 Subject: Beautiful South - 'Tonight I Fancy Myself'<br/>
 <br/>
 Tonight I Fancy Myself<br/>
 by Paul Heaton and David Rotheray<br/>
 <br/>
 Intro:<br/>
 C F C F C F C F<br/>
 <br/>
 C                       F<br/>
 She'd brought along the oranges<br/>
 C                F<br/>
 He'd brought the tea<br/>
 Dm                          F                C    F C F<br/>
 They'd both brought along a sick-bag just in case<br/>
 <br/>
 The plate of chicken sandwiches<br/>
 Were lovely they agreed<br/>
       Dm                   F             C    F C F<br/>
 And I watched him spit the bits into her face<br/>
 <br/>
 "Do you love me like you used to" he sighs<br/>
    Dm                G            C    F C F<br/>
 "I love you twice as much" she replies<br/>
 They were on the train to Venice, where else?<br/>
   Dm              G       C    F C F<br/>
 I think tonight I fancy myself<br/>
 <br/>
 G<br/>
 <br/>
 [Chorus]<br/>
            C                   F<br/>
 I'd rather drink that toast to my own health<br/>
         C                  G<br/>
 I think tonight I'd rather love myself<br/>
            C                   F<br/>
 And if you drink that drink to your own health<br/>
         C                  G         C F C F<br/>
 I think tonight I'd rather love myself<br/>
 [end Chorus]<br/>
 <br/>
 Later in the evening<br/>
 The sun came rolling down<br/>
          Dm                 F             C     F C F<br/>
 And they talked about their fantasies and fears<br/>
 <br/>
 Between the heavy breathing<br/>
 And those lighter licking sounds<br/>
   Dm               F                     C   F C F<br/>
 I heard him whisper this question in her ear<br/>
 <br/>
 "Would you still love me if I lost my legs?"<br/>
      Dm                G                  C    F C F<br/>
 "I'd see that you were loved and you were fed"<br/>
 "I end up in a car crash almost dead"<br/>
      Dm             G              C     F C F<br/>
 "For richer and for partly severed head"<br/>
 <br/>
 [Chorus]<br/>
 <br/>
 Am                                   G<br/>
 The neighbours ask them out but they flatly refuse<br/>
 Am                                G<br/>
 "We're saving up for a world-wide cruise"<br/>
        Am                                     G<br/>
 With a choice between loneliness and lovesick QE2's<br/>
                Am            Em-G-C F C F<br/>
 Well tonight I choose - self abuse<br/>
 <br/>
 A four-pack in the fridge<br/>
 A good book on the shelf<br/>
   Dm                G             C<br/>
 I think tonight I'd rather love myself<br/>
