Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][Dsus4][D]

[Verse 1]
I can't keep [D]pace with you
Give you something wild
I can change the place with you
[G]Turn you into something
[D]

[Verse 2]
Action comes to him who waits
If he's not gone cold
I can turn you into [G]lead
I can turn you into gold
[D]

[Verse 3]
Read [A]the small print
[G]The philosophers' stone
But I'm [D]grateful
[G]The philosophers' stone
But I'm grateful
[D]

[Verse 4]
In the coffin of guitars
There her music lies
Foliage and [G]solos
Growing from her eyes
[D]

[Verse 5]
This is [A]England
[G]The philosophers' stone
But I'm [D]grateful
[G]The philosophers' stone

[Interlude 1]
But I'm grateful
[D][G][D][G]
[D]

[Verse 6]
Nazi in [D]a wheelchair
And a cardigan
And a V- necked [G]sweater
He's a sad old Nazi man
[D]

[Verse 7]
He's so [A]friendly
[G]The philosophers' stone
But I'm [D]grateful
[G]The philosophers' stone
But I'm [D]grateful

[Verse 8]
[D]
Bury me in cellophane
Underneath a vault
I can climb back out [G]again
But it's not my [D]fault
I can climb back out again
What can [A]you do?

[Verse 9]
[G]The philosophers' stone
But I'm [D]grateful
[G]The philosophers' stone
But I'm [D]grateful
[G]The philosophers' stone
[D][G]
