Despair In The Departue Lounge

Tom: D

D                        F#m 
he's pining for her in a people carrier 
               Bm                                               A 
there might be buildings and pretty things to see like that but architecture won't do 
            D                                               F#m 
although it might say a lot about the city or town, i don't care what they've got keep on turning them down 
         Bm                                        A 
it don't say the funny things she does, don't even try and cheer him up because it just won't happen

             D                        F#m 
he's got the feeling again, this time on the aeroplane 
               Bm                                           A                                 
there might be tellys on the back of the seats in front but rodney and del won't do 
            D                                                            
although it might take your mind off the aches and the pains, laugh when he  
F#m 
falls through the bar but you're feeling the same 
        Bm                                          A 
cos she isn't there to hold your hand, she won't be waiting for you when you land 
 
                 Bm                G 
it feels like she's just nowhere near 
                Bm              G 
you could well be out on your ear 
                   Bm                       E 
this thought comes closely followed by the fear 
         G         F#m           A          D 
and the thought of it makes you feel a bit ill

D                          F#m                                       G 
yesterday i saw a girl who looked like someone you might knock about with,  
            A 
and almost shouted 
           D                            F#m                
and then reality kicked in within us it seems as we become the winners 
     G                               A 
you lose a bit of summit, and half wonder if you won it at all 
 
               Bm                   G 
and don't say owt cos you've got no idea 
Bm                        G 
and she's still nowhere near 
                      Bm                       E 
and the thought comes closely followed by the fear 
         G         F#m          A           D 
and the thought of it makes you feel a bit ill 
 
D                F#m                   Bm                   G     A   
despair in the departure lounge, it's one and they'll still be around at 
Bm 
three 
   G                 A 
no signal and low battery 
            D 
what's happened to me
