Intro: G 

G 
Lately I’ve been seeing things, 
G                       D       C            G               D 
Belly button piercings in the sky at night, 
D                   C               
When we’re side by side, 
G                                                                    D       C 
And I don’t mean to rain on anybody’s cabaret, 
C                       G                               D 
One of those games you’re gonna lose, 
D                    C                     G 
But you wanna play it just incase, 

G 

                                      C                     D             G 
And now it’s getting dark and the sky looks sticky, 
G                         C                    D    G 
More like black treacle than tar, 
G                 C   D 
Black treacle, 
D    G                         Em                      Cm                     G 
Somebody told the stars you’re not coming out tonight, 
                  Cm 
And so they found a place to hide. 

G Bm Em 

G 
Does it help you stay up late? 
G                             D          C 
Does it help you concentrate? 
C                G                                       D 
Does it tune you in, when you chew your chin? 
D      C                          G 
Am I ruining your fun? 
G 
And you talk the talk alreyt, 
G                                                  D           C 
But do you walk the walk or catch the train? 
C               G                      D                    C 
You wanted it, you got it, but you don’t want it now. 

G 

                                      C                     D             G 
And now it’s getting dark and the sky looks sticky, 
G                         C                    D    G 
More like black treacle than tar, 
G                 C   D 
Black treacle, 
D    G                         Em                      Cm                       G 
Somebody told the stars you’re not coming out tonight, 
                  Cm 
And so they found a place to hide. 

G Bm Em 

G 

                                    C                              D                G 
And now I’m out of place and I’m not getting any wiser, 
                         C                         D               G 
I feel like the sun dance kid behind a synthesiser, 
         Em                               C                   D 
And I tried last night to pack away the laugh, 
          G                  Cm 
Like a key under the mat, 
            C                           D                          G Bm Em 
But it never seems to be there when you want it, 
C                    G Bm Em 
Black treacle, 
C                    G Bm Em 
Black treacle, 
C                    G Bm Em C 
Black treacle. 

End on G
