A
Thought I saw you in the Battleship
D                 Bm
But it was only a look a like
A
She was nothing but a vision trick
D         Bm
Under the warning light

        F#m    A                       F#m
She was close, close enough to be your ghost
       A
But my chances turned to toast
       D              Bm                 A
When I asked her if I could call her your name

I thought I saw you in the Rusty Hook
Huddled up in wicker chair
I wandered up for a closer look
And kissed who ever was sitting there

She was close, and she held me very tightly
Till I asked awfully politely, please
Can I call you her name

      D                      Bm
And I elongated my lift home,
F#m                                   
Yeah I let him go the long way round
Bm
I smelt your scent on the seatbelt
    E                      A
And kept my shortcuts to myself

(back to verse chords)
I thought I saw you in the Parrots Beak
Messing with the smoke alarm
It was too loud for me to hear her speak
And she had a broken arm

       F#m    A                            F#m
It was close, so close that the walls were wet
        A                    D
And she wrote it out in letraset
       Bm                C#m
No you can't call me her name

A                    C#m            A
Tell me where's your hiding place
                 C#m       
I'm worried I'll forget your face
F#m
And I've asked everyone
Bm                          E
I'm beginning to think I imagined you all along

D                   Bm
I elongated my lift home
F#m                                   D
Yeah I let him go the long way round
Bm
I smelt your scent on the seatbelt
Dm
And kept my shortcuts to myself

(verse chords)
I saw your sister in the cornerstone
On the phone to the middle man
When I saw that she was on her own
I thought she might understand

She was close, well you couldn't get much closer
                                        D (one strum)
She said I'm really not supposed to but yes,
               Bm(one strum) A (let it ring)
You can call me anything you want
