Verse (no bass)
Em
 She said to me,
Bm
 Go-o steady on me,
D                           A
 Won't you tell me what the wise men said when they,
Em
 Came down from heaven,
Bm
 Smoked nine till seven,
D                    A
 On a ship that they could find,
But they,

(Bass rejoins)
Em
 Couldn't escape from you,
Bm
 Couldn't be freed of you,
D                          A
 And now they know there's no way out,
And they're,         

Bridge
G 
 Really sorry now for what they've done,
                A                           
They were three wise men just trying to have some fun,

CHORUS
Am           C
 Look who's alone now,
           G
Its not me-e-e,
           D
Its not me-e,
Am                C                 G              D
 Those three wise men they've got a semi by the se-ea,
Am              F  
 Gotta ask yourself the question,
G                D
Where are you no-ow?
Am             F 
 Gotta ask yourself the question,
G                D
Where are you no-ow?

Verse (No bass, no percussion until 'caught')
Em
 Really sorry now,
     Bm
They weren't to know
         D                 A
They got caught up in your talent show,
            Em                             Bm
With your benictor little bastards and your fancy dress,
         D                    A
Who just judge each other and try to impress,
But they,

Em
 Couldn't escape from you,
Bm
 Couldn't be freed of you,
D                          A
 And now they know there's no way out,
And they're,        

Bridge

Its not me-e,
Am                C                G              D
 Those three wise men they've got a semi by the se-ea,
Am             F 
 Gotta ask yourself the question,
G               D
Where are you no-ow?
Am             F 
 Gotta ask yourself the question,
G                D
Where are you no-ow?
