Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 I swear  I wasn't cat-napping
 To edge  into your life
 I didn't  notice no  sad thing
 (It's a sundance)
 To the strange strains  that you entice
 Now you may walk  into an ocean view
 (Exciting)
 It's like you  have understood
 And I  was just talking  at you
Talking  at you
 For the good  inside, the good  inside of us
Do  you send me?
 No, you're  a kind  of dream
 But somewhere  in the scheme  of things
 We'll find  who's Thursday's Child
We  don't have to undo you
 Or entertain  your kind
Only  reason I talk  to you
 Is 'cos I think  you may be, a heart  attack is blind
 And checking  out your resum
 And making  out your plans
 The kisses  are not something  we can talk  about
 They happened  - and you laughed  about it
Laugh  out loud
Do  you send me?
 No, you're  a kind  of dream
 But somewhere  in the scheme  of things
 We'll find  who's Thursday's Child
Once,
 Is our boast
 Do you?
 Would you?
 Only excite me
 To join  us is a talking clock,  yes
 He tells us everything  - we want  him to stop
 But somewhere  in the corner
 He's a-laughin',  he's a-crying out loud
 For some  kind of attention  which isn't shrouded  by
Nicety  is something  which hangs  around this stage
 Believe  me when I tell  you - you can act  around it
 Mewl and puke  about it
I  don't want to hurt  you
 I just  want to join  in
 This is a kindly creamer
kindly  crematorium
Do  you send me?
 No, you're  a kind  of dream
 But somewhere  in the scheme  of things
 We'll find  who's Thursday's Child
