Chords
Verse 1
C Am
He's pleased to meet you underneath the horse
C Am
In the cathedral with the glass stained black
C Am
Singing sweet high notes that echo back
Ab G7
To destroy their master
C Am
May be a long time till you get the call-up
C Am
But it's sure as fate and hard as your luck
C Ab G D
No-one'll know where you are
Chorus
C Am Fmaj7 G
It's just a brief smile crossing your face
C Am Fmaj7 G
Running speed trials standing in place
Verse 2
C Am
When the socket's not a shock enough
C Am
You little child what makes you think you're tough?
C Am
When all the people you think you're above
Ab G7
They all know what's the matter
C Am
You're such a pinball yeah you know it's true
C Am
There's always something you go back running to
C Ab G D
To follow the path of no resistance
Chorus
C Am Fmaj7 G
It's just a brief smile crossing your face
C Am Fmaj7 G
Running speed trials standing in place
Am F C G
It's just a brief smile crossing your face
Am F C G
Running speed trials all over the place
Ending
Play these chords to fade-out while Elliott sings "Oooh-ooh-ohh", etc.:
Am F C G
During the part where the words are "No one'll know where you are", you might try:
Ab Eb F G
No one'll know where you are
Same for "To follow the path of no resistance"
Neither one is completely right, I don't think, but maybe each is part right.
