G
You were the whisper the thing
                      C
the whisper the thing
G
and you knew the mark of the cowards
                             C
and taking the second swing
Am         
but you'll never chase 
              G
what you cant catch
Am                C              G 
and life is never what you would expect, no no no

C           
It's champagne for the children
G
Mozart for the cat
C
it's champagne for the children
G                C             G
Mozart for the cat and that is that


G
You were the king of the castle
                        C                        
the king of the tallest hill
G                                                         
and you kept you pennies and dimes 
                          C
stuck under the window sill
Am                                 G
but your saving up for what you'll bet
Am                         C     G
and life is never what you would expect, no no no


C           
Its champagne for the children
G
Mozart for the cat
C
its champagne for the children
G                C             G
Mozart for the cat and that is that


G
Cold calls and flies on the walls
                          C
and love in the bathroom stalls
G                                                          C 
the answers are over your shoulder you don't need a crystal ball
Am                    G
hey romeo where's your heart
Am                  C             G
our love is just a chance to fall apart


C           
Its champagne for the children
G
Mozart for the cat
C
its champagne for the children
G                C             G
Mozart for the cat and that is that
