we're in a dream
C                            Am7                                   D
How can you lie there and think of England   When you don't even know who's in the team

G   D    Em          D               C       D        Em      Bm7
Shirley, your sexual politics have left me all of a muddle
G   D    Em          D               C       D        Em      Bm7
Shirley, we are joined in the ideological cuddle
C                         Am7                    G        D      G
I'm celebrating my love for you     With a pint of beer and a new tattoo
C                            Am7                   D
And if you haven't noticed yet     I'm more impressionable when my cement is wet

Em            E
Politics and pregnancy
     Am                       C
Are debated as we empty our glasses
     G     Em                 C       G D
And how I love those evening classes

G   D    Em          D               C       D        Em      Bm7
Shirley, you really know how to make a young man angry
G   D    Em          D               C       D        Em      Bm7
Shirley, could we get through the night without mentioning family
C                         Am7                    G        D      G
The people from your church agree    It's not much of a career
C                            Am7                    D
Trying the handles of parked cars      Whoops, there goes another year

Whoops, there goes another pint of beer

C                    Am
Here we are in our summer years
G           D             G
Living on ice-cream and chocolate kisses
C                       Am
Would the leaves fall from the trees
          D
If I was your old man and you were my missus
G    D    C         D             G       D
Shirley,  give my greetings to the new brunette
  C                D     G       D
Greetings to the new brunette
  C                D      G
Greetings to the new brunette

D C D G D Am7
