              Intro: C#m  G  C#m  G 
        C#m  G  C#m  G 
 
Verse 1:
C#m                   G 
   Last night when my psyche's 
C#m                        G 
Subcommittee sang to me in its scary voice 
 
C#m                        G 
   You slowly dropped your eyelids 
     C#m 
When true love takes a grip it leaves you  
G 
Without a choice 
 
 
F#m          G 
   And in response to what you whispered in 
   A/E 
My ear 
        F5+     F#m 
I must admit sometimes 
D  C#       F#m             C#m 
    I fantasize about you, too 
 
Verse 2:
C#m                  G 
   The leader of the free world 
  C#m                             G 
Reminds you of a wrestler wearing tight  
Golden trunks 
 
C#m                   G 
   He's got himself a theme tune 
     C#m                             G 
They play it for him as he makes his way to the ring 
 
 
F#m          G 
   And in response to what you whispered in 
   A/E 
My ear 
        Faug     F#m 
I must admit sometimes 
D  C#       F#m             C#m 
    I fantasize about you, too 
 
( C#m  G  C#m  G ) 
 
Verse 3:
G                 C#m  G  C#m 
   In the daytime 
A        G              Gm 
Bendable figures with a fresh new pack of  
 F#m 
Lies 
       A/E     Faug  F#m 
Summat else to publicise 
D  C#                F#m     E     D 
    I'm sure you've heard about enough 
 
 
D           E  
  So in response to what you whispered in 
   C#m 
My ear 
            F#m 
I'll be upfront 
    D          E        Fº  F#m  
Sometimes (sometimes) I fantasize about  
         E  D# 
You, too
