	  		E                       B 
Sebastian you're in a mess 
                               F#m 
You had a dream, they called you king of all the hipsters, 
      C#m            B 
is it true or are you still the queen? 
E                                  B 
   Like getting blood out of a stone 
                            F#m 
The city left you lost and gone 
                                                     C#m 
B 
You came to dance, but there's no poignancy when they all leave you... 
Amaj7         Emaj7 
standing alone 
Amaj7            Emaj7 
   standing alone 

E                      B 
The wider issues of the day 
                             F#m 
just pass you by, you're gonna pay 
                             C#m           B 
for looking at the floor when people talk to you. 
E                          B 
You wrote a book about yourself 
                         F#m 
The people left it on the shelf 

You'll write another one 
 C#m                     B                        Amaj7            Emaj7 

 Now you've got a story that's worth talking about. 
Amaj7        Emaj7 
talking about 
Amaj7        Emaj7

        Emaj7               Amaj7 
Are you happy with yourself?

Are you talking to yourself? 
        Emaj7              Amaj7 
Are you happy with yourself?

Put the book back on the shelf 
E                       B 
I've seen the company you keep 
                         F#m 
You're on the sofa hidden deep 
                           C#m             B 
While on the telly Sid James speaks you like God 
E                           B 
You're always looking for a sign 
                         F#m 
But boy you blow it every time 
                         C#m 
You hear a voice begin to speak 
      B              Amaj7          Emaj7 
You ignore it and go softly to sleep 
Amaj7          Emaj7 
softly to sleep 
Amaj7          Emaj7 
softly to sleep 

        Emaj7               Amaj7 
Are you happy with yourself? 
        Emaj7               Amaj7 
Are you happy with yourself? 
        Emaj7               Amaj7 
Are you happy with yourself?
