Em C Em C Em
Come on baby, explain it to me one more time
C D Cmaj7 Em
I think I'm catching on at last I feel it scratching at my mind
C Em C Em
Say it clearly, I'm not usually this dense
C D Cmaj7 G
Run it past me once again, I think it's starting to make sense
Am C D G Am C D (INTRO II 1,2)
Coming round, I'm coming round, coming round, slowly coming round
 
 
I've heard it's easy, I've heard it's all the latest rage
But I don't understand it all, I come from a different age
Where if you fall in love, you never tell her how you feel
Until she tires of holding on and now it's losing its appeal
Coming round, I'm coming round, coming round, slowly coming round
 
 
(herein lies 3 minutes and 5 seconds of beautiful, severally-tracked
guitar over INTRO I chords as only could have been played by NS)
 
 
Now I find all the things that we were told
Were really nothing more than lies spread to keep us in control
I always thought that I was quick to comprehend
I can't believe it took so long, at least I sussed it in the end
 
Am C D G Am C D (INTRO II 1,2)
Coming round, I'm coming round, coming round, slowly coming round
 
C D G Am C D G
Coming round, I'm coming round, coming round, slowly coming round
Am C D G Am C D G
Coming round, I'm coming round, coming round, slowly coming round
Am C D G Am C D (INTRO II 1,2)
Coming round, I'm coming round, coming round, slowly coming round
