Come and play the tunes of glory
C
Raise your voice in celebration
C G/C
Of the days that we have wasted

In the café¬ in the station

And learn the meaning of existence

In fortnightly instalments

These are still our Glory Days

Oh, my face is unappealing
G7sus4/D C
And my thoughts are unoriginal
G7sus4/D C G7sus4/D C
I did experiments with substances -
But all they did was make me ill, and I
F
I used to do the I Ching
Dm
But then I had to feed the meter
G7sus4/D C
Now I can't see into the future

But at least I can use the heater
Oh it doesn't get much better than this

'Cos this is how we live our Glory Days
And I could be a genius
If I just put my mind to it
And I, I could do anything
If only I could get round to it
Oh, we were brought up on the Space Race
Now they expect you to clean toilets!
When you've seen how big the world is
Oh, how can you make do with this?
If you want me, I'll be sleeping in
Sleeping in throughout these Glory Days

Verse
(Key Change 1 tone)
These glory days can take their toll
So catch me now before I turn to gold
Yeah we'd love to hear your story
Just as long as it tells us where we are
And where we are is where we're meant to be
Oh c'mon, make it up yourself!
You don't need anybody else!
And I promise i won't tell
These days to anybody else
In the world but you.
No-one but you
No-one but you
No-one but you
No-one but you.
