[Intro]

E|------| 

It alternates between D and Dsus2, listen to the song 
for the rhythm and correct timing.
is the same little riff that happens quite a bit 
throughout the song, mostly in the verses.

[Verse 1]

E|------|-- 

D
Y' know my wandering days are over
          A                     F#m
Does that mean that I'm getting boring?
         G
You tell me

I'm tired of listening to myself, yeah
                                               D
I'm tired of fixing things for Michael and the rest of 
them

[Verse 2]

E|------|-- 

           D
Y' know my bip-bopping days are over
          A                   F#m                  
I hung my boots up and then retired from the disco 
G
floor

The centre of my so called being is
                                                 D
The space between your bed and wardrobe with the louvre
 doors
          A
(With the louvre doors)

[Verse 3]

E|------|-- 

D
Y' know my celibate days are over
           A                     F#m                 
You put me straight on the finer points of my speech 
  G
rehearsed

In the mirror of my steamy bathroom
                                        D
Where the lino tells a sorry story in a monologue
       A
 (In a monologue)

[Chorus]

E|------|- 

D                  G
Six months on, the winter's gone
    D            G
The disenchanted pony
D                      G
Left the town with the circus boy
    D              G
The circus boy got lonely
     D                G
It's summer, and it's sister song's
     D               G
Been written for the lonely
    Bm            A            G
The circus boy is feeling melancholy

[Bridge]

D    A    F#m    G    D    A  (x2)

[Verse 4]

E|------|-- 

     D
It's got to be fate that's doing it
         A               F#m                    G
A spooky witch in a sexy dress has been bugging me

With the story of the way it should be
                                          D
With the story of Sebastian and Belle the singer, yeah

[Verse 5]

           D
Y' know my one man band is over
          A                  F#m               G
I hit the drum for the final time and I walked away

I saw you in Japanese restaurant
                      Gm                  D
You were doing it for business men on the piano, Belle
                  A
You said it was a living Hell
                    G
You said you were in Hell

[Chorus 2]

D                  G
Six months on, the winter's gone

The disenchanted pony
D                      G
Left the town with the circus boy
    D              G
The circus boy got lonely
     D                G
It's summer, and it's sister song's
     D               G
Been written for the lonely
    Bm            A            G
The circus boy is feeling melancholy

The disenchanted pony
D                      G
Left the town with the circus boy
    D              G
The circus boy got lonely

It's summer, and it's sister song's

The circus boy is feeling melancholy
