{section: Verse 2}
(as chord progression in Verse 1, from first D#m7)
Cream cakes, coffee dates, floral gifts goodbye.
Passed away for the day had a change of kind.
Sex change too mundane for the average mind.
Oh no, she just can't see,

Looked prim and straight like she's always been
All that she saved for went missing again.
Instrumental Break 2 (as before)

She could be, she could be, she could be,

Instrumental Break 3 (as before, X2)
{section: Verse 3}
as Verse 2, with the extra B(1) chords)
They found a body in the lake.
Maybe, it wasn't really his name.
Same colour, same weight, same size feet.
(R 2).................
It's the not knowing that kills you.
Oh no, the clocks stopped slow,
everytime you're on your own.
You hide from the spies so no-body knows.
Scratch through the pages of the lazy days news for a clue.
Still looking for you.
