A minorAm C minorCm A minorAm FF
I only went in to get wellington boots
A minorAm FF D MajorD C majorC
‘Cause a friend had insisted on going camping in the Lake District for his stag do
DmDm
Never really been the type of guy to kill time in a sports retailer
C majorC
I saw the World Cup final and I played a bit of netball as a teenager
DmDm
But all the ski-boots, bikes, dumbbells got me feeling a bit out of my depth

Then I saw you and you took away my breath
A minorAm
Well this feeling’s new to me
G+G D MajorD
Never thought I’d be so enamoured with a store employee so outdoorsy

I think I’m in love with the girl who works on checkout six in Decathlon
Haven’t known her that long

But all I hear is birdsong
G+G FF A minorAm
When I see that girl on checkout six in Decathlon
Yes, I’ve fallen headlong
D MajorD
Chemistry? We had none
G+G C majorC DmDm
But it’s early days, we only met for 40 seconds

She’s got a tan, I’ve got anaemia
F#F# C majorC FF
She looks like she spends her winters skiing, I’ve never been, yeah
A minorAm G minorGm
Bet she rides a bike to work, I work home in PJs
She’s got a Fitbit, I’ve just got this watch off eBay
DmDm C majorC
So we don’t share the same aesthetic
DmDm
Maybe you’re looking for a boy who’s unathletic
You can teach me snowboarding
C majorC
I’ll play you all my recordings
Show me how to be sporty

I’ll show you how to play the organ
We’ll both find it so rewarding
G+G
Having pancakes every morning
A minorAm
And then you’ll go and start your shift in Decathlon
Got these feelings so strong
D MajorD
All I hear is birdsong
FF A minorAm
When I see that girl on checkout six in Decathlon
So glad I didn’t stay home

Gonna have to pop back in and browse the badminton accessories or golf sweaters

Gazing at you from the table-tennis section
