Intro:  A   Bm   G   D4x
AOttoman Bmcouch, how Ghandsome your Dfurniture
Lovelier now, but dressed for a funeral
Begging you to sit for a portrait on the wall
To hang in the dark of some parliamentary hall
AElegant Bmclothes, you Gwant to be Dseen with her
Under your tweeds you sweat like a teenager
Begging you to sit for a portrait on the wall
To hang in the dark of some parliamentary hall
AToday is for DyouG  A  
They laid it Dout for youG  
AFor you
There will be Dsix bells a-ringing and Gwhite women singing for Ayou
But this Dfeels so unnatural Gto Peter Gabriel, Atoo
AAll of the Bmcards and Gall of the Dtime it took
Soon it's all lines of red in a leather book
Begging you to wait for a minute by the door
Your creeping feet where they've never been before

Intro: 4x

A Bm G D

Ottoman couch, how handsome your furniture

Lovelier now, but dressed for a funeral

Begging you to sit for a portrait on the wall

To hang in the dark of some parliamentary hall

A Bm G D

Elegant clothes, you want to be seen with her

Under your tweeds you sweat like a teenager

Begging you to sit for a portrait on the wall

To hang in the dark of some parliamentary hall

A D G A

Today is for you

D G

They laid it out for you

For you

D G A

There will be six bells a-ringing and white women singing for you

D G A

But this feels so unnatural to Peter Gabriel, too

A Bm G D

All of the cards and all of the time it took

Soon it's all lines of red in a leather book

Begging you to wait for a minute by the door

Your creeping feet where they've never been before

A D G A

Today is for you

D G

They laid it out for you

For you

D G A

There will be six bells a-ringing and white women singing for you

D G A

But this feels so unnatural to Peter Gabriel, too

A D G A
