Intro:

Verse:

(When playing ‘B’, alternate, on the B string, between 0 and 2… in line with the vocal.)

This is the place sit down,

you’re safe now

You’ve been stuck in a lift

We’ve been trying to reach you, Thom

This is the place. It won’t hurt,

it will not hurt

Chorus:

(When playing ‘B’, alternate, on the B string, between 2, 0, 2, 4, 2 & 0… in line with

the vocal)

A smell of recognition. A face you barely loved.

Empty all your pockets cos it’s time to go home

Verse:

This is the place

Remembering all the things you always see

You’ve been stuck in a lift

In the belly of a whale at the bottom of the ocean

Chorus:

A smell of recognition. A face you barely loved

Empty all your pockets cos it’s time to go home

Outro:

Today is the first day of the rest of your days

So lighten up, squirt!
