[Verse]
       Eb              Ab     
If you come to find me affable
            Eb          Bb
And build a replica for me
          Eb             Ab       
Would the idea to you be laughable
     Eb   Bb       
Of a pale facsimile


[Chorus]
            Eb              Ab    
So will you come to burn an effigy
   Eb              Bb        
It should keep the flies away
             Eb           Ab         
And when you long to burn this effigy
                    Eb              Bb  
It should be of the hours that slip away
     Cm   F
Slip away ■


[Verse]
Bb Ab          Eb                 Bb
■  ■  It could be you it could be me
            F                 Ab  
Working the door drinking for free
Cm                    G7          
Carrying on with your conspiracies
            Ab                         
Filling the room with a sense of unease


[Chorus]
     Bb                 Eb          Cm       
Fake conversations on a nonexistent telephone
Fm                            Bb                      Eb      Cm   
Like the words of a man who's spent a little too much ■  time alone
F                           Bb        
When one has spent too much time alone

So will you come to burn my effigy
Eb                 Bb        
It should keep the flies away
Eb             Ab            
If you long to burn an effigy
             Eb             Bb          
It should be of a man who's lost his way
Cm
