# I've seen several charts for this song out there and most of them 
# are wrong!! This is not how you'd play on guitar, but it captures 
# the subtle harmonies that make it a great tune. It's also in G for 
# a baritone vocal. 

# D#9 chord:

A|--1--|
E|--1--|
C|--3--|
G|--0--|

# F9 chord:

A|--0--|
E|--1--|
C|--0--|
G|--0--|

# (Difford - Tilbrook)

Intro 2x: | G G7 | C C7 |

# verse:
           G                  Bm          Em
I bought a toothbrush, some toothpaste, a flannel for my face
  A                        Cm
Pajamas, a hairbrush, new shoes and a case
  Gm                                 Dm                   D#9  F
I said to my reflection, "let's get out of this place"
Bb         C7                          Eb
Passed the church and the steeple, the laundry on the hill
G                
Billboards and the buildings
F9              C#+
Memories of it still keep
Gm7          C7
Calling and calling
Gm7                          C7
But forget it all, I know I will

chorus:

G              F9         C          C7
Tempted by the fruit of another
G               F9           C          C7
Tempted but the truth is discovered
             A7
What's been going on
         D
Now that you have gone
           G         F9
There's no other
C              C7         G       F9
Tempted by the fruit of another
C                            Am      Cm
Tempted but the truth is discovered

# Same progression for 2nd verse and chorus
# 3rd verse ends with the Bb, goes straight into last chorus
# There is a vamp on the final chorus progression to fade
