G                            C
  I left my school I left my job
G                           C
  You saw me looking like a slob
Am           F#                 Bm          C
  When I was young you were the only fun in town
 
G                   C
Everyone thought it was a shame
    G                   C
For Belle and the boy Sebastian
Am                 D 
  Belle was OK but oh Sebastian
C                   Bm                     Am
Went too far again, crashed his car in the rain
 
G                                  C
  He wants to love and he wants to care
G                                   C
  But when the girls hear that they think he's so square
Am                          D
  Sebastian for once just leave your troubles home (x2)

G                               C
  She goes to school around the way
G                             C                Am
  The boys are queueing up to tell her she's a star
       F#         Bm            C
Poor Sebastian is heading for a fall  

G                  C  
Everyone though it was a shame
    G                   C
For Belle and the boy Sebastian
G                   C
Everyone thought it was a shame
Am                 D
  Belle was OK but oh Sebastian
C                   Bm                     Am
Went too far again, crashed his car in the rain
D            C                    Bm                Am
Oh Sebastian wrote his diary that he would never be young again
        C                D
But you will, fellow you are ill
                  G                  C
You better take a weight off of your mind and listen
              G
To what other people say
      A                C
Cause things are going wrong your own way
 
instrumental: G  C  G  C  Am  D  Am  D  Am  F#  Bm  C

repeat last verse.
