[Verse]
Bm                                      A   
■  A song about a search for the Albert Hall
            A                        
I thought I saw you in the Battleship
           D      Bm7       
But it was only a look alike
        A                         
She was nothing but a vision trick
D         Bm7          
Under the warning light
        Gbm  
She was close
A                            
Close enough to be your ghost
Gbm    A                      
But my chances turned to toast
                 D    Bm7                     
When I asked her if I could call her your name
A Gbm           A                        
I ■   thought I saw you in the Rusty Hook
D             Bm     E7   
Huddled up in wicker chair
  A                            
I wandered up for a closer look
    D                    Bm           
And smooched whoever was sitting there
        Gbm  
She was close
        A                      
And she sqeezed me very tightly
Gbm    A                     
'til I asked awfully politely
D      Bm7        E7          
Please can I call you her name
A Gbm A Gbm
■ ■   ■ ■  


[Chorus]
      D            Bm       
And I elongated my lift home
Gbm                            D     
Yeah I let him go the long way 'round
Bm                           Bm7     
■  I smelt your scent on the seatbelt
    E                    A     
And kept my shortcuts to myself
D  E A                                       
Oh ■ I thought I saw you in the Parrot's Beak


[Verse]
D                 Bm7        
Fiddlin' with the smoke alarm
A                                  Dmaj7
It was too loud for me to hear her speak
    D         Bm7       
And she had a broken arm
   Gbm7 Gbm  
It was  close
                  Gbm           
So close that the walls were wet
                        D       
And she wrote it out in Letraset
       Bm7           Dbm7     Dbm
No you can't call me her name ■  
A                         Dbm         
■ So tell me where's your hiding place
A                          Dbm         Gbm 
■ You see I'm worried I'll forget your face


[Chorus]
    Gbm                
And I've asked everyone
Bm  Bm7                  E                     
I'm beginning to think I imagined you all along
  D                 Bm  
I elongated my lift home
     Gbm                       D     
Yeah I let him go the long way 'round
  Bm                      Bm7     
I smelt your scent on the seatbelt
    D                           A
And kept my shortcuts to myself ■
Dmaj7                    Bm7      A

[Chorus]
A                        D          
I saw your sister in the Cornerstone
                Bm7           
On the phone to the middle man
A                                 
When I saw that she was on her own
    D                       Bm7           
And that's when I knew that she understand
        Gbm  
She was close
A                          Gbm   
Well you couldn't get much closer
             A                   D         
She said I'm really not supposed to but yes
                Bm           A    A
You can call me anything you want ■
