Dm7 C7M
I brought you some francs from my travelling chest
Dm7 C7M
You'll spare me the thanks 'til you know I'm the best
Dm7 C7M
So come Hogmonay when love comes in slurs
Dm7 G E7
Resolutions I'll make and you can label them 'Hers'
F Am
We threw our hands up high we, nearly touched the sky,
F
We clicked our heels and spat and swore
D7 F#º
We'd never let it die
Chorus
C E7
All those boy wonders
F7M C
Sold their medals when they saw this train
E7
Now this boy wonders
F7M C
When he'll feel the fall of honest rain
E7 F7M C
I came from high land where the hopefuls have to hesitate
E7
Now this boy wonders
F7M G
Why the words were never worth the wait
F
In pastel paper pink over grey
We wrap, wrap, wrap and chuck, chuck away
G
The poor excuse they peddle as their prose.
verse 2
Dm7 C7M
Dry your tears, tie your tongue
Dm7 C7M
And you're never sixteen
Dm7 G E7
And I'll give you a glimpse
F Am
Of the hard and the clean
F
And my travelling chest will be open to you
D7 F#º
And boy will you learn that you haven't a clue
Bridge
A Db7 F#m A
I even asked my best friend but he could not explain
Db7
It hit me when I left him
F#m Db7
I felt the rain and called it genius,
F#º
Called it genius.
Chorus
C E7
All those boy wonders
F7M C
Sold their medals when they saw this train
E7
Now this boy wonders
F7M C
When he'll feel the fall of honest rain
E7 F7M C
I came from high land where the hopefuls have to hesitate
E7
Now this boy wonders
F7M G
Why the words were never worth the wait
F
In pastel paper pink over grey
We wrap, wrap, wrap and chuck, chuck away
G
The poor excuse they peddle as their prose.
