Believe it or not, it took me two weeks to complete this tab, and i'm not quite
sure if it is entirely correctly. However, it sound quite good played under the
original one.
Corrections of any kind, welcome.

E                 F#           G                C
 Practice doesn't make perfect when you're interbreeding
E                 F#           G                C
 Speaking drivel can it get confused with heavy breathing
E                 F#              G                 C
 Mixing drinks at water holes get snarled up in the suburbs
   E                F#                 G                C         F-F D-D
 Meandering through this and that, you are suspected of vagueness

A             C#m      B              G#m7  G       F  B
 When work is done, go to Villa Rosie every night - So tasty
A          C#m   B              G#m7  G       F  B
 Go form a queue at Villa Rosie every night - So tasty

[E - F# - G - C] X2

  E                F#             G               C
 Across the common every day, you come across the fine line
     E             F#              G              C
 But wearing boots can prevent the leeches in the long grass
E               F#               G                C
 Eating between meals stifles the appetite, is it healthy?
E                 F#            G             C      F-F D-D
 Coming home that nagging doubt there in your belly


A             C#m      B          G#m7  G       F  B
 And all the while at Villa Rosie every night - You're tasty
A          C#m      B          G#m7  G       F  B
 A sweeter life at Villa Rosie every night - So taste....


*No Chord during Intro 1

*Pre-Chorus: [F-F D-D]

A             C#m      B          G#m7  G       F  B
 All this has come to Villa Rosie every night - They're waiting
A          C#m      B           G#m7  G       F  B
 So form a queue at Villa Rosie every night - So tasty
A            C#m      B                   G#m7  G       F  B
 Don't break your own back at Villa Rosie every night - We're tasting
A       C#m        B           G#m7  G       F  B
 A sweeter life at Villa Rosie every night - So tasty
                                            (Outro starts here)
