Standard tuned down a whole step (DGCFAD)
Capo 1st fret


Odd Chords (Relative to capo)

Sorry, my chord theory is lacking so I don't know the names of them. The * will signify
different chord as opposed to the normal one.

Bm* - 224430
G* - 320013
A* - x02230
E* - 222000 (this is just used as a walking chord to the G in the chorus)

Intro

Just strum Bm* for 4 bars


Verse (To be sung with a very English accent...)

          Bm*
In their eyes is the place that you finally discovered
          G
That you love it here, you've got to stay
        Em
On the bottom of the rock, an island
                       Bm*
On which you find you love it when you twitch
                            G        G*  G
You feel that itch in you pettycoat
               Em
Your pretty pretty pettycoat


           Bm*
Then you smiled, he got wild
                                     G
You didn't understand that there's money to be made
                       Em
Beauty is a card that must get played
      A
By organisations


Chorus

   Bm*  G                   A           Em    Em*
And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me
  G     Bm*                 A                 Em            Em*
And ooh la, the world just chewed her up, and spat her out
  G     Bm*                 A           Em    Em*
And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me
G       Bm*                 A           Em
And ooh la, the world just chewed her up, and spat her out


etc.


There is one repitition of the verse chords before the second verse lyrics start.

For the "pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty little petticoats"
thing just play the verse chords.

Hope that helps. I am almost 100% sure this is how it's played having seen a video of an
performance of it. The strumming rhythm is a bit weird as it changes from verse to
Just play along to the recording to get the feel for it. I apologise again for my lack 
mucial theory knowledge.
