1.  Your multilingual     business friend    has packed her bags and fled,
                                         E        - G                                             D
    leaving only ash-filled ashtrays     and the lipsticked unmade bed.
                Bm          Em            D                                   A
    The mirror, a reflection,  has climbed back upon the wall,
D                                             E        - G                                       D
    for the floor she found descended,      and the ceiling was too tall.
 
           D7                      G
Your trouser cuffs are dirty,
                      E                            A
and your shoes are laced up wrong,
              F#                          Bm      
you'd better take off your homburg
                       G                     D
'cause your overcoat is too long

  D                                    E                   - G                                      D
2. The town clock in the market square,      stands waiting for the hour,
                                                       E                - G                                            
    when its hands they won't turn backwards, 
                                          D
    and on meeting will devour.
                 Bm                           Em                D                       A
    Both themselves and also any fool who dares to tell the time,
D                                               E     - G                                             D
   and the sun and moon will shatter,    and the signposts cease to sign.

How to practise this song

1
Put your capo on fret 3
Clamp the capo on before you start — otherwise the shapes won't sound like the original.
2
Practise the barre chord Bm
Bm is a barre chord. Lay your index finger flat across all strings and press firmly; practise it on its own until every string rings clearly before you use it in the song.
Open
3
Practise the change: A7 ↔ A
Play each chord for 4 beats, then 2, then 1 — with the metronome at 60-70 bpm. Only push the tempo once the change is clean and on time.

Great first song
Focus on clean chords — let every string ring. Speed comes by itself once the shapes are right.
