Verse
D                     Em
Oh, the word's on the street
                     A      D
You've found someone new
                       Em
If he looks nothing like me
                  A     
I'm so happy for you

Pre Chorus
C              A
I heard an old girlfriend
D                 F#
Has turned to the Church
C               A
She's trying to replace me
                D
But it'll never work

Chorus
D          
'Cos every touch reminds you of
Bm
Just how sweet it could have been
Em
And every time he kisses you  
          G
It leaves behind the bitter taste of saccharine

A bad cover version of love
Is not the real thing
Bikini-clad girl on the front
Who invited you in

Such great disappointment
When you got him home
The original was so good
The one you no longer own

And every touch reminds you of
Just how sweet it could have been
And every time he kisses you
You get the taste of saccharine
It's not easy to forget me
It's so hard to disconnect
When it's electronically reprocessed
To give a more lifelike effect
Now come on!

Oh, sing your song
About all the sad imitations
That got it so wrong...

Bridge
            D
It's like a later Tom and Jerry
         Em
When the two of them could talk
         A                G
Like the Stones since the 80s
                          D                      
Like the last days of Southfork
Like Planet of the Apes on TV
    Em
The second side of 'Til The Band Comes In
        A                  G
Like an own-brand box of cornflakes
                            D
He's gonna let you down, my friend

Tell me 'bout it...
