VERSE 1: 

      C                                 C6 
If my friends could see me now, driving round just like a film star, 
     C7                                   G 
In a chauffeur-driven jam-jar, they would laugh. 

Dm7                 G7               C          G 
  They would all be saying that itā??s not really me. 
Dm7                 G7             C         G 
  They would all be asking who Iā??m trying to be. 

      C                                 C6 
If my friends could see me now, looking out my hotel window, 
           C7                               F 
Dressed in satin strides and two-tone daisy roots. 
F                   C            Dm7             C 
If my friends could see me now I know they would smile. 


C G7 Am C7 | F Dm | Sitting in my hotel, hiding from the dramas of this great big world. Am E7 Am C7 | F C | Dm7 C | Seven storeys high, looking at the world go by-y. C G7 Am Sitting in my hotel room, thinking ā??bout the countryside C7 | F Dm | and sunny days in June Am E7 Am C7 | F C | Dm7 C | Trying to hide the gloom, sitting in my hotel room.
VERSE2: C C6 If my friends could see me now, dressing up in my bow-tie, C7 G Prancing round the room like some outrageous poof. Dm7 G7 C G They would tell me that Iā??m just being used. Dm7 G7 C G They would ask me what Iā??m trying to prove. C C6 They would see me in my hotel, watching late shows ā??til the morning, C7 F Writing songs for old-time vaudeville revues. F C Dm7 C All my friends would ask me what itā??s all leading to.
C G7 Am C7 | F Dm | Sitting in my hotel, looking through the window at the people in the street. Am E7 Am C7 | F C | Dm7 C | Seven storeys high, looking at the world go by-y. Am E7 Am C7 | F C | Dm7 C | Sitting in my hotel, looking at the world outside.
ENDING: C C6 If my friends could see me now, they would try to understand me, C7 F They would ask what on earth Iā??m trying to prove. F C Dm7 C All my friends would ask me what itā??s all leading to.
