[Verse 1]
F
 You said we should look out further
C
 I guess it wouldn’t hurt us
F                                     C +Riff
 We don’t have to be around all these coffee shops


[Verse 2]
F
 Now we’ve got that percolator
C
 Never made a latte greater
F                         C +Riff
 I’m saving 23 dollars a week


[Verse 3]
F
 We drive to a house in Preston
C
 We see police arrestin’
F                            C +Riff
 A man with his hand in a bag


[Verse 4]
F
 How's that for first impressions
C
 This place seems depressing
F                                    C +Riff
 It’s a Californian bungalow in a cul-de-sac


[Verse 5]
F
 It's got a lovely garden
C
 A garage for two cars to park in
F                                                C +Riff
 Or a lot of room for storage if you’ve just got one


[Verse 6]
F
 And it’s going pretty cheap you say
C
 Well, it’s a deceased estate
F                                        C +Riff
 Aren't the pressed metal ceilings great?


[Verse 7]
F
 Then I see the handrail in the shower
  C
A collection of those canisters for coffee, tea and flour
      F                                      C +Riff
And a photo of a young man in a van in Vietnam


[Verse 8]
F
 And I can’t think of floorboards anymore
C
 Whether the front room faces south or north
F                                    C +Riff
 And I wonder what she bought it for
