THERE'S A GUY WORKS DOWN THE CHIP SHOP SWEARS HE'S ELVIS by Kirsty MacColl
G
Oh darling why you talk so fast
D
Another evening just flew past tonight
And now the daybreak's coming in
G
And I can't wait and it aint right
G
You told me all you've done and seen
C
And all the places you have been without me
Well I don't really want to know
G
But I'll stay quiet and then I'll go
D G
And you won't have no cause to think about me
CHORUS:
G C G
Theres a guy works down the chip shop swears he's Elvis
C G
Just like you swore to me that you'd be true
G C G
Theres a guy works down the chip shop swears he's Elvis
D G
But he's a liar and I'm not sure about you
G
Oh darling you're so popular
D
You were the best thing new in Hicksville
With your mohair suits and foreign shoes
G
News is you changed your pick-up for a Stockville
G
And now I'm lying here alone
C
And your out there on the phone with some star in New York
I can hear you laughing now
G
And can't help feeling that somehow
D G
You don't mean anything you say at all
CHORUS (x2)
Last line repeat three times
