E C D A
My, my the clock in the sky is pounding away

Verse 2:

Clicks, clacks, riding the backs of giraffes for laughs
Is all right for a while
The ego sings of castles and kings and things
That go with a life of style

Wanting to feel, to know what is real
Living is a lie
The porpoise is waiting, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Coda
G D
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
G Bm
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

If playing these chords in the open position then
instead of the A6/C# you can play F#m7 and strum from the C#
