All changes are covered. Just not repeated.
146 degrees
Dm........................G.....................A# You've just walked in this room but things have changed forever now Dm..........................G..............A# Because you're the only thing in view
And when my girlfriend asks you: "Please could you tell me how
You get them all to stare at you?" Am........C........A#...................F You smile and say it's not your fault Am.......C.............A#................F Meanwhile the world's come to a halt
And once you've caught our gaze you'll never let it go again
But, oh, we'd never want you to
Because we're your puppets, yeah, women just as much as men
No one can take their eyes off you
You smile and say it's not your fault
Meanwhile the world's come to a halt
Quiet bit, Dm......Noisy bit same as chorus: Am,C,A#,F

Lollobrigida
........Bm.........G..........A...........F#m
You shake, I sweat, it stings
.......Bm...........G........A...........F#m
I ache, you're wet, I cling
Your thighs, your breasts, my cheek
Your eyes, undress, don't speak
Since when, on time, you smiled
Since then, oh I'm, beguiled
So pure, your skin, tiptoe
I'm sure, you win, don't go
..........D.................G.....Em.........A
Like Gina Lollobrigida in "Belles de Nuit"
Like Gina Lollobrigida in "Belles de Nuit"
I stare, for too long, and you woke
Your hair, a song, I stroke
I'm glad, this breeze, so still
You're sad, but please, I will
Like Gina Lollobrigida in "Belles de Nuit"
Like Gina Lollobrigida in "Belles de Nuit"

Your Charms
A.............................Bm
You always seem to laugh
..........................A
For every photograph
..............................G
If I didn't know you better
I'd say you were flirting with the males
Because, oh, it never fails
To make them stare, etc.
MIDDLE EIGHTH: Bm..(and mix with Bm7(x24232).........G
But the ploys of womankind could not be
Further from your mind
That's never your intention
So I'm always amused
Whenever you are left confused
At being centre of attention
MIDDLE EIGHTH
................D
And darling, I just can't think clearly
Bm.....................................F#m
It happens when I'm in your arms
And my heart is pounding
G
How pathetic is this sounding?
D
I'm unquestionably
Bm...........................F#m
Captivated by your charms
And the way you thrill me
G
I think I always will be
Now you're tossing back your hair
And you're completely unaware
Of how they're drooling over you
And it is no coincidence
Yes, it's your very innocence
That makes them act the way they do
And darling, I just can't think clearly
It happens when I'm in your arms
And my heart is pounding
How pathetic is this sounding?
I'm unquestionably
Captivated by your charms
And the way you thrill me
I think I always will be
I just can't think clearly
It happens when I'm in your arms
And my heart is pounding
How pathetic is this sounding?
I'm unquestionably
Captivated by your charms
And the way you thrill me
I think I always will be
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Heels
F.....................A#
Oh I wish you wouldn't let
C..........................Dm
Me read the letters that you get
F.......................A#
Well, yeah, he's just a fool
...............C.....................A
But that doesn't make it any less cruel
But I can't look away
Especially when you say
You haven't read them yet
Cos there's someone else that you've already met
He says he misses you
But thinks you've been untrue
But he won't intervene
With your master plan whatever that might mean
But he can't understand
Why you got so offhand
You crushed him with your heels
And I know exactly how he feels
.......A#........C
And I don't really care
...................F...............Dm
That you've found another lover
A#....................C
Because I know he'll be gone
.........Dm
The moment that you get bored
And I know I shouldn't stare
When you kiss him like you kissed the others
He's just another one
Who thinks you should be adored
You need a paramour
Someone to pluck your eyebrows for
And if no-one wants to play
Well, you'll probably stay in bed all day
But have you ever paused
To calculate the pain you've caused?
You say you want to live
But one day, something's got to give
I don't really care
That you've found another lover
Because I know he'll be gone
The moment that you get bored
And I know I shouldn't stare
When you kiss him like you kissed the others
He's just another one
Who thinks you should be adored
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unzip
..................................C
And you know this is just like a children's fantasy
...................A..................................................E
It's like a scene from "The Singing Ringing Tree"
But I can tell by your face that you're plagued with doubt
We can hold hands because nobody's about
...........................C#m..A.........................................E
Just unzip your inhibitions but, honey, leave on those shoes
It's completely your decision, but what have you got to lose?
..........C
You don't have to whisper every time you speak
................A..............................................E............C
And you don't have to jump at every single creak
So you changed your mind, you think it isn't right
At what point did you think of him last night?
Just unzip your inhibitions but, honey, leave on those shoes
It's completely your decision, but what have you got to lose?
MIDDLE EIGHTH: E C E C C#m A E C#m A E
You say you've got to telephone him once at least
Well how come your feelings for him just increased?
Look he's never ever going to find out where you've been
So wait until tomorrow before you start feeling mean
Just unzip your inhibitions but, honey, leave on those shoes
It's completely your decision, but what have you got to lose?

Apres Ski
Intro: Am C G E
.......Am......F................G........F...E
The radio's on, it's some jazzy 60s song
She makes him laugh out loud by trying to sing along
But how many years has it been since she was seventeen?
Still, she is flattered that someone so young's so keen
.................Am.......................................C
And so she won't refuse, well, what's she got to
........................G...............................E
lose, when she sees him glancing?
Am...............F......................G................E
This kind of evening could be life enhancing
And so they talk all night until it's almost light
and then it's back to his place
Then she sees the uneasy look on his face
A gentle breeze shakes the petals from the trees
She says "Do what you like" because boys aren't hard to please
It's over fast, although he tries to make it last
And then they lie and watch the sky turn overcast
It didn't mean a thing, it's not embarrassing, it was just disappointing
She goes back to work and all her friends are pointing
And in a sixties song she'd go and prove them wrong
but this is too confusing
She gets what she wants but still ends up losing
F..........................................C
She thought she'd turn a boy into a man
F..............................................C.....E
But in real life some things don't go to plan
And so she won't refuse, well, what's she got to
lose, when she sees him glancing?
This kind of evening could be life enhancing
And so they talk all night until it's almost light
and then it's back to his place
Then she sees the uneasy look on his face
It didn't mean a thing, it's not embarrassing, it was just disappointing
She goes back to work and all her friends are pointing
And in a sixties song she'd go and prove them wrong but this is too confusing
She gets what she wants but still ends up losing

Superman
Intro: Dm E Am A#
F............................A#
I think I'm going to just tear you apart
F.........................................................A#
Because this time you've been playing havoc with my heart
F..............................A#.........................Gm..............C
But it's already over, even if I'm the last to know
At least there's something on which we're both agreed
Oh yeah, we both know exactly what you need
Someone to satisfy you, someone who'll follow where you go
...............................F.................Dm
And that sounds just like a job for Superman
..............F......................Dm
Not the lazy slob that you think I am
Gm..............................Am
Because nothing I could do
.......................A#................................C
Is ever going to be quite good enough for you
It's not as if you can say I haven't tried
But you want something that I just can't provide
I'm not a super hero; I just can't find a cloak and change
That sounds more like a job for Superman
Not the lazy slob that you think I am
Because nothing I could do
Is ever going to be quite good enough for you
..Dm..........................E
Oh I know what this is all about
.........Am.......................A#
The wine goes in and the truth comes out
Don't give me that "unsuited" stuff
You just don't think I'm good enough
Because that's a job for Superman
Not the lazy slob that you think I am
Nothing I could do
Is ever going to be quite good enough for you
I don't see how you can carry on
I don't mean just now, I mean with anyone
I just wanted a romance
But little did I know I never stood a chance
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Because I'm Beautiful
..................F............................Am
And with so many people in the room above
.....................Dm...........................A#
That was the weirdest place that I've ever made love
I was so sure you were trying to impress
That my heart stopped dead when you slipped out
......................................Gm
Slipped right out of your dress
C................A#................F
I knew that you would say yes
Yeah, what if we'd been caught?
Gm....C..........A#..........F
I......... never gave it a thought!
Everybody wants to know
How every party seems to become my show
They ask me why my life is never dull
I just say: "Because"
"Because I'm beautiful"
Oh I'm sure there's no man you can't pull
But that was just a joke!
I saw his face when you spoke
Dm...................................A#
And when the conversation turns to sex
Dm........................................A#..............C
You always say something no one expects
F....................C...........Am........A#
And that's exactly why I love you
That's why I can't get enough of you
You're unconventional but it's not intentional and
that's the greatest thing about you
You're a premium bohemian and I couldn't live one day without you
So beautiful!
I'm sure there's no girl you can't pull
But that was just a joke!
Well I saw her face when you spoke
And when the conversation turns to sex
You always say something no one expects
And that's exactly why I love you
That's why I can't get enough of you
You're unconventional but it's not intentional and
that's the greatest thing about you
You're a premium bohemian and I couldn't live one day without you
And that's exactly why I love you
That's why I can't get enough of you
You're unconventional but it's not intentional and that's the greatest thing about you
You're a premium bohemian and I couldn't live one day without you
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let's Pretend
The four chord progression is repeated through the entire song. Genius!
....................Am
And it might seem unorthodox
D.......................................G................................Em
But I am trying to remove all traces of your personality
So I'm sending you a box
Full of stuff you left when you decided that you'd had enough of me
So here are your things starting with a pair of earrings
And I just bet this is your Corrs cassette
It might sound a little lame
But we had something so good that I don't want to remember any more
Because whatever it became
It started out as something that I've never quite experienced before
I put this in because it looked feminine
I'm not quite sure if it was mine or yours
Can we pretend we never met?
Pretend there's nothing to forget
Can we pretend we weren't in love?
Let's pretend we've no-body to be reminded of
And now that I've begun I'm finding things everywhere
When I think that I am done, I'll find some underwear
Can we pretend we never met?
Pretend there's nothing to forget
Can we pretend we weren't in love?
Let's pretend we've no-body to be reminded of
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wow
Em...................................................C
You've avoided questions that could've easily spoilt the mood
B..................................................C...................................D
Like where does my girlfriend work, what's her favourite food?
I think I know someone who could give me an alibi
So, yes, I think I've just proved that I'm prepared to lie
But there is nothing quite like a secret rendezvous
I think I know already what I'm going to do
Outside the air is cold and your arm slips into mine
When you invite me in, you know I won't decline
G
But I don't want to stay forever
C.....................................................Em
I don't want to leave my girlfriend but, wow!
....................................D
This isn't happening the way I'd planned
I'm not going to say never
But I don't want to fall in love right now
Well, just as long as we both understand
As you lead me up the stairs, I'm leering at your thighs
You're revealing parts of me I just don't recognise
You leave behind a scent that lingers in the air
It draws me up the steps, but I should not be there
But I don't want to stay forever
I don't want to leave my girlfriend but, wow!
This isn't happening the way I'd planned
I'm not going to say never
But I don't want to fall in love right now
Well, just as long as we both understand
C.............................................................G
You're telling me, almost compelling me to stay
C
But don't close the door, because I'm still not sure
G............D
OK
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your Time Starts Now

The above is the intro (if stuck read the tab section) It plays throughout the verses. Or you can cheat using the following chords as shown below.
E...G#m...A.....................................E....G#m..A
I've given everything I have to give but... it's not enough
And this might sound a little negative but I'm not that tough
And well, yeah, that's the difference there between us, you're so naive
When they promise you the world, oh they don't
really mean it, it's just make believe
B...............A..............E................A
Yeah, I've heard it all before
B.....A
No, I don't care any...
More things to do but no time left to do them, so why persevere?
More goals but no opportunity to pursue them, so why am I here?
B..............A............E.............A
Yeah, I've heard it all before
.................................(Middle eighth)
B........A....................E...A...F#m...B
No, I don't care any more
.............C#m....G#m....A
Maybe I need to try again
But I don't know how
You say you've got the answer
Well your time starts now
I need to try again
I don't know how
You say you've got the answer
Your time starts now
Yeah, I've heard it all before
No, I don't care any more
Outro same as middle eighth: E..A..F#m..B
