[Verse]

A                            F#m  F#m/E
  In the past I always tried
A                                        E
  But I never got amongst the glittering prizes
A                          F#m  F#m/E
  I put it down to confidence
A
  Or something trendy
E
Like an emotional complex

[Bridge]

D            F#m             E
 Pretty soon I'm gonna change
D            F#m
 Pretty soon I'm gonna change
D            F#m
 Pretty soon I'm gonna change
D                     E
  You won't recognize me

[Chorus]

D A  E A  D A  F#m

D     E       D       E
Glittering prizes for me

D A  E A  D A  F#m

D     E       D       E
Glittering prizes for me

[Verse]

A                              F#m
  I wear a clean shirt every day
A                              E
  I quite enjoy my job as an office boy
A                             F#m  F#m/E
 But the novelty begins to fade
         A
'Cause I never get the chance
               E
To play with executive toys

[Bridge]

D            F#m             E
 Pretty soon I'm gonna change
D            F#m
 Pretty soon I'm gonna change
D            F#m
 Pretty soon I'm gonna change
D                     E
  You won't recognize me

[Chorus]

D A  E A  D A  F#m

D     E       D       E
Glittering prizes for me

D A  E A  D A  F#m

D     E       D       E
Glittering prizes for me
