   C majorC                 C6C6
If my friends could see me now, driving round just like a film star,
   C7C7                  G+G
In a chauffeur-driven jam-jar, they would laugh.

Dm7Dm7         G7G7        C majorC     G+G
 They would all be saying that it?s not really me.
Dm7Dm7         G7G7       C majorC     G+G
 They would all be asking who I?m trying to be.

   C majorC                 C6C6
If my friends could see me now, looking out my hotel window,
      C7C7                FF
Dressed in satin strides and two-tone daisy roots.
FF          C majorC      Dm7Dm7       C majorC
If my friends could see me now I know they would smile.

C majorC        G7G7     A minorAm       C7C7       | FF DmDm |
Sitting in my hotel, hiding from the dramas of this great big world.
A minorAm      E7E7  A minorAm       C7C7   | FF C majorC | Dm7Dm7 C majorC |
Seven storeys high, looking at the world go by-y.

C majorC          G7G7            A minorAm
Sitting in my hotel room, thinking ?bout the countryside
  C7C7     | FF DmDm |
and sunny days in June
A minorAm         E7E7   A minorAm      C7C7 | FF C majorC | Dm7Dm7 C majorC |
Trying to hide the gloom, sitting in my hotel room.

If my friends could see me now, dressing up in my bow-tie,

Prancing round the room like some outrageous poof.

Dm7Dm7     G7G7        C majorC     G+G
 They would tell me that I?m just being used.
Dm7Dm7     G7G7       C majorC     G+G
 They would ask me what I?m trying to prove.

      C majorC              C6C6
They would see me in my hotel, watching late shows ?til the morning,
    C7C7               FF
Writing songs for old-time vaudeville revues.
FF          C majorC        Dm7Dm7     C majorC
All my friends would ask me what it?s all leading to.

Sitting in my hotel, looking through the window at the people in the street.
A minorAm      E7E7  A minorAm       C7C7   | FF C majorC | Dm7Dm7 C majorC |
Seven storeys high, looking at the world go by-y.
A minorAm       E7E7  A minorAm       C7C7   | FF C majorC | Dm7Dm7 C majorC |
Sitting in my hotel, looking at the world outside.

All my friends would ask me what it?s all leading to.
