I’ve just finished decorating, it was very irritating
C G C
And I know they’re going to come around tonight and I know they’re gonna say
G
to me tonight:
D7 G D7 G
“It makes the room look bigger; it makes the room look bigger”.
G
So let’s forget about the open-top bus ride; standing tall on the town hall

balcony
C G C G
It’s about as likely as hen’s teeth; it’s about as likely as hen’s teeth
D7 G D7 G
And as the light gets dimmer, I watch the chance get slimmer.
C G
But I’m putting up a hook to hang my hopes upon
C G
There’s a fella coming round to stick the gas back on
C G
And if truth be told now that Thelma’s gone
D G (instr) G C (x3) D7 G
It makes the room look bigger.
G
I’m drawn towards the souvenir stores; I twirl around the key fob rack
C G C

C G C G
And her sense of relief at my friendly tone reveals itself in her karmic

D7 G
Oh, there’s generally one a twenty-five past
D7 G
There’s generally one at twenty-five past
D7 G
They come swinging round that corner,
Eb G C G C G
They think they’re Benny Goodman”.
