[Verse]
(no guitar, bass only)
Although you're trying not to listen
I bet your eyes are staring at the ground
She makes a subtle proposition
I'm sorry love, I'll have to turn you down
G F# Bm
Oh, he must be up to summat
G F# Bm
What are the chances, sure it's more than likely
G F# Bm
I've got a feeling in my stomach
G F# Bm
I start to wonder what his story might be
G F# Bm
What his story might be
[Chorus]
Em F#m Bm
They said it changes when the sun goes down
Em F#m Bm

And look here comes a Ford Mondeo

Isn't he Mister Inconspicuous

And he don't have to say 'owt
G F# (v2) Bm
She understands she's here to get picked up
G F# (v2) Bm
And she's delighted when she sees him
G F# (v2) Bm
Pulling in and giving her the eye
G F# (v2) Bm
Because she must be fucking freezing
G F# (v2) Bm
Scantily clad beneath the clear night sky
G F# (v2) Bm
She don't stop in the winter, no and...
[Chorus]
Em F#m Bm
They said it changes when the sun goes down
Em F#m Bm
And they said it changes when the sun goes down
Em F#m Bm
And they said it changes when the sun goes down
Em F#m Bm
Around here
Em F#m Bm
They said it changes when the sun goes down
Em F#m Bm
Over the river, going out of town
Em F#m Bm
And they said it changes when the sun goes down
Em F#m Bm
Around here
A F#
Around ... here, oh
