Lisa Hannigan – Oh You Pretty Things chords

[Verse 1]
DWake up you sleepy head
CPut on some clothes, shake up your bed
DPut another log on the fire for me
CI've made some breakfast and coffee
DLook out my window and what do I see
  B                                    EmA crack in the sky and a hand reaching down to me
                        CAll the nightmares came today
                               DAnd it looks as though they're here to stay


[Verse 2]
DWhat are we coming to?
CNo room for me, no fun for you
DI think about a world to come
          CWhere the books were found by the golden ones
DWritten in pain, written in awe
     B                                      EmBy a puzzle man who questioned what we were here for
                       CAll the strangers came today
                        DLooks as though they're here to say


[Chorus]
D       F                      GOh, you pretty things (oh, you pretty things)
GDon't you know you're driving your
F         G       D    F CMamas and Papas insane
D       F                      GOh, you pretty things (oh, you pretty things)
GDon't you know you're driving your
F         G       DMamas and Papas insane
       FLet me make it plain
    G                      F    C     DYou gotta make way for the Homo Superior


[Verse 2]
DLook at your children
CSee their faces in golden rays
DDon't kid yourself they belong to you
CThey're the start of a coming race
    DThe earth is a bitch
      DWe've finished our news
B                                EmHomo Sapiens have outgrown their use
                       CAll the strangers came today
                               DAnd it looks as though they're here to stay


[Chorus]
D       F                      GOh, you pretty things (oh, you pretty things)
GDon't you know you're driving your
F         G       D    F CMamas and Papas insane
D       F                      GOh, you pretty things (oh, you pretty things)
GDon't you know you're driving your
F         G       DMamas and Papas insane
       FLet me make it plain
    G                      F    C     DYou gotta make way for the Homo Superior


[Chorus 2]
D       F                      GOh, you pretty things (oh, you pretty things)
GDon't you know you're driving your
F         G       D    F CMamas and Papas insane
D       F                      GOh, you pretty things (oh, you pretty things)
GDon't you know you're driving your
F         G       DMamas and Papas insane
       FLet me say it again
    G                      F    C     DYou gotta make way for the Homo Superior
