Top Of The Form chords by Squeeze

Am Dm Em    Am
     We had PE on Tuesdays And English on Wednesdays
Am Dm B7 Em
     School was a prison Where I served my time
F C Am B7
    The teachers all loathed me My attitude fooled them
G F#m F D                      Am
     They quite often nailed me To any old crime
Am Dm Em Am
     Life was so different For underachievers
Am Dm B7 Em
     Who grew up surviving On scraps they were sent
F C Am B7
    The painters, the singers The being unusual
G F#m F D                       Am
    They ducked and they dived Until they were fed

C
Normal
    G
Would send me to sleep
   F          C
So I made my escape every day of the week
C
Normal
    G
Would not teach me much
  F              C
So I stayed at home and watched Starsky and Hutch
F/A       G  F/A      G   Am
I'm top of the form I'm top of the form

Am Dm Em Am
     I never read Shakespeare Or understood Latin
Am Dm B7 Em
     I lived in a small house With no books at all
F C Am B7
    But there was a record That I kept on playing
G F#m F D
     And I had a suitcase Out in the hall
Am Dm Em Am
     Life was so different Or have I just grown up
Am Dm B7 Em
     And turned into someone I feared I would be
F C Am B7
    The teacher who caned me Is now on the inside
G F#m F D                  Am
    He's getting me back for my history

C
Normal
    G
Would lead me to drink
  F            C
So I moved out and stuck my head in the sink
C
Normal
   G
Meant nothing to me
   F
But that's just the way
  C
It turned out to be
F/A       G  F/A      G
I'm top of the form I'm top of the form

    F
We had fish on Friday
C
Roast on Sunday
F
Salads in summer
F/A       G
Fresh from the ground
  F
We all peeled potatoes
   C
While mum made the crumble
F
My memory savours
F/A       G
The love that we found

Lead Break to end
F C F F/A G F C F F/A G  Am Dm Em Am
