Chris Difford - Fat As A Fiddle
(Difford/Hewerdine)
From the 2008 studio album, The Last Temptation of Chris
[Intro]
Em x4
[Verse 1]
Em
I'm never thin. I'm never svelte, I always wore the bigger belt
Bm Em
I never thought I needed help choosing what to eat
Em
Each mouthful a real treat
D Em
But when I look to see there's a greater part of me
[Verse 2]
C Em
Now I see the men who work at the gym
Em
They have a ripple with every limb
Bm Em
They never have this excess skin to cover up their age
Em
We're on a different page
D Em
I look like a tree there's a greater part of me
[Chorus]
C G D C
It's so hard to put on my socks each morning
G
When I wake I see myself
D C
When I was thin and the hearts I used to break
[Verse 3]
Em
Now I have tits just like my mum, I'm out of breath before I run
Bm Em
I like to eat because it's fun, but it comes at such a price
D
I'm on the old brown rice and the herbal tea
Em
For the greater part of me
[Chorus]
C G D C
It's so hard to put on my socks each morning
G
When I wake I see myself
D C
When I was thin and the hearts I used to break
C G D C
So hard
[Verse 4]
Em
I always played the boy in goal, cross country runs became a stroll
Bm
I was the doughnut and the hole
Em
But inside I felt great, I always licked my plate
D Em
My face full of beans, there's a greater part of me
[Chorus]
C G D C
It's so hard to put on my socks each morning
G
When I wake I see myself
D C
When I was thin and the hearts I used to break
C G D
And it's so hard to pull in the street
C G
But it never seems too late, it's so hard
[Outro]
E x4
